The world of cloth diapering

I have decided to delve into the world of cloth diapering. I have been thinking about it for a while now and decided to just bite the bullet and get started. I ordered some fuzzi bunz (12), a bum genius, two handmade ones from an etsy seller monkeysnuggles and two drybees fleece diapers. They are all pocket diapers that look just like and are put on just like a disposable. There is a microfleece insert that goes into the pocket along with other absorbant thing like hemp so you can adjust how much absorbancy you need. Obviously more for nighttime. I can't wait to get started this weekend. I am thrilled to no longer be contributing diapers that will be here for eternity to landfills and to save some money. I should recoop my spendings in about 4-6 months and will be able to use the diapers for subsequent children as well. I'll post some fluffy butt pics soon!

Maddie is finally feeling better thank goodness. We went up to Massachusetts this past weekend for Julie's shower and had a great time. Maddie was wonderful. She was great in the car and with everything we did all weekend. Here are some pictures of the past couple weeks.
