How Cool is That!

I so did not realize people actually read this! How cool and thank you very much. Now hmmm what do I have to say today....Ok! first off I want to let you know that in a way I guess I got a little more info out there about my diapers in the cloth diaper world. I have traded with a few mamas on baby center to show my product and let people check them out. I was in need of bigger diaper covers for my lil one so traded some of my Little Monkey Britches. Traded for a few other items as well. I really hope these mamas enjoy LMB and tell other people about them. I just got into making a new style of diaper (new to me at least). My other half calls it a pocket diaper. I came up with it as a even daddy can use prefolds kinda thing..............HaHaHa.....oooohhhh I gotta tell you why I came up with this new style. Warning to you now ......I will probally jump back and forth telling this so hope I don't confuse you to much. Ok here goes.......My lovely little chunky baby had a growth spurt,therefore I am currently in the process of sewing her a new stash of my one size fits most dipes. So it seems she was peeing like crazy that day and it ended up I put her in a prefold. I did the tri fold lay in the cover method.......I never do this EVER...Who knows what prompted me to do it this time. So me and daddy have been in a heated debate over his lack of participation and he decided that since ignoring me didn't work he would pitch in so I would shut up. Smart daddy! So up until this day the man had never changed a cloth dipe and replaced with cloth. The two times he changed her he would take cloth off and replace with a sposie. So this day he decided to help out, he was doing alright a little confused on getting the snaps the same setting on both side.But at least he was trying . And that was enough for me. So anyhow he changed oh I guess about 3 diapers, feelin pretty cocky with himself. He didn't see that I had used a prefold. She was fussy and he picked her up to comfort her. Somehow her cover had came un done and the aplix was scratching her tummy. So daddy picks her up......cover is dangeling from her foot.....soggy prefold lands on his feet as it hits the floor......daddy is holding her out at arms length like she had just grew a second head.....I guess he panicked and runs to the sposies to put one on her. He looked at me after his crazy little episode and says......"I dont know those".....to which I of course bust out laughing. So my new creation was made just for daddy so now he knows those. I dont have pictures yet but lets see if I can give you a visual.........think of having a fitted diaper in front of you with no absorbant layers in the middle. Now think of what it would look like if it had a maxi pad layed in it to absorb.....ok no I am not crazy.....I think....I didnt use maxi pads in my dipe. I cut out the shape of a maxi pad from the liner layer of the dipe.So basically I have a empty dipe with an oval shaped hole down the middle inside. This holds a prefold great!!! and its even daddy proof. Daddy was tickled.....now he knows those. He has asked me to make more for him to use. These for the most part I will make as a hybrid.....fitted/soaker/prefold. This has some really great qualities I enjoy. Such as the ease of a fitted.....without having to use a cover......and faster drying time since the prefold can be removed to move around freely in the dryer.
