A (Sun)day in the Life

I thought I would share a day in the life of the Piñata home. I decided to do Sundays because it’s our busiest morning of the week. I know for most people it’s a day of rest, but with both Mr. Piñata and I working for our church, it’s several hours of crazy! When I tell people […]

GAPS for FPIES: Part 3

I’m so excited to share with you all the progress we have made in the past several months with Sweet P’s FPIES! If you aren’t sure where we have been, check out my previous posts here and here. Sadly, right after my last post, on her 5th day of chicken, Sweet P had a negative […]

Sweet P is such a happy and sweet little girl, and her one year birthday celebration was such a gift! To be quite honest, she had a rough […]

GAPS for Sweet P’s FPIES: Part 2

Before sharing where we are with Sweet P, I feel like I should probably explain a bit about what the GAPS diet is. It’s a bit complex, but the summary from their website says that it was originally derived from the “Specific Carbohydrate Diet.” Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride adjusted her protocol to fit the individual healthcare […]

Adventures in Potty Training: Part 2

I haven’t written a potty-training post in about a year and a half. Thankfully we have come far enough for me to consider Little Piñata officially potty-trained. (You’d assume so after 1.5 years, right? But, actually this officialness is quite new!) First of all, he did amazing with going #1 on the potty from the get-go. […]
