Z Recommends: The Z Report on BPA In Infant Care Products, Third Edition

I LOVE z recommends. It's one of my favorite blogs to check out and has been so helpful in so many areas. One of the things that my eyes have been opened up to since the birth of Ellie is the use of BPA in plastics. If you are interested in reading about it - check it out at the link in the title of this blog.

I'm not going to get into why using BPA-free plastics is important to me - I'll let you do your own reading for yourself if you are interested. But basically the same reason I choose to use organic foods w/ my daughter as much as possible is also the same reason I want her to use plastics that are safe. There are so many toxins in the environment and I know I can't keep her safe from all of them, but at least I can do my best with the things I can control. And according to this article there is a lot more brands out there that are offering "good" plastics now!

• she "talks" with her hands. She "says" please, more, eat, all done, book, ball (which looks the same as more!) and up. For anything else she want to convey to us she points and says "uh"
  

• she turn the lights off in her room and then shuts her door so she's in the dark
• she is TERRIFIED of the vacuum cleaner and the humidifier. She's getting less frightened of the drain in the tub
• she currently is very "attached" to mommy - but I found today that putting her in my ergo carrier on my back works wonders!
• She LOVES to blow on my growing belly and poke belly buttons of anyone who'll let her!
  

Welcome!

Welcome to my blog site. We'll see how much I use this! I enjoy checking out other peoples blogs and there are a few blogs and sites that I absolutely love which is what really drove me to make my own blog. I really want to share with others the things that I am excited and passionate about and thought that this is the easiest way for me to do it! Plus for those that live far away I hope to take the time to give updates on what is happening in the Burton household!
