Linky dinky doo

Today went well for me. I managed to stay away from garbage sugars, take my supps, drink water and go outside with my kids! Woowoo for me :)
What I ate today:

No breakfast (I really intended on it but we got busy and I forgot!)
Mid-morning snack - a Skookum Bar
Lunch - almond butter and banana sandwich on spelt bread
Dinner - leftover Chicken Cacciatore and brown rice

Looking at this list, I realize that this is probably not enough food for a woman who is nursing two children full time. Hm. I'll have to work on that part, I guess. Good old me...from one extreme to the other. *sigh* I am starving at the moment so I think I may grab a handful of rice chips and eat a bit of the stellar onion dip that I made a couple days ago for a blessingway I held.

I have a killer headache tonight, but that is to be expected from the lack of sugar. Damn addictions. No amount of water, lavender or peppermint is getting rid of it either.

I went down to a friend's store today to buy a couple wet bags for my diaper bag. Up until now I have always just used old plastic grocery bags, but I am trying to cut plastic grocery bags out of my life completely and this was the last step. I also got a really cute pair of Baby Legs for Indigo. A friend had gotten me an orange pair despite my insistence that $18 is too much for leggings for a baby, but I have to admit that I love them. They're great for kickin' around the house in a diaper when you need something on their legs but don't want to screw around with taking pants on and off for diaper changes. I've recently started EC with Indigo so the Baby Legs come in extra handy with him having a nakey butt a lot of the time!

Why the hell am I doing EC, you ask? Well, 5 years ago I bought 24 Mother-ease fitted diapers and tie dyed them. I have had others in my stash over the years, but the ME dipes stayed as my tried and true workhorse dipes. They are now on their last legs, having been used for 5 years straight and by three kids. They are literally see-through in spots and I don't wanna buy more diapers! Ok, correction...I would love to buy more diapers but cannot justify the money. Indigo is my last baby (*sob!*) and I just can't see spending more money on diapers (or switching to disposables) once these diapers start tearing. So, to reduce the wear and tear on the diapers and hopefully prolong their life until Indigo learns to use the potty full time, we shall EC! I've been doing it for about 3 weeks now and it's actually not hard at all. I am getting pretty good at catching pees and poops...the key is paying attention ;)

That's it for tonight...I am hungry and if I'm going to eat something it has to be now before any children wake up and need snuggling! I think this is the linkyest post I've ever posted...yay me! lol
