Today I cancelled our Happy Nappy diaper service and I feel crappy about it! I really wanted to continue using cloth diapers as long as possible. Two reasons why I cancelled: 1) Most child care providers do not allow cloth diapers on children while they are in care and 2) It was costing us approximately $75 a month more than disposables. But what kills me is the cost to the environment of disposables!! Maybe I'll just have to force potty training on Blake earlier!? NOT! I thought about washing cloth diapers myself but that is not realistic for me! I already don't care for laundry so adding another 5 or so loads of laundry a week just wouldn't work! BUT, when we have another baby we will use the service again and if Blake's still in diapers at that time we'll switch him back too!! I guess we did good using cloth for almost 9 months!! (as you can tell I'm just trying to make myself feel better)! Anywho, on a more positive note Blake continues to be a rollin' machine! He gets himself around pretty good by rolling around the room! He has also started getting his bum up in the air when he's on all fours so that's a start to crawling! Today I started giving him solids at lunch time! He was seeming hungry the past few days around lunch so I figured it was time to start! Maybe he won't eat so much at supper time now? Who knows!! He has his 9 month pediatrician appointment on Feb. 5 so we'll see how much he's grown in the last couple of months! So that's about all that is new with us!! Hope everyone is well and keeping warm :)
Love Tracy
