I'm a SAHM. Before I became a SAHM, I worked as a Decision Support Anaylst (computer consultant) for a database warehouse company and more specifically my last year there I supported a software package for a large entertainment rental client. I'm 27. My husband, who is also 27, is the distribution manager of a rent to rent furniture company.

Since I don't know what defines one as either wet bread or crunchy, I'll leave that out!

We go to the mall and get stared at for having 4 kids and nursing in public and changing cloth diapers and using a sling. A lot of people would freak here if they knew I was nursing a 2 yr old. But, compared to a lot of crunchy people I know, we're not that crunchy.

DH is an officer in the AirForce.

I am a SAHM/WAHM. I hold degrees in Chem/Bio/Business. I never used them since my other job was professional military wife.

We are semi-crunchy. Not out of reading a book but rather following our gut. I had no clue what AP was when I had DS#1

I'm a WAHM with a design degree and I finished school early, started my company in the middle of my schooling (did a few seasons with a few lines of Children's clothing selling them to stores all over the US). I was also a national Figure Skater until the day I got pregnant. Then I coached on ice until 12 weeks pregnant and then until my pre-term labor started at 25 weeks on the sidelines. I also started sewing at age 8, helping my grandma, who made my skating outfits.
My life has always been skating, sewing and now just sewing and Hunter

ETA: I'm a single mama and never knew what "AP" was until I had Hunter and that became my parenting style by nature, I just did what I felt was right for him and best for us as a family

ETA(again): I will be 23 in a few weeks, I use mama cloth, made (try to still) Hunter's food, buy organic when I can afford it, Hunter is in cloth diapers, lives in his sling (and loves it), self weaned at 16.5 months , co-slept for 18 months (again by his choice).. he's pretty independent!

Wow, not seeing much of a trend here are we?
I am a knitting wahm, but before dd I was a cad draftsman for a civil engineering/land surveying firm.
My hubby is a graphic artist for a local printing company and a dedicated dvd/book/autograph collecting night owl.
We are old too! I'm 42 (ouch!) and he is 47.
We are not crunchy but for people our age in our area I think we do all right. I know the toddler bf is pretty rare in these parts! Of course, we don't have enought money to be really effective gluttonous overconsumers. Maybe one day

I am a SAHM now, but pre-babies I was a elementary and middle school band director for 7 years. I still teach private lessons out of the house.

DH is an electrical/systems engineer. I really don't understand what he does.

I am 31 and DH will be 30 this year.
