cute on both ends

I’m sure most of you who read my blog know that I use cloth diapers.  Jonah was my guinea pig as I experimented with everything available.  I think that is the hardest part of cloth diapering– sifting through all the available options to figure out what works best.  Sometime toward Jonah’s toddlerhood I settled on Mother Ease One Size diapers with Air Flow covers as the all around best mix of cost effectiveness and functionality.  I also have a couple dozen extra small Sandy’s for those first few weeks when they’re so tiny with skinny legs and pointy bums.  Now, since I have a new sewing machine and serger I had the urge to sew some diapers.  I decided I needed some velcro all-in-ones (that have the waterproof layer built in so you don’t need a separate cover) for babysitters and helpful kids.  You don’t know how many times I’ve found diapers inside out, backwards, or without a cover after taking the sitter home– and Logan keeps asking me to teach him how to change wet diapers.  So here’s what I made:

I've been sewing diapers

It’s a size small Very Baby Basic All-In-One.  I’ve got supplies to make a dozen.  I’ve got 3 done.  Hopefully I can get them sewn so I can use them before he outgrows them! I’m hoping I can do one a day.  Or maybe half of one a day…

diaper modeling

I couldn’t resist taking a picture of those perfect tiny toes, but I have to say I think the other end is the cutest. So I leave you with some more pictures of the newest little boy in these parts.  Do you think he’ll mind if I say I think he’s pretty?  Well, I do.  I always think my babies are pretty.

  1. I think he is pretty. I could also say handsome and cute and adorable!

  4. Oh, what a cute litte face he has. I love the dark hair as well. I wonder how long he will hold onto it.

  7. Would you ever consider selling some diapers? New or used (unless you are saving them for future babies) I have a pretty nice stash of swaddlebees fitteds and thirsties covers, but would love some AIO’s. Let me know, I’m not due till June so there is no hurry.

  8. I love the color you chose for the diapers! hunter has such great eye contact!
