Dakota lost another tooth

So this morning while Dakota was eating breakfast he came up to me crying saying it hurt to eat his tooth was bothering him so I looked and yep, his 2nd tooth was about to come out. So I cut up the rest of his breakfast so he could finish eating with out trouble. Well he said, "Mommy, please pull it out." I told him to do it himself, and to be a big boy. He tried, no luck. Josh then said let me try and it was out before we knew it. Dakota had no idea it was even out! :) So now my baby has a big gap where he is missing 2 teeth
here is a picture, sorry its kind of bad.

Waiting...

I, not realizing that they came from China, ordered a bunch of diapers off ebay. They were so cheap I couldn't believe it!! Well it takes a million years to get here. I've also heard that they sometimes have chemicals in them that the diapers made in the US don't. I hope not. So now its a waiting game. I'll deal with my diapers I got off craigslist, ripped off by craigslist I should say, while I wait.

In the mean time, I have entered a bunch of drawings to win diapers :)
Wish me GOOD LUCK!

Oh, Josh thinks I have a problem, and doesn't want me buying more diapers until I get these ones from China (7 lol)...
Poo on him!

3rd day of coth

So Today marks my 3rd day of cloth diapering.

I love it. I cant believe I waited 16 mths to try it out, shame on me. Better late then never right???

here is Addison from Day one in her first cloth. 

She loved it as you can tell

Ok so Anyways, I've learned so much

Where to start. How about there are a million different cloth diapers out there to try. I say I like pocket diapers now but who knows, day is only day 3.  I do have 2 AIO which are ok, but take longer to dry.

I hope to learn more and more and share it with you all. 

My new Fluff Adventure

So, recently, I've decided I am going to cloth diaper Addison.
So I plan to record on here how it goes what I like, what I dont like and so on.
Right now I bought a lot of cloths from a local momma here in Peoria Via Craigslist. I Cant say it was a good choice, I think she might have ripped me off, but that's life.
Right now I like the Pocket system diapers better then the AIO (all in one) diaper system but I have only tried a  few and am open to more.
For now that is all :)
