Mommycon 2017

I'm so excited that mommycon is coming back to Atlanta this year. I went last year and had a blast.
Do you have young kids or are expecting and want to attend a convention about parenthood. Last year they had babywearing, potty training and sleep training classes. I personally loved the sleep classes. It really helped to fix my daughters sleeping problems. 
There were also some awesome giveaways and a nice gift bag that you get for just attending. There was a large hall with lots of great companies and products. I loved being able to gets hands-on with some of these products.
If you are planning on attending this year I have a discount code you can use to save $5 off your regular admission tickets. Go tohttps://mommycon.com/events/ to select your event and use code clothdiaperingmum17 to take advantage of this discount. I will definitely be at mommycon Atlanta and can't wait to see what they have up their sleeves. Will I see you there?

Garden adventures

This year we have decided to try our hand at organic gardening. We thought it would be so exciting to grow our own food and important for our kids. I've used this as a learning experience for the oldest baby.

Last year we started our own compost. Its been so much easier than we would've imagined and so satisfying. As a family of 5 we only go through one trash bag a week because most of what we use is recyclable or compostable.

So far we have had 3 raspberries and 2 blueberries. They taste so much different than store brought fruit. I'm loving our little home garden. We will have a large harvest of berries soon as there are so many unripe berries growing.



We are also growing a few other plants. So far we have our cucumbers, peas and carrots in the ground and tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, pumpkins and watermelons in starter pots. I will be sharing more on our gardening expedition.
