Alternative Housewife

J

I'm Janine, wife to Donny and mama to Sebastian (age 18 months). We live (with our annoying dog) in a simple, cozy apartment in Portland, Oregon, where we are working on building our home and our lives with style. I believe in buying secondhand, in basic and natural products, and in living fabulously on any budget. More about us.

I Believe

… that everyone says “they grow up so fast“, but you don’t believe it until you watch your own kid practically double in size overnight. He is now seven weeks old and while he’s been smiling for awhile now, this is the first one we captured on-camera.

… in Co-Sleeping. It is the best feeling ever to cuddle as a family, and the only reason I am not a zombie all day every day. Breastfeeders, I highly recommend learning the side-lying feeding position if you don’t use it already. It has improved my sleep quality (and Sebastian’s) exponentially.

… that How I Met Your Mother is one of the best shows on TV and I can’t believe I didn’t discover it until their sixth season! Happily, that means lots of reruns to catch up on.

… that you should wait before you donate. Set aside items for donation and re-evaluate in a week or two before dropping them off. Throwing away that faux fur jacket on a whim would have been a bad idea!

    That is so true about babies growing up so fast! It seems that my baby girl will wear an outfit one day and then five days later it won’t fit!

    It’s funny the effect that just a couple of months can have on a person. How much someone can change in such a short span of time.

    Let alone a few decades…
