I am a slightly crunchy momma (and wife!) embracing my crunchiness and striving to be ever crunchier.
I am passionate about breastfeeding, co-sleeping, baby signing, elimination communication and general attachment parenting. I am obsessed with hitting the road full time to unschool with my family. I have also recently started my dreadlock journey.
I am also interested in tarantulas, macro photography and minimalism. I have two daughters: Tyler is 14½, Sasha is 3½. I had one more, whom my mother adopted, she is a whopping 23 years old now! Our son, Spencer, is nearly 1½! I have been married for 3½ years. What else would you like to know? Oh, and I'm old; 40 years old.
My newest passion is advocating for Down Syndrome Awareness. At 18 weeks pregnant, we got the news that our son has Down Syndrome. I was well-prepared for his arrival, but there is so much more to learn and share about our little man.
I've also been asked to include the origin of my name. No, it is not my given/birth name. When I first started dating my ex-husband, he gave me the nickname. It comes from an old Bugs Bunny episode (which means it is actually a reference to an even older movie), in which the Monster says "I'll hug him and squeeze him and love him and call him George!" I chose the spelling myself, so as to be different.
Anything else you'd like to know?
