Now for my review.
I used these diaper on my daughter from 15 months plus. Since I had just started cloth diapering. These would work great on younger babies. I love the different fabric patterns that I was able to get from Sunbaby diapers, also it was a great starter package for me since for 24 diapers I only paid $108.00.

I love the design of the diaper. With the back flap and the hip snaps. I have a chunky legged baby so she did get red marks on her legs even if I didn't use the hip snaps. She also has a small waist so using the last hip snap was impossible to do because then the diaper would bunch and become uncomfortable for her.. My daughter is 18 months and about 23 lbs and she is on the last rise adjustment and no hip snaps, but she fits the waist.

We have had no leaks with the Sunbaby diaper even at night, I double stuff at night. She wakes up atleast once needing a diaper change but she is a heavy wetter at night and gets uncomfortable. She even did that with disposable diapers. The hip snaps are great in preventing drooping on the sides. The lining is very soft. You do have to wash them quite a bit when you first get them since there is a bit of odor from being packaged for so long.

It took about three weeks to get my order in. They come from China so that is too be expected and my word of advice don't call USPS when they get stuck in customs since they will just try to make it seem like you got scammed because you are dealing with China. The USPS was the only problem I had with the whole order and shipping process. I also had ordered before Christmas so that also made my shipping time take longer than what I have heard from others that had ordered Sunbaby diapers.

Sorry my pictures aren't the greatest.

Sunbaby Diapers mainly

Okay so I know its been awhile since I wrote on here. I finally received my Sunbaby Diapers. I love them so far, only thing that is frustrating me so far is no matter what I do I leave little red marks on Jasmine's legs from the elastic. The hips snaps are great but I have tried to loosen it as much as possible but it really hasn't helped. Jasmine also broke out in a rash on the second day so I rewashed them thinking I didn't do enough rinses. Which adding another rinse as solved the problem she also didn't like the whole cloth wipe and a spray bottle to well. So I am still using regular wipes but I am thinking of switching to those flushable ones so I don't have to make sure I remove the wipes when she does a number 2 and I dump stinkies in to the toilet. So I did end up using sposies while I rewashed and rinsed all the cloth diapers but once they were all washed I ended up just using one of the wipes as a barrier between the diaper rash cream and her diaper. Since she kept pointing at the cloth diapers and saying "this" and also running off with them, while I was stuffing the liners into them. Connor and Jasmine ended up turning it into a game, she would grab a arm full of liners (I had the liners separated from the diapers) and run off with them, then I would say thief and Connor would run after her to get them back. They were just giggling up a storm and Jasmine thought it was so hilarious.

Jasmine will not let me put a sposie on her now, she runs straight to her drawer with her cloth diapers and starts point and saying "this". So I have been letting her pick which one she wants to wear. Now I just have to get her to understand that I have been stuffing the solid color diapers for nighttime diapers. So I ended up with four that can't be stuffed. Above is a picture of 24 out of 25 cloth diapers that I have. My favorite prints are the skulls and the pink stars both are the black Sunbaby diapers and the one Ooga Booga one from Little Pigeon Diaper Company.

During the day I have used both brands and they are both really nice diapers. I have had no leaks so far with both brands during the day. Both brands start to get squishy and feel a little cold when you ouch the cover at about 3-4 hours, but no leakage so far. Now I will say I do change them every two - three hours but I wanted to see how it would do during the day with only one liner in it.

Now for nighttime I have only used the Sunbaby diaper so far since I honestly don't think I can fit to liners into the Little Pigeon Diaper Company diaper. I use two liners in the Sunbaby diaper. Jasmine goes to bed about 7:30pm and usually she wakes up about once in the middle of the night which is any where from midnight till about 4:30am wanting a new sippy. So far no leaks. Even the one last night where she slept from about 7:30pm till about 4:30am no leaks but it sure was full.

So honestly in my opinion for the price of the Sunbaby diapers and quality of the cloth diaper I do think they are a steal. Just don't order around a holiday like I did. My Sunbaby diapers were shipped out same day as I paid and only took a day to get to the US from China but since it was a holiday they sat forever in New York. I paid on the 22 of December I received them on the 8th of January which honestly isn't bad. But when you have the USPS who it got transferred to when it hit the US tell you they don't know what is going on and they have no info on your package and for you to contact the sender to start a investigation it on it because it just has to have the wrong address on it (that is what the lady at USPS tracking phone number told me as soon as I answered China for her question of what country is was coming from.) I could go into a lot of negative remarks on the USPS tracking but I won't.

been busy

Okay so it has been pretty busy around here since I last blogged. My dad has ended up in the hospital twice. The first time for a stroke and they told him he has emphysema. Then he went in again for chest pains and they told him one of the valves in his heart isn't working right and that he has diabetes. They will be doing some stress test on him tomorrow. I have been on the phone with my mom so much yesterday and today that I barely have time for the kids, but we did bake today. I have noticed that when life gets crazy for me I bake something.

Jasmine has just been keeping me on my toes by climbing on everything if I turn my back on her for 5 seconds. So that has been keeping me pretty busy too. She is getting to be such a handful and I can't wait to see how Matt takes her being into everything when he come homes for 2 weeks. Jasmine's eczema has also been acting up he poor little ankles no matter how much lotion on put on them, keeps itching apparently. Since when I got her up this morning one of her ankles was just glistening like how a scrape would when its not bad enough to bleed. Which when I had to run to Walmart to get milk and eggs I put socks on her since its cold outside and by time we got home there was a tiny bit of blood on the sock. So I have been putting neosporin on her ankles to try to get them to heal enough so I can put lotion on her. Poor thing its just her ankles that get really dry and itchy.

I also tried out the Yiddle Dapper diaper that I won and I loved it. Jasmine also did too, she was pretty upset when it had to be takin off for her bath after lunch. Its the first cloth diaper she has tried on, she has worn cloth training pants not too long ago when she had a really bad rash. Which because of the rash I am converting to cloth diapers plus also the cute fabrics was just too much to resist. I am really wishing I started cloth diapering 6 years when I had my son. Side note I am still waiting for my Sunbaby order hopefully it comes in sometime this week. Apparently it sat in Customs for about 8 days due to Christmas and then with also New Years that also puts a delay on me getting them. I can't wait to try them out on Jasmine. I am also hoping to get them soon so I don't have to go buy some sposies, which I should have enough sposies to last a week or two. So I guess you can say I am praying to get that order in soon. Next I just have to figure out how to tell hubby I switch to cloth diapers and hopefully talk him into getting a diaper sprayer and some wetbags when he is home. Right now I have a laundry bag in a small
trash can which it is cloth and it is twice the size of the trash
can I bought. But hey so far it is working.

We also made brownies from scratch today and they were really good. Jasmine helped me since Connor didn't want to, but he did show up in time to lick the beaters. Of course he did right since brownie batter is just awesome. Here is some pictures and the recipe we did. I got it off of www.food.com this link should take you straight to recipe and all the reviews.

wanna just crawl back in bed

Well this morning I woke to Jasmine in my bed at about 4 am, So I had to get her a new sippy and then shut her in her room to go back to sleep. Its either shut her door or have her come back in my room and play whack mommy in the head till I finally just say forget going back to sleep and just crawl out of bed. So we both go back to sleep, about 6:30 am she is at her door banging on it. I give up and just open her door and then crawl back into bed. Well no surprise when not even 2 seconds after I crawl into bed I hear her pushing her brothers shopping cart down the hall to my room and she starts pretending she stirring something in one of her play kitchens pot. Thankfully she didn't think to hit me in the head with the pot. She instead decided that she would just crawl on me and kick me in the head. So finally after thirty minutes of being climbed on, hit in the head too many times to count I finally crawl out of bed at 7am. No I am not a morning person, I would rather just lie in bed and take being hit in the head than get out of bed for the day. She does just sit with me on the bed here and there which that's cute cause sometimes she pretends to snore or gives me baby kisses.

Connor finally wakes up at about 8, which I can't believe he is finally learning to sleep in only wish he learned it sooner. Made pancakes for us this morning and of course halfway through Jasmine decides Hooch our dog would like some of her pancakes. Hooch has gotten so fat since she learned to throw food on the floor for him. Everytime she throws food on the floor I just have to tell her just wait till your daddy gets home. Since when we talk on webcam, he sits there and yells at her to put stuff down and to behave. Its so funny that he thinks she will listen. But I think she has gotten so used to hearing and seeing him on webcam that she thinks if she climbs on to the computer chair and pokes the screen where daddy's picture is she can talk to him. I have our family picture that was taken before he left on the computer screen. Despite how many times I tell her to get down just just does it anyway. She is so hard headed just like her daddy. So here we are after breakfast Connor is on the couch playing with his nerf gun and Jasmine is running around kicking a little basketball and going head first into the basket of the stroller.

So I already checked on the Sunbaby diapers I ordered they are still sitting in Inwood, NY on USPS since the 22nd. I can't wait to finally get them. I am hoping they come in some time this week, since USPS doesnt always update the tracking as much as the other shipping companies. Already made room for Jasmine's cloth diapers in her drawers, also finally took down the crib this past weekend since she has been sleeping in her toddler bed despite the early morning wake ups she does. Which those are normal she has always done a early wake up but she usually goes back to sleep as soon as she gets something to drink.

Also took down the inside Christmas decorations since it just doesn't feel like Christmas without Matt here or without our family being around us. I still have to take down the outside Christmas lights but I will leave those up till after my anniversary and New Years Eve. Still can't believe this Friday it will be 7 years that me and Matt have been married. Look at pictures from 7 years ago and now wow we have changed some.

Cloth diapers/cable

Well I ordered some Sunbaby cloth diapers yesterday. I am so excited to try them. I ended up ordering 12 through Sunbaby diapers and another 12 through their ebay store since I could get two different designs I really wanted. Which I was able to get two of the Star Pink and and hopefully another two of the Black skull we will see when it gets here. Since she said they had limited stock of those two designs. Which is why they took them off their actually web store. so all together I have 24 cloth diapers and 24 liners coming in and its about 22 actual different designs on the outside only two are suppose to be double since I liked those so much. Great thing is I still only paided about $126.00 yeah I could have just got them all through her actual store for only $108 but I was just too impatient to wait for a response back. If I love these cloth diapers, then it was worth making two different orders and paying alittle more. Also they just went ahead and put it all in one box. So I don't have to keep track of two boxes, which is great. Ya it was cheaper for them to do that since they pay shipping but who cares.

I really wanted to try some of the others like BumGenius, Flip, and a few others but they cost so much for me to buy them just to start out cloth diapering. I will order one here and there so I can try them, but I really like how the inside or the Sunbaby is designed. I did win a free diaper but I haven't tried it yet since I don't want to just have to wash one diaper all by its self. I am also hoping that my dryer does fine since it has only temperatures like High, Medium and none for fluffing. The old housing here does have clothes lines though so I can always use that if need be. Which I think I will use it and then throw in dryer for a minute or two.

Okay so I go to change my daughters diaper and I notice Disney is in Spanish so I check the TV language and its on English. So I check my sons room and his is in Spanish. Okay so they came out and without doing anything they told be that it is a problem on there end since they are going to be adding five channels to basic cable. The cable guy has seen the same thing on his TV's, and he said they actually had a meeting about it that morning. Now why did they try to make it seem like it was all my fault on the phone when I had called. Now that would be the question, right?
