What do you see in this picture?




What do you see in this picture?  Do you see art or do you see all the new color of snappi's?  I see art within the snappi's!

We call this Snappi art! This picture is made by Cesar. He got into his mama's store inventory and made this wonderful picture!  I like how he laid all the colors out and made such a great picture.  As adults we get to busy to see the beauty of what is going on around us.  This time, the beauty was as simple as baby diaper closures being laid out, and photographed by his mom.

Thank You Cesar for giving me a great picture to blog about!

Lulu's In The Fluff

Have you ever heard of Lulu's In The Fluff Glamour Wash?  If you would have asked me what it was about 4 months ago, I couldn't have told you what it was either. After doing my research and watching retailers discussing about this stuff called Lulu's In The Fluff Glamour Wash I decided to bring it into the store, and give it a try!

All I can say is was WOW, after the first try.  I mean WOW....  I have a 3 year old that will be 4 in April, that is still wearing diapers at night.  He is totally day trained, nights are just our problem.  My first order of Lulu's In The Fluff arrived her at my house and I had been waiting with stinky diapers!  I ripped the box open and ran to the washing machine.  Yes, I mean I went straight to the washer!  The diapers in the bucket were pretty strong!

So we tossed in the diapers, did our cold rinse first, and then during the wash I added my 1 tablespoon of Lulu's In The Fluff Extra Glamour Wash Hard Water detergent and let them wash.  Finally when the washing machine stopped I went to the washer, opened it and took one big old sniff.  I wanted to see if the diapers smelled clean. BOY, it was a smell I wasn't use too, my whole washer smelled clean, I promptly put them in the dryer.  I have to say, when they came out of the dryer before they had a "funk" smell to them, but this time they didn't.  THEY JUST SMELLED CLEAN!

What has me totally sold on this product? The next morning when my son came to crawl in bed with my husband and I!  There was NO ammonia smell.  I couldn't believe it.  It's been many months of that strong ammonia smell no matter what I did to the diapers! NO MORE AMMONIA SMELL.. I was amazed, and in love all at the same time!  Is it possible to love a cloth diaper laundry detergent?

So now that I have sang the praises of our first and second uses, let me tell you a little about

Lulu's In The Fluff


Lulu's In The Fluff Glamour Wash was released to the cloth diapering community in the Spring of 2009. www.fluffenvy.com was the first cloth diaper store to carry the new brand. Lulu's was formulated because Lulu's son has extremely sensitive skin and every detergent broke him out.  Lulu had many friends request that she make Lulu's for them, and that is when she decided to brand their laundry soap. 

From Lulu: "It (Lulu's In The Fluff")  is a very gentle yet effective cleaner and has proved to be what I intended it to be. We still have received zero rash complaints and that makes me smile" 

Adam and Lillian Cannon have just recently purchased Lulu's In The Fluff.

I also have to say that Lulu's In The Fluff has made me smile as well!  We will be selling Lulu's In The Fluff Glamour Wash on both of our websites.  www.forthemonster.com and www.lilbunz.com

We think that you should give this cloth diaper laundry soap a try!  If you are fighting the stinkies, what could it hurt?  You might just be as amazed as I am with this product!!   Lulu's comes in:


Lulu's In The Fluff Glamour Wash -13.95 - This is for soft to hard water
Lulu's In The Fluff Extra Glamour Wash - 14.95 - This is for extra hard water
Samples - 3.00/3.50  

The bags will be 45/90 loads
Samples will do 3 - 5 loads

Lulu's In The Fluff suggest that you rinse your diapers before placing them in the diaper bucket, BUT I want to say, that I didn't/don't rinse my son's diapers first, and I was totally impressed on how clean and clean smelling they came out of the dryer.

Spring Fever 2012

Its that time a year again. SPRING!! ( OK, ALMOST SPRING) Even though winter has felt like spring, so far this winter here in Northwest Arkansas. It was 62 degrees today (Sunday March 4, 2012) We have been working on getting the garden ready. This is the first garden we have had since 2008. We all are looking forward to feeling a little dirt between our toes this spring and summer!

The boys talked Eric into planting a few things in the garden today. Today we planted: Radish, White Onions, Red Onions, Carrots, and Beets today. I'm hoping they will make it, since they were planted so early. We will see, the boys did have fun helping me till and then planting the garden.

They were not happy with me when I told them they had to wait until May to plant the tomatos, squash, zucchini, green beans, and what ever I can get put in there! It will be fun watch the garden growth through the kids eyes.

I'm wanting to show our children that we can grow our on food, and how good it will taste all winter long! Hopefully this will lower our grocery bill some.

I like to plant flowers and LOTS of flowers! It will be fun this year, since I will have a brand new yard to landscape this year. So, if you have any flowers that you will be seperating this year, you can ALWAYS mail me a start off of whatever your going to throw away!!

Swaddlebees Capri Diaper Covers

 





I didn't think it was possible for a diaper cover, make me want to have another baby!  BUT THIS ONE DOES!!!!  If you are a fan of the Weehuggers diaper cover, then you will totally be in love with Swaddlebees newest diaper cover, the CAPRI.

The Capri diaper cover is built like your old favorite, with a few customer change requests!


1. All covers are made of 100% polyester laminate.
2. The Stay Put flaps are also made of the same laminate material as the outer fabric.
3. Inserts are made with 100% cotton birdseye with an optional microfleece layer, similar concept to our One Size Simplex diapers INSERTS ARE SOLD SEPARATELY.


They come in:
Size 1 - 6 - 16 lb or  3 - 7 kg
Size 2 - 12 - 35 lb or 5 - 16 kg

I totally like the fact that you will only have to purchase 2 covers to fit baby from possibly birth to potty training!  These covers are built tough!

 I don't know, but I like all the colors and prints that are offered so maybe it is a good thing that I do not have a baby, because I would be going back to using these covers in a heart beat!


You can never have to many cloth diaper covers or cloth diapers right?  Once again Swaddlebees has come up with another MUST HAVE diaper cover!!!

Merry Christmas

As I set here and wonder where 2011 went, and how Christmas is only a few days away I find myself missing family.  My Mom, that I lost in 2008; my In-Laws, Aunt Jo and Uncle Walter.  Luckliy my sister is only 2-1/2 hours away from me, but Eric's brothers and sisters are DAYS away.

Not that we won't have a nice Christmas here with our kids, because we will. I just hope everyone will take the time to enjoy all the distant relatives you will get to see over the holiday season.  Most of all remember the Reason for the SEASON!  The birth of Jesus.

Try not to get bogged down with getting the perfect gift or a gift at all for that special person. Gifts are just STUFF and love is forever.

Merry Christmas, be safe in your traveling.
From your cloth diapering friends FOR THE MONSTER....
