Starting a blog, again!

After a few blogging attempts and not having much to share I'm giving this blog thing another shot. I've had the opportunity, recently, to share some of my crunchy mama knowledge and multiple people have told me "you should start a blog". Thats where I am today! I guess today I'll start with a back story about who I am & then start on my most favorite of topics, cloth diapers tomorrow!

My name is Laura and I'm a stay at home mom. My husband Anthony & I have a beautiful daughter, Lillian. She was born after 50+ hours of labor. I labored naturally for 44/46 hrs; had an epidural; slept; woke to find my water broke, baby turned & descended, fully dilated; pushed for 41 minutes & out she came. Lillian arrived March 19, 2010 @ 3:41pm, 8lbs 9oz and 21 inches long. She was beautiful.

I cannot believe that she's going to be a year old in less than a month, time sure does fly! As she's approaching her first birthday we've learned a lot about more natural or as some people call them 'crunchy' alternatives. Breastfeeding was a give in for us as was cloth diapers due to cost effectiveness & me quitting work. However, I've discovered so much more. At the top of my list right now is Amber Teething necklaces. Why? Well, because at only 11.5 mths Lily is cutting all 4 of her 1yr molars! It's been a battle. Ya know what....I lied, new post coming up! We'll start with amber as it's on my brain!
