Hi, lurker coming out
Hi ladies, I have been lurking for a couple of months. I figure I should come out and introduce myself. I know, I should change my screen name, but it goes to an old deadend mailbox so I haven't done it yet.
My name is Heidi, DH and I are expecting our LO on around June 28th and live in the Northern VA area. I convinced my DH that we should CD and he is on board! I started lurking here to get some ideas, I have been to the EFF blog and it was hugely helpful. As, all of you have been through your tireless answering of CD questions! I have most of my newborn stash purchased and have to restrain myself from continuing to purchase diapers. I think it is my favorite thing to do right now.
A little about our EFF transition, I have converted my husband to Vinegar and water and baking soda for the majority of our cleaning needs. He even agrees that the vinegar is way better than fabric softener! I am working on going more organic with our food consumption, currently we buy as few processed food items as possible. We are in the process of prepping our garden plot so we can grow our summer veggies. I am debating if I should get into canning so we can store some of our summer delights for longer!
I look forward to getting to know you all a little better! Please feel free to ask me any questions

Hello! Yes, you should get into canning! Last year was my first try, and I loved it. It was much easier than I expected, and I used some of my tomatoes in chili just last night!
