'Tis the season!!

Well I hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday weekend!! Ours was busy busy busy! And the busy-ness still isn't over! Now that Christmas is over, I get to start on my new adventure of organization of all of Vincents things!  First though it's time for taking down the tree and decorations, and storing everything in the outside storage unit... Yuck, I so don't wanna go out in that mess, lol!  Then we need to get all the toys and such into their new homes, and get the boys (my sons Shane and Tylar) to finally get their room done... Then I get to FINALLY start on Vincents things!  Lets see here, all the cloths we have gotten are already washed and in their place, but make need to rearrange that because have some more coming in the mail.  Same with care items, have them in their place, but not sure if it's really where I want them, ya know?  Have bottles, spoons, some baby bowls and baskets coming from Babies R Us coming here in the next few days, so may wait on washing any bottles I have for him already.  (Yes I plan on breastfeeding, but seeing as how after about 3-4 months I tend to dry up, I wanted to be prepared) I will say this much, I love the idea of these take and toss things, if by some odd chance I loose any spoons or bowls, they aren't an arm and leg.  (Now if your wondering why I am getting his baby spoons and bowls BEFORE he's even born, it's this simple, They are even cheaper when they are on sale, and right now I was able to get them at buy one get one 50% off! Can't beat that when they are already so cheap!) I also want to organize my "diaper storage". I know I am not getting my whole stash till after baby is born, I think I may like to have it ready for when they come and I get them prepped. Any ideas? Leave a comment and let me know!  I will post before and after photos when I have it all finished!

My First!

Well, while I am planning on putting our order in for our diaper stash after the baby is born.  (that way we can make sure we order the right sizes) Until we get them (says it takes 2-4 days) and until his umbilical cord falls off and his Circ. heals he will be in sposies.  I got quite a bit at my baby shower so we will be using those up, and then not buying anymore.  Anyway, I was on this website called Listia.com (you bid on items using free credits instead of cash) and I won 2 FREE newborn sized AIO's (all in one)!! I so can not wait till they get here!  These will be my first cloth diapers EVER, and I am getting them for FREE! How great is that!

Welcome!

I would like to start by saying this is my own personal journey with cloth diapering.   I am a mom of 5 kids, and one on the way. My new child will be the one who is being cloth diapered.  I am also going through a journey of other cloth items. (such as peripads, nursing pads, ect.) I hope you will join me on this journey, offering and excepting ideas, tips, tricks and secrets!  Let's begin this journey with a little introduction, so please introduce yourself and tell me alittle about yourself, like how many kids you have, how many are in cloth diapers (if any) and how long you've been using cloth.  Hope to meet all of you soon!
