We left C with my parents overnight a few months ago when he wasn't sleeping well. Yeah, my mom got him to sleep for 6 hours, and then another 4 without any issues. Plus he napped for her.
While I was bumping 2 seconds ago, I could hear DD#2 playing in the laundry room (which is totally baby proofed). I assumed she was emptying out laundry baskets- a small price to pay in order to bump. Oh no, she went in wearing a diaper and nightie and came out wearing just her older sisters panties. Somehow managed to wrestle off her nightie and snap diaper, put them both in the hamper, and put on panties. I died laughing!
I think I'm going to attempt making flannel wipes this week. I had a pair of flannel pjs rip and figure that's the perfect opportunity to make some wipes. And if they suck, well, the fabric was being trashed anyway.
Oh, and rugby - I'm not far behind you. I'm making a big deal out of it too, I'm freaking out. I think we're going with either sweet potato or banana. Whichever we have handy.

I'm thinking about coloring my hair red. I got it cut the other day and it's way shorter than I wanted. Now I'm not loving it and I'm wondering if coloring it will make me love it again.

We have sweet potato too, but I'm worried I won't get the right texture. Like, it'll be too mushy and she won't be able to grab and chew on it.
@stoneycakes My hair was red for years of my life and I loved it. I frequently think about going back. So in other words, do it! And I'm with @TJ1979 I want to see before and after pics!

Hey, who was it who talked about blowing up their Rody through the... blow-up hole... which is, um, below the tail? My memory is @stringy813
Can I get away with buying only one of these? Or is this going to be the toy one of my children gets assassinated for? Because C and E already fight about who gets to sit in my lap whenever I sit on the floor.
So we took our first overnight trip with both boys. DH has started wrestling season, which means I'm on my own from 6:30am-8/9pm every day. I'm already exhausted.
I did put some pork in the crock pot, and just poured some apple butter over it. Here's to hoping it's easy and tasty.
Guys I sat behind a couple who had never been to our church before today. I spoke with them briefly, and noticed that their son who is maybe 9 or 10 months old definitely had a cloth diapered butt. It wasn't sticking out of his pants or anything though, so I didn't know how to bring it up without being totally awkward. I think if she comes back next week I'm going to say, "hey I can see your kid has a fluffy butt. We should become BFFs"
what do you think? It doesn't come off too needy does it?
So I was packing the diaper bag for church this morning and I had some serious internal discussions over what diapers to pack in the bag. In the event that we are sitting near each other again and my bag is open, what kind of cloth diapering parent did I want to appear to be? The latest AIO prints lady? The sensible flats/covers lady? The crazy little-of-everything-in-my-bag lady? It was a real struggle.
OMG I go through this every time we have company or M is going to see someone new. And then they don't care...
My criteria for packing diapers for the hospital is about 40% 'What's likely to fit under her stump?' and 60% 'What's going to make all the nurses oo and ah over how adorable they are?'
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste,
It all revolves around you.
Well, she was there. We even talked briefly again at the end of the service and she was holding a yellow edged prefold in her hand while we talked! Yet I still couldn't come up with a conversation starter better than, "is that a prefold in your hand?" so I said nothing about cloth.
Maybe she lurks here...hey girl who came to my church and made small talk with an awkward and tired looking mother of 4, you know who you are. It was nice to see you again. We should be friends and talk about cloth diapers.
How about, "oh, I like GMD prefolds too, have you tried their bamboo?" Says the person who had an awkward conversation with a cd dad from daycare about the fact that CDing is easy... Then we talked about accounting.
Dang. That would have been good. had I seen a cover or pocket of some sort I would have totally gone the "oh, is that the new blueberry print?" Route but I didn't know how to make a conversation about prefolds. Plus it seems weird to be all, "hey, you cloth diaper? Yeah, me too". Where does the conversation really go from there? I'm so awkward
According to this board, that conversation then heads towards sex towels, checking out chicks buttholes, decorating for Christmas, what other environmentally friendly things you do, lots of amazing foods, asking if someone ever gets hair caught in their buttcrack during a shower, conversations about TTC, social security numbers... The possibilities are endless!

What if she noticed that you CD too, and is just having the same thought process in her head? Aren't all CD moms just so excited to see another one? Or is that just the ones on this board?
