We lived in Austin, Texas, until I was 9 years old. We did most of our grocery shopping at The Whole Foods Market, and I miss that awesome place. I am actually making a fun trip to Austin on Monday to spend some time with my cousin Tyffany and do some shopping for items you just can't get where I live.
I always used to think my grandma and mom might be a bit paranoid. Your mind sure does take a dramatic shift when you have kids of your own. I want to do all that I can to avoid pesticides and harsh and unnecessary chemicals in the products we use in our home. Now, don't get me wrong, I am still going to dye my hair and paint my toenails (I painted them black last week and LOVE it!!)
But I think it is important to limit the amount of crap that I put into my kids world...you know, the world that they still stick in their mouths and suck on. :) How does one go about this? I had no idea...
One day when I was still pregnant, I played around on this website that a good friend had sent me. I was shocked at the chemicals that were in some of the stuff I was using everyday. So I bought a LOT of my babycare items according to the "shopping guides" that I found on this website. I don't think we are perfect over here, but I do feel better about the fact that the shampoo, sunscreen, and diaper ointment I use is not loaded with chemicals and junk.
I was just printing off some shopping guides this morning since I want to get a lot of stuff at Whole Foods next week and saw that they had these buttons for your blog. YEA!!! Now I can share the wealth of information and any of you reading can get the same stuff if you want to. :) I just wanted to share the info in case anyone was interested.
I realize this stuff is usually more expensive, but I will see what I find on Monday and let everyone know if I found some good deals. Have a great day, and enjoy playing with the new buttons!
