New Diapers and Swim Suit

I finally made it over to the cloth diaper lady today. It's taken me entirely too long to get over there, but now that I made it I'm so glad I did. She was wonderful to talk to and I ended up changing my mind on which diapers I wanted.

I ended up getting some of the Mommys Touch Easy Clean One Size Diapers that snap close. I was very intimidated about the one sized diapers before, but once I started looking at them more closely they didn't seem as bulky as I had imagined. They're a little more complicated and yes, a little bit bulkier, but I decided to give them a try.
We are hoping to have more children someday and for basically the same price as the new Fuzzi Buns, it seemed crazy to be buying so many sizes when I could buy just one and have it work for the entire diapering time. Also, the new style Fuzzi Buns apparently are sized just a little bit different because Amelia would still be wearing the smalls. The mediums were still a bit big in the legs and she would leak right out the side, and I really didn't want to buy a bunch of smalls and turn around in a month and buy mediums. So I had to make a decision!

I only bought three of these Mommy's Touch and I'm going to see how well they work. I like these Baby-Kanga's that she was telling me about too, so when they come in stock we're going to try one of those as well. Also on my entire purchase I had a coupon to use and I got a free wet cloth diaper bag. Woo hoo! =)

Some of you might be wondering what ever happened to the Hugga Buns. Well, I ended up getting them and they were leaking through the stitching. I have no idea what the problem was and Danielle (the owner) had never experienced this or heard of it happening with any others she sold. I ended up sending them all back and got a refund. I may be willing to try her new and improved diaper at a later date, but I didn't want to deal with anymore defective diapers, so that's why I'm no long using the Hugga Buns. It's too bad too because they fitted great and the price was fantastic, but you can't have leaking diapers. So, that's the deal with the Hugga Buns.

I also ended up getting Amelia a new swim suit. It's a fitted swim suit bottom (no more little swimmers) and a tankini top. I took these couple of pictures of her in it today when we tried it on. It fits great, I don't have to worry about those little swimmers because this holds everything in (and yes it holds pee - we had an experience during the pictures. Ha ha), plus it's well covered. I really don't like the swim suits that are so revealing for little girls - even for adults for that matter, but I don't want my little girl in something real revealing so this helps with that. Plus it covers a lot of skin so less sun exposure to the skin is good as well! I think it's too cute and looking forward to using it next week when we go swimming. =) *Click on the pictures to see larger*

Very cute suit. I am always so interested when you talk about the cloth diapers because I haven't the faintest idea what you are saying! LOL! Really, I am fascinated by it. I've never even SEEN a cloth diaper in person. Maybe if I have a number 5 I will have to try it.
