Alicia and Sinisa live in the Chicago suburbs with their family. They are the parents of two active, sports playing boys (ages 7 and 8). When they are not at a game or practice, their family loves to travel, have family fun movie & game nights every weekend and explore the Midwest on day-trips together.
Alicia works full-time from home managing this blog along with running the kids to all their activities. She couldn’t function without her to-do lists and always has a Starbucks coffee drink in hand. In her “free time” she loves planning her family’s next adventure and hanging out in the backyard with her kids.
Sinisa works full-time outside the home and does his fair share of running the household. Sinisa enjoys cooking, playing video games with his kids and days where he can relax on the couch with his family. He loves Sobe drinks, making playlists on Spotify, sharing about his Croatian heritage and soccer.

I just saw a small comment in an email about Sensory Processing Disorder. I don’t know if it is you or a child. People think I am kidding, I can not tell if I am hungry or full. I need to eat on a schedule and a fixed amount. I actually set an alarm to eat or I wouldn’t. If I miss a meal I get really out of whack because I don’t know how much to eat or just forget it and go to the next meal. I have trouble starting to eat because I am not hungry and I have trouble stopping eating because I like the taste and do not feel full. I never put a name to it and I am 65 and have long ago given up asking doctors about it. Thanks for a possible name.
Hi, Alicia. I just found you on Twitter tonight. I am smili76. I am in the Chicago area. We use ABAChicago for our son’s therapy. They might have suggestions for you in terms of getting coverage for your son.
Where did you go for your son’s diagnosis? We went through Alexian Brothers, and our neuropsych gave us oodles of resources. I can send some your way, if you’d like.
How old is your son? Mine was 5 at diagnosis this past April. But we kind of knew all along…
Good luck!
Lisa
Stopping by from the Alexa hop. I’m now following you on FB and Twitter. Have a nice day!

Hey Alicia – Great content here – twitter & pin. Your story is touching and just know you got a new fan. I’m not a mommy I’m a Da :)
Hi Alicia, I just found this site and it’s great! I am a mom and not from Chicago so I’m always trying to find places to take my little JoJo (he’s 3). I’m also a dentist and I have a unique practice, a mobile dental spa. I started this practice after having my son and having a hard time finding a babysitter for every appointment and even putting things off. This way there is no excuse, I come to you! We treat kids, mommies and daddies. You can get your teeth cleaned while the kids run around the house. It’s also great for children with dental anxiety. So, I just wanted to share this info. Please look me up and call if you need me. Here’s my website: http://www.bellasorriso.com
Thanks!
I just found your site and I will be back to read more. Like your style.
