Coming soon....

July 29th, 2010

So, we made our first big baby purchase and they should be arriving sometime today. Cloth Diapers...YAY! Some people think we're nuts but I think it's going to be a great investment. Sure we have to spend a few hundred bucks right off the bat to get our diaper stash, but when you think of it, we're going to save so much money in the long run. The package coming today will be about half of our stash which I paid $200 for. I will probably end up spending another $200 for the next half....so around $400 total. Sounds like a lot right? But in reality, if we were to use disposables, we would be spending $60-80/month for the next few years of baby's life (hopefully we'll be potty-trained in 3 years haha). That's anywhere from $2,000-3,000 for just one baby. We can use these cloth diapers until baby doesn't need them anymore AND we can use them for our other children if we decide to have more. Sounds like a good deal to me! And of course you can't overlook the fact that we won't be contributing to the piling up of diapers in the landfill. That definitely gives a person that proud feeling of doing what's right! The other great thing about them is that they are super adorable too! A baby's gotta be lookin' good ;)

I can't wait to try them out....everyone I've talked to who cloth diapers loves it! And hopefully, the trend will catch on and more and more people will start cloth diapering. That would be fantastic. If you are interested in cloth diapering...check into it. Do some research and I think you will find that it really is the way to go.

I sure wish the Fed-ex dude would hurry up and get here!
