As we near the end of the summer, it occurs to me I haven't blogged a whole lot this month. It's not a big deal that I haven't, but a lot has happened.
We started to cloth diaper the baby. That's right you heard me cloth diaper. It's absolutely hands down the best way to diaper a baby. I've found it actually a TON easier then disposables. I'm sure everyone wondering how this is possible. Well for one, there isn't pee diapers in the diaper pail anymore. Yeah we have diaper pails for the cloth, but it's different and they are downstairs in the laundry room. The garbage doesn't stink like dirty diapers anymore. Poop gets flushed, the cloth gets rinsed and sprayed and tossed in the diaper pails in the laundry room. If we are out they get put in the wet bag till we get home. I wash every night and she only goes through about 6 diapers a day, 7 if you include her overnight one. I have to tell you I don't miss spending money on disposables, nor do I miss changing them. The biggest way I realized this was Kaylee's doctors appointment this last Friday. They have you take the diaper off to weight them, and then put it back on. Then when the doctor comes in he opens it up to check her stomach and hips and stuff. I didn't have to change her simply because the cheap ass disposable tabs wouldn't open and close that many times. It was awesome.
The kids went and spent some time with their father this month. They had fun, but now it's time to get back into going to bed early in preparation for school to start Wednesday. Fall is for sure on it's way. Days have been cooler, and some of the leaves in the back yard are turning the faintest of yellows and reds. It feels like year after year this happens sooner and sooner.
I go back to school September 12th. Shortly after that my loving hubby goes away for a few days on business. Let me tell you me starting school the kids being back in school and miss fussy pants, it should be a fun few days (NOT). We will manage though, we usually do.
I'm trying to think if there is anything else new that's gone on. I don't think there has been, so that's it for now.
