Well, most of you won't think it's terrifying...just normal. But for me it's AWFUL! So when M was sick a week or two ago she got put on an antibiotic and of course a couple of days later her butt was completely broken down and weeping- yes...this was to be expected. So I of course have had her in disposable paper diapers for the last almost 2 weeks. Well the other day I actually had the thought- gosh, I should just keep her in these- they fit under clothes better, no washing, no stinky pail sitting around, easier when we go somewhere because I don't have to change as much, so much easier. Except the trash smells AWFUL and I am not used to this. Plus, I can put cream on her butt whenever I want to. I had just purchased an amazingly expensive and beautiful night time solution and 4 fleece covers (which are nearly too small, dangit). So I knew this wasn't really an option...Then I thought- ARE YOU CRAZY!? What is wrong with you??? Of all the reasons we cloth diaper the biggest is because of the amazing amount of NONbiodegradable trash diapers create. I just can't do it! At least not full time. So last night, even though I didn't want to, I put her in cloth again. And of course, I felt really good about her squishy butt and knowing how much more comfy she must be with her bum able to breathe all night. Her butt looks great this morning and we're back in cloth full time. Here's one of the new fleece covers I bought. How on earth did I even consider not using it?!



Shortly after I took this pic she ran into the wall and lost it. She's sleeping now. Sucks to have to look and see where you're going. It's snowing pretty good here- M stood at the window and watched it for several minutes this morning. She's so funny. She's starting to eat better these days- still acting pretty picky and some days are better than others- but there's improvement I just know it!
I've gotten most of my Christmas shopping finished thank goodness. I think I have to wait until we get paid again to finish up!!! NO CREDIT! That's the goal. We still don't really know what to get M. She loves pretty much all toys, so it really doesn't matter. I can't believe it'll be Christmas in less than 3 weeks! AH!
Oh- here's a link to the baby furniture we bought in the black color (midnight). We got the dresser on the right with the hutch on the left and the crib. The dresser on the left was weird demensions...B is supposed to pick up the dresser tonight.

Hey, I know what you mean about the cloth. (I found your blog from DS.) Just wanted to let you know that Nature Baby Care diapers are completely biodegradable. We get them at Target, and they even sell biodegradable bags to dispose of them in. Still not as good as cloth, but awesome for going out and overnight, or when I have a special outfit to fit my daughter in.
Mira is just way to cute!!
Love Ya
