thanks Steph

We have received a ton of nice stuff from Steph and her kids. As I look around the house I see many things that her kids enjoyed and now Jacob enjoys daily. Also some new things like the awesome sling and really, really cute pajamas.

Jacob and Jane

Jacob and I are so lucky to live with Jane. She will babysit at the drop of a hat and always makes Jacob smile and laugh. He loves spending time with her everyday.

carrots=bad

Today I have learned a few things about Jacob. He does not like carrots. He did at the time I was feeding them to him but since he woke up from his too short of a nap its been a lot of tears and dirty diapers. I think maybe they gave him a stomach ache. 

These are just an assortment of some pics. The middle one is from Friday when I gave him some yogurt to try. I think he liked it although it has way too much sugar to add to his diet daily.

cleaning

this past week I was cleaning and was reminded of the best cleaning product i have ever made. To be honest its the only I have made but I really like it and wanted to share it with you all. I found it in a great book called Clean House, Clean Planet

Alices Wonder Spray

Ingredients: liquid soap, white distilled vinegar,borax, purified water, and an essential oil

How to make: Mix 2 tbsp. of vinegar with 1 tsp. of borax. Fill the rest with very hot water. Shake until the borax is dissolved. Add 1/4 cup of soap last. To scent add 10-15 drops of an essential oil in a trigger spray bottle. 

I did not use purified water and used Method go naked dish soap and this cleaner cleans everything. I love it. I put some lemon essential oil and it smells so good and clean. I use this from the bathroom to the kitchen and seriously an amazed at how well it cleans, especially the top of the stove.

Happy cheap, nontoxic cleaning!!!!
