Today was the first day of summer camp! Where Peyton is attending summer camp she has the option of eating the lunch provided by the program (a federally funded and approved lunch program) or bringing lunch from home. Well, I've looked over the menu and I can honestly say I do not see how it's a balanced lunch. There is so much processed, carb filled foods with very little protein. Isn't this the time, in Peyton's childhood, where she needs protein, calcium, fresh fruits and veggies? So I've ...
Caillou’s Pet Parade
Preschoolers love Caillou! I know when Peyton was little, Caillou was one of her favorite shows.

There are 13 stories on the Caillou's Pet Parad including - Caillou and Gilbert Caillou is Scared of Dogs Caillou Walks a Dog Caillou Goes Birdwatching Callilou the Jungle ...
5-Minute Nighttime Bible Stories
Little ones love to listen to stories. Plus reading to your child is a wonderful way to increase their vocabulary. Peyton is fascinated by God and likes to hear the bible stories. But reading the actual bible to her can be a dry read or sometimes a tad too graphic. That's where 5-Minute Nighttime Bible Stories comes in. 5-Minute Nighttime Bible Stories is filled with the stories of the bible but brought down to a child's level. For example, when reading about Noah's Ark the focus is on how 2 ...
National Get Outdoors Day
Did you know National Get Outdoors Day is coming up? Peyton and I love to spend time outside. I'm actually planning out our camping trips for the summer now. But if spending a weekend, outside, in a tent sounds a little much keep reading for ways to get your family outdoors. As kids it was easy for us to spend time outdoors – to go barefoot in the grass, play in the mud, explore the wilderness. As we get older we find ourselves struggling to find the time to do the things we once loved. As ...
Zootopia is Out on DVD
Wohoo!! Zootopia was released today on DVD, Blue Ray and Digital. This morning, I woke Peyton up early and we headed to Target. We were the first ones there! The young man was still stocking the shelves with Zootopia copies and we bought the first one this morning at our local Target. With our Target special edition Zootopia in hand, we headed to the checkout and then off to my office to spend the day. Peyton has been waiting so patiently for Zootopia to come out. She saw it THREE times in ...
Madison’s Place First All-Inclusive Park
Any family with a child has been to a park. If your child has a disability you quickly notice there is not much your child can enjoy. Whether your child has a physical, emotional or mental disability it can be a challenge to find a park where they can participate and feel safe. Now imagine you have two or three children, all under 5 but one has to wear braces on their legs. This greatly diminishes what activities the whole family can participate in. Madison's Place in Woodbury, Minnesota ...
