Cloth Diapers Here We Come!

Well here we go again! Starting cloth diapering with baby #2! We started cloth diapers the day before Goose's first 5K. My mom was completely against me starting it before such a big event but I couldn't help it! I was so excited to get started! I had plenty of diapers to keep going for another week with disposable ones but I just didn't want to wait! We didn't start right away because we didn't have enough cloth diapers to do it full time and I knew that I wouldn't be good at doing cloth only part time.

Thankfully a good friend of mine called me up and said that there were some cloth diapers at a garage sale. I'm pretty picky about used cloth diapers but I figured I'd stop and see if they were good. Well they were almost brand new bumGenius diapers! There were 6 of them which is exactly what I needed to start even though I would love to have a few more! I checked them all out, bought them for $5 (totally would have spent $15), brought them home and washed them all to get started!
Here they are all ready to be used! I'm thrilled to be using cloth again! To me it's completely worth it! It saves my family so much money and it doesn't take much time for me to care for them. Every other day I just throw them in the wash right after I get Monkey in bed and before I'm headed to bed myself they are ready to be dried. By morning they are ready to be put together and use again.

I'm super excited to be here again and I'm hoping it will go just as good if not better than it did with Monkey!
He's so adorable in his cute little blue diaper!


Here's a recap on just a little part of cloth diapering with baby #1

Baby Bumpdate: Week 35

35 Weeks! That means only 5 left!!!! Holy cow!!! I think I'm starting to freak out just a little!!! How far along? 35 Weeks! Yea! How big is baby?  He's about 18 inches and just over 5 pounds. Weight gain? I gained a pound last week. Maternity Clothes?  Of course. I'm living in tanks right now because of the heat. Just wish I had more shorts to wear. Stretch Marks?  Nothing new. Just the ones from before and Monkey. Sleep? With this cold I'm not sleeping much. I'm getting a little better and able to sleep about 4 to 6 hours at night and then at nap time I'm able to get 1 or 2 more hours of sleep. However, I'm still exhausted especially because of the heat. It just drains all my energy. Even when I'm sitting in the shade under a fan. Of course it's only June so I'm not sure how this heat thing will effect me in July :/ Best Moment this Week?  Monkey kissing my belly before he went down for a nap. It was so cute. He ...

Media Monday: How it affects my child

Media is neither good or bad. Last week I talked about media in our marriage and a little bit about our family and media but today is all about Rex and media. Rex loves cartoons! Right now he happens to be watching Veggie Tales while eating lunch. This is not a normal thing at all. I can't remember the last time he was eating while watching TV. Today we had a crazy time and he asked to watch a movie and I didn't have a problem with it. Plus it's Veggie Tales.  We have a limit (during mommy in charge time) that he is only allowed to watch one movie/TV show each day and some days we don't watch anything. When daddy gets home things change and the TV is on within minutes of being home. Rex normally doesn't care that the TV is on because of our daily activities. He plays or helps me cook unless daddy is watching adult cartoons then he is more interested.  This past winter I found us watching more TV than I planned ever to let my children watch. So once it start...

Bikini Body Mommy Challenge Update!

So we are starting week 8 (I think). It's been a few weeks since I have officially sat down and updated on how I have been doing. Week 6 I did pretty good. The 4 am workouts were starting to wear on me so I decided to try and get a workout in after my hubby left for work but before the kids got up. Some days that went OK and other days not so well. I did however get several workouts in with the boys awake and they went pretty well. Monkey tired to join in with me and it was quite fun to watch. Of course he couldn't keep up with the workouts and took many breaks but it was fun to have him involved. This week I plan to do cardio days at 4 am in the gym because they are easier than trying to complete in the house. But for the non-cardio days I will do them in the house in the morning. That way I'm not completely exhausted everyday. Now for week 7. I have no idea even what the workouts were for last week. I didn't even look once! I have good reason though. My hubby h...
