Something boring: disposable diapers for DS =p (see below)What is your favorite thing to spend money on? camera equipment and propsLeast favorite? disposable diapers for DS. Such a waste of money. We cloth diapered for a year but have developed a horrible detergent/ammonia buildup in his diapers and even though I've tried stripping them in tons of different ways, he can't wear them for even a few hours without breaking out in a horrible ammonia burn now. When we move into our new house I'm going to have a top-loading non-HE washer to try to resurrect them.
