The all in one cloth diaper resource.
You may think I’m crazy, but I love changing diapers. I love being able to choose a bright colored pocket diaper that matches my daughter’s dress. I love being able to put soft, cotton prefolds against her gentle skin. And when the weather is cold and my daughter’s skin needs the warmest protection, I love nothing more than using a warm pair of wool longies over a fitted diaper. Crazy, maybe, but to me, changing diapers is just about as cool as choosing an adorable outfit for … [Read more...]

I’m a pack-rat. I try not to be as I struggle against my clutter-bug nature to keep an immaculate and tidy house. I’m not a hoarder, by any means. I try not to acquire unnecessary things, but once acquired, they often become sentimental—especially my daughter’s things. Take her baby clothes, for instance. Being the first grandchild on the one side of the family and the first granddaughter on the other, she got lots and LOTS of clothes before she was even born. Weighing in … [Read more...]
This week we noted on our very active Facebook page (Have you "liked" us yet? Really, really liked us?) that bumGenius! is preparing to come out with new designs for their awesome diapers. It turns out that these offerings are going to be part of an "Artist's Series" to debut in a video on October 5th, with shipping expected in November. We have to admit, the idea of an artistic selection of diapers intrigues us, and all this week speculation here has kicked around possibilities of diapers … [Read more...]
Our very own blogger, Becca G, was kind enough to put the Bum Genius! 3.0 through its paces and send her review. If you've ready any of Becca's reviews, specifically, vacation diaries, you know that when it comes to cloth diapers, she's no pushover! I’m happy to say that bumGenius! 3.0 one-size diapers were my introduction into the cloth diapering world.
