Happy World Down Syndrome Day!

There have been a lot of changes here at the homestead recently, and I have had to take a mini-hiatus from RoShamBaby. This is a big weekend full of excitement, so I will be sure to update soon.

Until then, I figured I would leave you with a smile.

Cloth V.S. Disposable . . . It's not just about the environment

So here I was again, pregnant with my son and trying to wade through the virtual piles of research I had compiled on diaper options. You would think this would be a super easy decision . . . but I was a Crunchy mom-to-be in a world full of Cashmere and Silk.

No amount of shaking the box, or tossing out guesses wi ll clear up the mystery. So I wait. I will admit that th ere are times when I wonder who I am, now that I am not "Jen with Alterna" . . . or "Jen with Aloxxi".

(as Jackson's Amber necklace peeks out of his collar) Please don't get me wrong, I am in no way offended by this simple assumption. But I'm sorry, have you seen this kid? He is ALL boy, if I've ever seen one. Jackson sporting his Amber necklace in polished yellow Now back to the necklace. About one week before my lil' monster decided to make his earthly debut, I got a little package in the mail that I was really excited about. It was a Dark Cherry Raw Amber* Teething Necklace. It was so cool that I wanted one for myself. I had only recently learned some pretty interesting things about Amber. First things first, the most common question I have heard . . . Is it for chewing? No, it most definitely is not. It actually warms to the body temperature, and then releases trace amounts of a natural healing substance cal
