more food. Ive become a foodie. i dont even know what that means..



i made some wonderful soup the other night! Cheesy cauliflower and potato soup. WOW i had no idea how rich and yummy the cauliflower makes soup. TRY IT! Again it is from the awesome cookbook i got for pregnancy. I also threw together some pasta on the side. Home made tomato sauce with chicken and bow tie pasta. YUM!


ps



I also made some blueberry muffins! I had no idea the blueberries explode when you use fresh. It makes for such a beautiful muffin experience. Just sayin....

Hello Kitty


Well, I'm sad to be retiring our favorite onesie. This is the only clothing we have with the Hello Kitty on it. So its our fav! ..... However, today i realized it was painted on. So its going in the box of retired clothes. It 0-3... Josie is 6 months old. hehe so it was time. I took a picture and we peeled it off before bath time. Thankyou to my long time client and his wife for giving it to us! We wore it out y'all!

Cloth Diapering

Im so glad that Amanda and my sissy talked me into cloth diapering. I took a picture so you can see that these are NOT your mother's cloth diapers.

I love that they almost NEVER leak. I think i have had one leaky cloth diaper and it was probably my fault.

I love that i don't blow through diapers, saving us money.

I love how easy it is to just pop them in the washer.

Most importantly i love that they give Josie's skin a break from all the chemicals in the diapers.

And as a side note... i ended up getting a set of flannel wipes as well. So her skin gets a break from all the chemicals in regular wipes too. Of course we don't cloth diaper 7 days a week. I'm only a part timer. So if you happen to be on the fence about cloth diapers. DO IT! We bought Bum Genius and they are awesome. I was hesitant because i thought it would be too complicated but actually it is so simple.
