Cloth Diapering

I have no idea why, but I have really wanted to start using cloth diapers. My only experience with cloth diapers was when I used to babysit for a family with 3 kids who used them and they grossed me out the front door. So why would I ever want to start using them? I think part of it is because it definitely is more cost effective, and with little Lois about to join us, diapering two kids is going to get expensive. But I think the main reason is because I am a sucker for cute fabric!

These are two wet bags I ordered off amazon using my swagbucks! So cute! I've started using some Bumgenius and Fuzzibunz pocket diapers that I ordered from Target, and I'm waiting to get some from sunbabydiapers.com. I'll keep you posted on how this new endeavor goes.

FULL TERM!!!

Yes! I am full term at 37 weeks! I went to the doctor on Friday and Lois' heartbeat was 143 bpm and I was 2 cm dilated and 70 percent effaced. The doctor said this is pretty normal especially for your second baby. That's all for the update, but here's some pictures of us enjoying this beautiful Kentucky weather!

36 weeks down, 4 more to go.

Four more? It still sounds so far away. I went to the doctor last Friday and had an ultrasound and I got to see our sweet little girl. She is almost 6 pounds! She was head down in the ultrasound, but I think she has flipped a few times since then. I can't wait for her to be here and get to experience life with a newborn again.

I finished her nursery and it turns out I like pink a whole lot more than I thought I did! I still have to wash some of her clothes, but other than that I'm as ready as I'll ever be.

Silas is almost 17 months old and he is doing great! He is so full of life, and he keeps me on my toes. It's funny how it works out to where the bigger and slower I get, the quicker he gets. I guess I have him to thank for keeping my weight gain down this pregnancy! Here's some pictures of our life lately...
