I second trying to strip them as well (I use the blue Dawn method).

Hannah,

Thanks for the pro tip! I will totally try the Rockin Green.

Hey Anne!

I am glad I am not the only one with leaky kid diapers. I think I’ll do exactly what you did when I try again in a month or so. Disposable’s at night and nap time and BG’s during the day.

I hope someone posts with the most awesome solution, that would be great!

Thanks for your input!

And while I have no advice for you about your BG problem, I can relate. Both my kids were crazy wetters when they slept and no cloth diaper could contain the mess, no matter what I tried. Moved to disposables for naps and nighttime and that solved it (actually, I had to double-bag my youngest kid for a long time because not even one of those huge nighttime disposables could handle his pee). So yeah, no solutions for you, but I’ll be checking back to see if anyone else chimes in with advice!

You can’t beat the price on that hamper, and it hold a ton. I hauled the entire families laundry in it the other day.

Hope you guys are all doing well. Emitt looks like the funnest kid in town, I hope we get to meet him someday.

Jessica – I don’t think it essential. Think about all these old houses. So many of them only have 2 or 3 bedrooms and people used to cram them full of kids. Although I have no personal experience in raising kids in the same bedroom, I’m sure it’s totally possible. Me and my brother grew up in the same room until I was 6.

Finn has already been talking about sharing a room with his brother. I think when Gus is a little bigger they might do that for a little while, until they get to that pesky age where they need their own space again.
