Tuesday-February 27th-Cloth Diapers

Tuesday was also uneventful with work. Last week I got our disposable diapers, (my cousin totally hooked me up, thanks Jessica!) and have been using them for about a week and love them! KG had the first and only messy one so far(the other's have made it into the toilet or into a disposable because we didn't have enough inserts yet) and he's not sure what he thinks yet but it will save us a lot of money and I just feel better about something I can reuse. Not to mention it's a heck of a lot better on our baby's bum. Flower's rash was almost healed with the cream we had been using but a bit of redness was lingering. The day after we started using the cloth diapers, the rash was gone, without using anymore cream, and has not re-appeared. I got some more inserts and they need to be washed 4 or 5 times before use and we were out of quarters. Flower and I walked to the bank and then came back and spent the next couple of hours walking to the basement every 25 minutes to start the load again. We also went to the Co-Op to get some laundry detergent so we stopped by Jim's first to see Joni. She gave Flower some mashed potatoes for lunch. She loves Flower and says she can't wait to start spoiling her first Grandchild. What fun! At the Co-Op they have mini shopping carts(but not toy ones) that kids can push. She had a ball pushing our detergent around and was not happy to have to put it away! It was a hard day for Flower. She didn't sleep well the night before, only slept a half hour even though she laid down for almost 2 hours for her nap, and went to bed at 7:45 because she was acting so tired but didn't fall asleep till after 10:30! Then she woke up at 1:00 am, then 2:30 am.
