Cloth Diapers Archives

I want to be a more grateful person. I started this list of 1000 gifts a couple years ago but only made it to 176 and so I pick it up again…I hope to be much more successful in keeping up with it this time.

177. I’m grateful for a precious little boy to love.
178. Big sisters who are so anxious to hold our new baby.
179. Having a nearly 11 year old who is capable of helping with meals, holding the baby & helping her little sisters.
180. Picking up old friendships via Facebook.
181. Kind friends who are giving me a baby shower for my 6th baby!
182. Beautiful music coming from my daughter playing the piano.
183. My 6 year old who is such a big helper!

I can’t believe that August is almost over. This year has been such a roller coaster ride. It is time for me to settle in and prepare for the baby. He or she could arrive in just a couple more weeks.

Its funny but I am trying new things for baby number 6. I ordered cloth diapers! I almost switched over with Emma but then I chickened out because I was just too overwhelmed by the shear number of choices! I ended up ordering the sampler pack from nickisdiapers.com so I can see which ones work best for us. My package should arrive by the end of the week.

I also purchased a birth tub to use in this labor. I’ve always heard how great water is during birth but it has never worked out before. I bought this one from YourWaterBirth.com. I am really looking forward to using it this time around!
