Prepared

Standards of my car go-to kit!
  • Diapers (Nothing worse than needing one, and not having one.)
  • Wipes ... Hello!
  • Hand Lotion, especially during riding season her hands get really dry
  • Sun screen
  • Chapstick
  • Hair ties and clips
  • Extra clothes, including jeans in case I'm not prepared on horse riding days
  • Chewy Tube (never can have enough of those babies!)
  • Board books (always great for long car rides!)
  • SNACKS! Juice boxes, cereal, dried cranberries, & banana's these rotate of course otherwise I would need more car airfresheners :(
And after everything is assembled and placed in the container I can put it in the car so I'm ready for almost anything! Um... sneaky hands trying to steal the chewy uh....
Oh Baby Girl - you are sneaky and clever but I saw that!!!!
I like to be prepared ... what can I say :) You could call me a bag lady! I have bags for the gym for school, for afternoon therapies, church, & horse therapy.

Chewy Tubes

How Chewy's took over My Life... A long time ago I thought things like, "Where are my keys?" or "Where is my phone?" now I seem to constantly say "Where is a chewy?" I can't escape it! It's like the blob in a horror movie. At one, very well organized point, I had a chewy in my purse, the car, the diaper bag, her bedroom, and a few in the living room. 
Now I am down to one (and yes I am singing 'one is the loneliest number' in my head.)

I don't know the exact day or time when my brain turned to a focus driven force to always be aware of the exact location of the Chewy's in the house but It happened. 

I know, I know they help with oral motor, oral strength, sensory processing, speech & I'm sure other valuable ways. And we can't seem to go anywhere without them so whether I was prepared for this or not the Chewy Tube has become part of the family!


Various chewy's - prefers the green and yellow

Oh and did I mention these babies are 'Adaptive' Oh yeah!! $10-15 a tube. And don't get me started on the vibrating chewy's they start at $25 - On AMAZON of all places :)
