Wow! So it has been a long time since I've blogged about anything. Life is so crazy fast and beautiful.
Princess Lily Ana is growing like a weed! She is so cute and chubby and giggly! I am still in awe of her. She is just so cute and I am so blessed to have her as part of our little family!
Babycakes (Ethan, formally known as Little Man) is potty training! He is amazing! He just started one day and BAM! He had it almost down! He really doesn't have many accidents. He even makes it through naptime without wetting himself. I'm beginning on the outings without diapers though this scares me. We've gone out a few times without accidents but as soon as we open the door to our home he looses it. We'll have it down by Christmas for sure. Hard to believe he's not even 2 and he's training himself! The beauty of using cloth diapers I suppose.
Well Dad (FIL) was here for almost a month and we miss him. His fiance, Sariah (or however you spell it) was supposed to come but couldn't because of some exams she had to take. Hopefully she can come next year. At least Dad will be back for the month of June, though we hope to keep him longer. Babycakes just loves having him around, and so do I! Having 2 under 2 is quite challenging at times I loved having an extra hand around here.
Erick has returned home for the holidays. He is a cousin (really a close friend) who has been with us a couple months. He is an awesome father and it was amazing to watch how much he really missed and cared about his family. He maybe coming back in a few weeks however... hopefully with the whole family.
So that's the basic news around this joint.
Other than that I've become a bit of a Lactivist. Writing letters to newspapers, magazines and television shows to help promote breastfeeding. I'll blog about that later though since that deserves its own rightful entry. I'm quite passionate about the issue though and astounded how good breast milk really is. The more I read the happier I am I chose to breasfeed my children.
And I've learned to knit in the round with double pointed needles! I've made a single baby leg....
And I have such plans for future projects (if only I had more time to myself!)
Oh and what's more? We've gone natural. Besides doing the cloth daipers and wipes, I'm now using natural cleaning products! I love it! They smell good and they are good for our mother earth. I'm also cutting back on disposable products as much as possible. My Aunt would be so proud. I guess I've always been a tree hugger at heart, its about damn time I did something about it! Lol.
So Christmas is next week... doesn't even feel like it! Spring time weather paired with time flying by so quickly makes me not even realize it is that time again. We haven't even discussed our plans to celebrate yet. Lol. We still have a week right? Heehee. Well I better get to bed since Babycakes does get up early!
I'll try to post more often.... Sorry!
