My newest obsession

Babywearing. And Cloth Diapering.

I seriously cannot get enough of either. OK...so I haven't actually started to CD yet, but once my order is finished (should be done on Monday!) I plan to be a CDing mama. I'm loving the idea of being able to save money (no more buying diapers!!!whoo hoo!) being better to our wonderful planet and having less diaper rashes. I'm starting with some pretty simple all-in-ones. Which are basically washable disposables. I'd like to try some pocket ones, just so I can stuff them more for over nights and trips and such. But I'll start with the all in ones and go from there. I'm super excited!

And babywearing. I love to baby wear. About a month ago my step mom and I made an AWESOME ring sling. It's so super easy to just pop my little creature in there for grocery shopping and such. It's also great for around the house for chores and such when he's having a rough day and doesn't want to be put down. I also have a backpack carrier and a normal pouch (just got it today!!). He loves these things. And they make life so much easier for me.

In a couple of months when he starts eating real food (not that breast milk isn't real food...it is, and it's awesome!) I plan to make most of his food. I'm sure I'll become quite obsessed with that as well. That way I know exactly what he's eating and I know it's been prepared right. I'm turning into quite the crunchy mama over here. I'd like to go totally organic...but that's pretty expensive.

So how are you guys going green or crunchy or whatever?

An Introduction

Hello people (probably no one) reading this blog. I'm determined to make this blogging thing work this time around. My goal, as of right now, if to have 5 new blogs by the end of the month. My last blog, started over a year ago, only has 4 posts. But this one will be different. I promise.

Now, allow me to introduce myself. I'm June. OK...not really. My name is Erin. My nickname, which no one calls me, is June. As in June Cleaver. My college friends and BBC friends gave me this nickname because I'm domestic. I'm a 22 year old wife and mother. I stay at home, all day, every day, with my wonderful son, Dalton. I'm married to the love of my life, Theodore aka Ted. I love to cook. Love love love to cook. I love to scrapbook, but haven't done it in years. I need to start again. I love to sew, but I currently do not have a sewing machine. I don't love to clean, but I love things being clean. So I clean on a regular basis. Being a stay a home mommy is my true calling in life.

My husband and I recently moved to the Denver area. He is going to law school. We live in the ghetto. I don't know too many people around here, so most of days are spent playing with the creature aka Dalton aka monkey aka the baby. While I love what I do, this has been a huge adjustment for me. And there are many funny things to tell, recipes to share, and vents to post. Thus this blog.

This little guy is the creature. He's my high maintenance little bundle of joy. He's a tiny little dude that made his appearance into the world a month early. He has reflux, doesn't like to sleep, is simply obsessed with me, and is currently dozing away in his bouncer.

He's giving me a real run for my money. I spent 8 months reading all the books and things on the internet I could about pregnancy...only to find out that at the end of it all I have a baby That I have to deal with. It's been....interesting to say the least. But I love it. Every single second of it. I love to cuddle him. I love his oohs and ahhs. I even love his screams, but don't tell him that.

All in all, I love my life, so I'm going to blog about it.
