35 Weeks Preggo and counting!

YES! I have only five weeks left to go! Whoo Hoo! At this point I am entering into the "I am done" stage. As you know, I LOVE to cloth diaper Greyson and am so looking forward to CD'ing our new little one. I have finally taken pictures of our newborn stash that I have been working on for a couple of months. It is complete minus two dipes I still have on the way. I will post pics of those when they arrive :) Ok so here it is....

This will most likely be baby's Happy Birthday coming home outfit. I am still experimenting on the different hats and shirts but this is what I have so far. The hats are Gerber and the t-shirt is Carters. The Longies are homemade by a very sweet mama I meet online. She hand knit them with wool yarn that I chose :) So, the longies act as a diaper cover and I do not need a cover besides the wool pants. Wool is my favorite! LOVE these!

Just a pic of the Longies.

2 XS Mother Ease Sandies & 3 XS Bum Genius All In One's

3 Newborn Muttaqin's

24 Newborn Prefolds & 24 Infant Prefolds (these are my "Go To" dipes)

8 Kissaluv's Newborn (I will be using these at night time with a cover over them)

Various pul covers and wool covers ( I actually have more but I am thinking these might be enough)

This is my changing station that my hubby set up for me in my laundry room. This makes to SUPER easy to wash and put away :) This is Greyson's whole stash 1/2 of new babes stash.

This is the baby's changing table in our room for night time changing. Half of the babe's dipes will be kept in here and half in the laundry room.







I absolutely "heart" my newborn stash and can NOT wait to use it! I also have organized babes clothes and Greysons clothes. They will be sharing a closet and dresser until Greyson is old enough to move into a regular bed in the spare room, which will then be his room but that will not be for awhile yet. He is still very comfy in his crib :)

Cloth Diapers

I have been inspired! Ha! So, I have been carefully researching and pondering whether or not to start using cloth diapers. We have used disposables up until now and now I feel like I have enough time and energy to use cloth. Cloth diapers have really changed sense our mothers used them. It takes quite a bit of research to find what the differences are and what would suite each person. I have decided to try a couple of different types. First, I ordered some basic pre-fold diapers ( kind of like the ones our moms used to use). These pre-folds require a cover over them and they run anywhere from $3.00-up. The plastic cheapos can be found at Walmart or Target and there are even pretty cotton, hemp, bamboo, wool, covers that are more spendy and come in an array of colors and patterns online. So, I am trying the prefolds with cheapo covers for right now (just in case we don't like em). I also ordered what is called a pocket diaper. They run anywhere from around $10-up and also come in different kinds of material, colors, and patterns. The pocket diaper has a pocket in between the outer liner and the inner liner that hold an absorbent "insert" and there is no folding reqired. You just take out the insert and wash. They are fastened together with Velcro or snaps and make it very easy for babysitters or dads :) to use. I was able to find a 3 pack of Fuzzi Bunz on Ebay of around $12 a piece w/inserts (they are normally around $17.25 or so). There a many more kinds of cloth diapers but for the moment, until we find what we like, we are going to just start with these. I'll let you know how they turn out.
