Hi, I'm Teresa(34 until next month) and I live in a burb of Philly with DH, Jake who is 3.5yrs(PDD-NOS) and Ella,2.5yrs (no diagnosis but something going on). I am originally from Kilkenny, Ireland and have lived in the states for almost 14 years.
Thanksgiving we usually spend with DH's aunt which usually pretty fun but also a little stressful because my kids eat nothing typical in a Thanksgiving dinner and we get a lot of "they'll eat it if their hungry". Oh, the holidays.....I just can't wait! On second thoughts, Paula, can I come to your house????????
