What do you want learn from this group?:I'd just like input from other moms cause none of my RL friends make their own baby food.
Any questions you have?: Like I said before I'll prolly have some during this whole process.
I'm a baby wearing, co sleeping, organic buying, ERF, had to formula feed cause I never created milk hippie momma of a wonderful energetic 4yr old girl, Athena, a rollie pollie 6 month old boy, Noah, and I'm married to a jazz musican that rocks my world and just happens to be the best dad and stepdad ever, Trevor. I won't tell you how to rasie your kids if you don't tell me how to raise mine.
