   It’s a good thing she has the money to “go green” in every aspect. Not many people have that kind of money. It’s unfortunate that it costs more money to “go green.” By the way, I’m kind of sick of that phrase. To me, it’s sounds more like companies are “going green”, as in making more money!!

   before every woman on this board starts bashing kellie for her healthy lifestyle choices, I wanted to say that kellie’s younger sister Heather died from Lupus when she was about 19 years old. Studies have shown that leading healthy, organic lifestyles can help prevent or at least maintain the disease. i think that is one of the biggest reasons why kellie chooses to feed her own daughter foods that are not processed. You can find out more info about Lupus and environmental factors here: http://www.recoverymedicine.com/lupus_wellness_tips.htm

   I wonder if Kellie is turning her whole home green or just Maggie’s things? Maybe she should talk to Peter Reckell (Days of Our Lives) who built a “green house.” He lives in a solar-powered home that generates enough juice to sell power back to the utility company. Not only does he make the energy, he keeps his home efficient with insulation made of recycled denim and no carpets.

   I think its great, however my personal hope is that someday the average mom can afford to surround her children with all natural products. I substitute where I can, but its just not possible for us to do it completely!

   I think it’s awesome that Kellie is moving towards a healthier and organic lifestyle. We strive for the same in our home, and we certainly are not wealthy by any means. We just cut back in other areas. I hope that more celebs talk up the advantages of living a natural, organic life.

   Going green does not always mean you have to spend more money. Yes, the Weleda and Avalon products are expensive, but if you just start cleaning your house with baking soda and vinegar instead of 409 or Windex, you are one step closer to a chemical free home for your children. There are loads of information online about going green in your cleaning and/or household products.

   So why no mention of using cloth diapers? Disposable diapers are one major source of waste in our country. We have poop and urine soaked plastic rotting in our dumps and it will still be there 500 years from now. Not to mention it’s hardly free of chemicals (maybe not toxic, but who knows?)

   I cloth diaper my 2 youngest children and it’s not that hard. It can be a dirty job, and yes, you have to deal with poop a little more than with disposables, but the effect on Mother Earth and our babies skin is worth it.

   I love celebrities who are “going green”. It actually inspires alot of other people to do the same thing. I recently decided to change the way I live with “greener choices”. I just had a baby daughter, and I started buying her eco-friendly baby clothes from Sweetie Pie Baby Boutique. Although some go green choices are a little bit more pricier, they are definitely better quality. Definitely worth the extra buck in my opinion!

    I just hosted an EcoFriendly Baby Shower for my friend and i ordered a centerpiece from http://www.GrowInStyle.com. The 100% organic ecofriendly diaper cake was the hit of the party! It was the most unique and creative gifts the mom to be has ever recieved, and it looked beautiful as a decoration! It contained a bunch of useful things the mom will get to use on her baby, including a blanket, recieveing blanket, onesies, burp cloths, dipaer cream , 2 natural teethers, sophie the giraffe and chan pie gnon teether as well as the all natural Natursutten pacifier- the coolest pacifier ever! the cake was very cheap and of the best quality that i came across.. the mom absolutely loved it! I highly recommend it to anyone considering an ecofriendly baby shower gift.
