this week is for small victories.
mathew started a new (and much better, I hope) job
i joined a meet up group for mamas who are entrepeneurs in my area…and happened to meet my neighbor across the way
i sold my first custom shirt to a client and made an awesome contact (must stop wanting to adopt clients as friends)
my 8 month old daughter is peeing in the toilet…and i don’t mean the plastic baby ones either
i’ve been blessed with kind people in my life lately

Happy for you, but what is the reason for potty training your daughter so early?
Definitely not potty training yet!! Just trying out “elimination communication”, mainly because I thought it was a crock. It’s not…who knew? It’s kind of amazing. I can sit her on the toilet and say “psssss…” and she’ll go. It’s supposed to make potty training easier and earlier.. Give it a google, it’s pretty interesting stuff.
I hate diapers. I clothed diapered my kiddos.So I can totally understand potty training at a early age. I am called the recycling queen by my neighbors. Nothing gets thrown out. We even have a worm garden that we use. It is pretty cool!
We use cloth as well — and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Since being back we’ve kind of fallen off the recycling wagon. I suppose it’s because it is so much harder to recycle here and it was pretty effortless in Oz. I was surrounded by lots of people who cared there…one time I got my head bit off by a lady on the bus for not using cloth bags at the grocery store! There isn’t as much passion for the environment where I am living at the moment. I can’t wait until we have a house and can have our own garden and those sorts of things! The word idea sounds great…but would have to be my husband’s project as worms are the one thing I am deathly afraid of. I literally lose my breath if I see them on the pavement after it has rained — crazy, I know.
I Live in the states. I live in Oregon. Oregon is one of the top 3 states, that has less pollution. We are also at the top for states that recycle the most.
