Nurtured Family Open House

Since Jenny was not going to be in town for the Open House of Nurtured Family Boutique, she asked me if I could go to the classes they were teaching about diapering and baby wearing. I asked Ana to go with me and she was amazed of the things that are available through stores like this one. Any way we attended both classes on Jenny's behalf and we came home with three cloth diapers for Aurora. It was fun and there were lots of families. Ana, even talked to one of the ladies who works there and she end up being the buyer. So Ana offered Mila's Vintage Baby Bows and she was interested.
The owners Mark and Rebecca are pregnant with their fifth child.
They introduced a new sling to carry your baby called after their daughter Hava. You can see Rebecca teaching the class wearing a Hava Sling (http://www.nurturedfamily.com/detail.aspx?ID=699)
