Baby's First Cloth Diaper!



Here are some pics of our sons first cloth diaper! Liam was kind enough to make me a replica of our son (by stuffing one of his outfits, and adding kitchen towels for legs) so that I could try it on him. Liam also helped by wiggling the legs while I proceded to change the baby. I hope real baby legs are more durable, because the towels kept falling off!
Isn't it so cute! This one is his swim diaper, because it is covered in a little ocean scene of sea turtles, searhorses, and fishies! Liam can't wait to take him swimming at the pool and start teaching him how to surf...Haha.
I can't wait to put it on the real baby! (Until he poops in it that is, my excitment my wane a little at that point). I could not have done this without the help and supplies of my friend Dawn who has helped me so much to get started in my cloth diapering adventure! Thanks so much!
I also had some other sewing fun yesterday. I patched a pair of stained maternity shorts that were attacked by black ink (devastating story, glad that this is the happy ending), shortened the sleeves on one maternity shirt, and took two in. I love altering clothes. It feels so great to buy something for a buck and make it look like 20 bucks!

  2. Cloth Diapers! Are you really going to only use cloth diapers? Good luck with that.
