For you Tita

Nathan’s grandma Tita requested more pics and videos of Medek…so this one’s for you Tita!

Dear readers – if you request, I shall deliver!

Inspiration – Supreme Diapers!

Okay I did have a moment of inspiration:

Costco Kirkland Supreme Diapers!

Why are these adapted? Well, I’ve noticed this phenomena here in Chile. Every couple of hours our friends run to the bathroom to change their kid’s diapers. They’ll ask us – don’t you need to change Nathan? Our answer is always – No, he’s good. Then the diapers we brought with us from the US ran out and we understood the phenomena – all of the diapers here leak after a couple of hours! And I remembered that when Nathan was younger he had a TON of accidents.

Then, Nathan’s uncle Brian recommended the Costco diapers. We were hesitant to buy diapers in bulk but hey, we figured we’d try. We were amazed to find that they are implacable – they last hours and hours, stay dry, and nothing leaks! Needless to say, Owen brought a whole bunch of them with him to us here in Chile.

So my contribution to Adapted Tuesday is – buy these diapers! You will have a lot less worry and hassle when it comes to diaper changes!

Lacking inspiration

I’ve been sitting at my computer for a really long time trying to figure out what to write about regarding “Adapted Tuesday” and honestly, nothing comes to mind. My “daily column” idea may not work after all, I think I am more of a spontaneous sporadic type of gal. Originally my idea was to write about equipment and other ways of making “life” accessible to kids like Nathan but unfortunately nothing’s flowing (except my boogers from this yucky cold).

Since I’m lacking inspiration, I will use this opportunity to highlight some posts which I’ve really enjoyed recently!

  • Don’t spit out Jesus Christ!
  • Gluten Casein Free Diet Explanation – Stacey reposted my explanation on the diet but I LOVED that she shared the success story of her twin boys – even though her kids have autism, they share the same basic problem – a compromised central nervous system – it just manifests differently!
  • Telling Time – Timmy is just SO cool..the things that boy figures out!
  • Excuse me
  • Sitting and Standing – I love how they are able/willing to adapt equipment and go with it!
  • Suzy rocking in Medek!
