Cloth Diapers Day 6

So we are on day six of our adventure back into the cloth diapers. We are actually doing pretty well. I went to two different diaper stores and was able to get a new wet bag that works great for at home when we are on the main level and for when we are out and in the diaper bag. It will hold about 10 to 15 diapers if need be. This is awesome because I use to have to carry two wet bags if we were out and about. 

I also got a new butt cream that is safe to use with cloth diapers and that is made locally which I love. I bought this for at night because his poor little butt was fire engine red when he woke up in the morning. We do use two diaper liners at night time but it still wasn't helping but this new cream is so I'm excited. That means no more disposals (until our cruise). 

We also got a swim diaper so that way we don't have to keep buying disposal for those as well. He will be using this a lot. With all the time we will spend at my parents house in the pool, the cruise and all the water that will be there, and plus Water World and other pools we will visit this summer. I'm excited to use it. Today will be the first day while we are at my nephews 8th birthday party.

We were also having problems with our wash cloths that we were using for wipes. They are the same ones we used before but now when we use them my monkey seems to be hurting. I bought 10 fleece cloths that are much better for his little tush. I also started using the washcloths my mom made for me too and they are much better.  

I'm excited to keep this adventure going and seeing the money that we are saving.

WEDDING! Part 2: The Day Of

**Warning more Picture overload!** I couldn't help it! WEDDING DAY! (August 6, 2005) On our wedding day I was so excited! I got ready at my parents house and J. and the guys got ready at our house. It was so much fun to get our hair done at a long time friends  hair salon .  After that we headed over to my parents house to start getting ready.    Everyone was busy getting me ready and many people were up my dress trying to get my 'fluff' to stay up so I didn't have to hold my dress us when walking.  My dad was kicked out of the house until I was done. I wanted him to get the whole sh-a-bang when he walked in. This was interesting. I had to climb into the truck but was not allowed to step on the tailgate and I couldn't see my feet. It was so funny! It looks like we were going fast but we really weren't but that's how we got to the park.  THE CEREMONY! After all that hard work to make it so I ...
