Sunday Surf: Sunday Surf

I don't think I've read many new links this week, but here is what I found to share:

• I think I found this link to Mama Mo's Attached at the Nip on a Sunday Surf last weekend. I can so relate to what other bloggers have said regarding the freedom our children have at home vs. the battle when we take them to see relatives. (Yes, this is still from the holidays, but other visits, too.) Mama Mo tells us how to Set yourself up to succeed by choosing to home-proof your child rather than child proof your home. (Have lots of stuff accessible and LET your child explore, even if it isn't toys.) It is what we have done here and it works for us, though visiting family is always exhausting.
  
  
• I don't drink straight tap water. I don't know how much my Brita filter actually filters out, but I will say this: I have always felt that adding chemicals to our water (namely: fluoride) is a fishy practice. The idea of the government deciding such a big thing for the public is, honestly, scary to me. Well, Kelly (from UnschoolBus.com) posted to her FB how she felt vindicated about her own choices against fluoride when she read this article from the Associated Press: US Says Too Much Fluoride Causing Splotchy Teeth.
  
  
• Since I haven't read much new stuff this week, I'm also going to share with you some other blogs that do Sunday Surf. And I'll confess, I totally stole this list right off Hobo Mama (which is who got me started doing this blog, Wordless Wednesdays, and Sunday Surfs). So yeah, she should be the first blog I link here:
  
  • Hobo Mama; Trying every day to parent intentionally and with grace.
    
  • Authentic Parenting; Change the world... one parent at a time.
    
  • Maman A Droit; I'm a conservative Catholic stay-at-home mom who loves breastfeeding, co-sleeping, and anything else that means I get to snuggle my adorable son!
    
  • Navelgazing; Musings on my journey through new motherhood…
    
  • pocket.buddha; the pocket Buddha is there to add a touch of Zen to our lives
    
  • Breastfeeding Moms Unite!; Think. Act. Breastfeed.
    
  • Enjoy Birth; for a more empowering and enjoyable pregnancy and birth
    
  • A Domesticated Woman's Adventures
    
  • This Adventure Life; Homeschooling: It's not what we do, it's how we live.
    
  • The Parent Vortex; It's irresistibly engulfing
    
  • A Little Bit of All of It
    
  I had not yet visited most of those before today. And now... I think I'm going to have to go back to several of them, read more of what they offer, and add some of them to my blog list! Enjoy!
