I'm a Fluffy Baby

Alright folks, it's official. Our family is joining the cloth diapering world.  After I officially decided in March to stay at home next year with Lexi, one of the first things I wanted to check off  on my domesticated goddess checklist was to start cloth diapering.  I have always been intrigued by the thought of cloth diapering, but was totally intimidated by the whole concept.  How do you hold the diapers on?  How often do you have to change and wash them?  What do you do with the dreaded poopy diapers?  I knew that working full time and having a child in daycare, meant that cloth diapering was not an option. 
Now that has all changed.  After much research, I am embracing this new semi-crunchy (because I have not gone totally granola yet) way of life.  I even went so far as to make my own cloth diaper laundry detergent and started using cloth wipes and homemade wipe solution.  So far the whole transition has been pretty much seamless.  Nick, though hesitant at first, has helped with many a cloth diaper changes so far and even changed a poopy diaper today (though he swore he never would).   Plus check out how CUTE cloth diapers are now.  We are sticking with mostly gender neutral covers and diapers that can be used with more than one child.  Great for the environment, budget friendly and an adorable accessory.  How can I turn that down!





 I can't wait to share more as we delve even further into the cloth diapering world!
