...well that wasn't so bad!

we made it through our first full day of cloth diapering and it really wasn't bad at all! actually, i enjoyed it. cloth diapering (while good for the environment, and good for the wallet) actually gives me something fun to do when i'm changing kingston. i can pick out which colour, which brand, which style, which pattern, etc and it's actually a lot of fun!

i only have 7 diapers right now...i have several more coming in the mail so i will have to wash every day, but wow...who knew how easy this would be? the hanging diaper pail i bought has a zipper on the bottom so when i need to do wash, i just open the washer, unzip the bag...the diapers fall into the bag and i start the washing machine (bag goes in too) and presto...i have all clean diapers and i didn't need to even get my hands dirty!

kingston seemed to love them. they're a little more bulky, but the fabric on his skin is so much more plush and soft for his little heiny :) here's a picture of my sweet little man in his bum genius one size pocket diaper...
we're heading up to whistler this morning until tomorrow so we will be using disposables this trip...but i think next time we do a one-nighter i will attempt the clothies there too. i don't have a wet bag for my diaper bag yet, so once that comes we're set!
