What I'm for.

There's a great song by one of my favorite bands and one of the lines is,"you don't have to guess what I'm against, if you know what I'm for."

I'm sitting here watching Wy climb under our furniture and rip a book to shreds. While the inner neat freak in me is yelling to pick it up - I'm not. I'm sitting here watching my son laugh hysterically at himself tear this book up. If that makes him happy that makes me happy. I feel like we can learn so much from children.

I know if someone showed me a picture of what my life would be today, 3 years ago I don't think I would believe them. Having children truly opens your heart, eyes and mind.

I've seen a couple things around the Internet that I think are a little disturbing. How crunchy are you? ( take our quiz!) mommy wars, food wars who can out crunch who more. I don't think parenting should be a competition. People love to judge but at the end of the day I think we're all doing the best we know.

I figured since this is a new blog and I started right where the old one took off, I'll rewind a bit and fill you in on some of the things I'm for. For those who don't know.


Messy living rooms. I would much rather play with Wy then keep his toys in their bin.
Attachment parenting. I think Wy is an equal. I love that we all are in tune with each other.
Extended breastfeeding.
Peaceful parenting. I think yelling, or hitting wont result in anything but anger. Both in you and your children.
Babywearing. Wear that baby! You can not spoil a baby.
Healthy eating habits. I believe healthy eating is a lifestyle, not a diet. Good health begins and ends with what you put in your body.
Vaccine information. Do your research. Be informed.
Homeopath>conventional

These are all things I will talk, rant and rave about. I'm always open to discussion but not debates. I do not feel like I need to defend myself to anyone who's answer is "because my doctor said so."
