Posting from my phone!

I just downloaded the app so I can make posts from my phone. I know, behind the times some what but sometimes I'm too lazy to turn my computer on lol. My bestie Amy watched Silas while I went to chem class today and everything went really well! He is now in a milk coma and passed out. Until next time!

Ugh, I've been bad about updating@

    So I have not updated in like 3 week and I feel horrible! Sooo many new and exciting things have happened since I made my last post. My mom came to town be cause my birthday was at the end of February! Now I'm 26 : / BUT...the most exciting thing that has happened was that I have started cloth diapering Silas!!!! I've been thinking about it for a while now and I even went to a CD class with my MIL to try to get her on board. Josh is so very against CDing.  when my Mom was in town was when I got our first prefolds, snappies, and diaper covers. After mom and I had got home from shopping I went back out again and during that time Josh came home and saw the bag from Fluff N Stuff (my new favorite store btw!) and tried to hide it from me!! Though I think he is starting to come around a little bit, he even helped me install our diaper sprayer. Right now I have 24 prefolds, 11 diaper covers, 5 snappies, 1 large doorknob wet bag, 1 small travel wet bag, and the Flo diaper sprayer. For washing the CDs I'm using soap nuts and wool dryer balls!!!

Non-toxic cleaning products

So today I'm going to attempt to make my first homemade all-purpose cleaner. I've been thinking about doing this for a while now and if it turns out well I might try making some other cleaning supplies as well. I'll make an update once I've finished!

Hello and Welcome!

Let me start of and tell you a little bit about myself. My name is Megan and I'm 26 and a first time mom of a wonderful 4 month old little boy Silas Trenton! I am also engaged to Josh, we have been together for almost 4 years. We live in Knoxville Tennessee and we are both working towards getting our bachelors degree from the University of Tennessee. I mainly wanted to start this blog to put some of my Ideas out there. At the present time, Josh, Silas, and I live with his parents and I'm very interested in ways to save money so we can get out of here and get our own place. Even though I want to save as much money as possible, with a new little one, i want to get so many things for him that I have gone a little nuts. It's ok though because I will not have to buy it all for the next little one!
