Um, ok so I was busy.

Promises promises. I said I would make a list of goals here yesterday, and did I? Nope. Shame on me. I can even keep a promise to myself.
Goal #1 Keep Promises
Goal #2 Only set goals for what I can handle
Goal #3 Excercise Daily (my body keeps creaking)
Goal #4 Eat Healthy (this one is so hard for me) I love food.
Goal #5 Read the bible daily
Goal #6 Live cheaply
Goal #7 1 oil painting a month-for myself (thanks brit ♥ )
Goal #8 Put my shoes away. (I keep tripping on them at the door)

That's it for now. Sorry about the delay, not that anyone is really reading this blog.

I'm not sure why I'm writing a blog.

So, I don't really know why I am writing a blog. yes, I know I just repeated the title. But, I'm not! So, maybe I need to accomplish some goals..... It seems kinda motivational.....Telling the whole world everything about me, then whole world wanting me to accomplish something, yada, yada, yada.... This might be too much pressure. No, I really need to do this. I really do feel like my life is not my own.....like the "man" is controlling me. I shouldn't. I stay at home with the kids (2 & 4). I don't feel like we have any financial stress, I have a loving marriage, I love and speak often to God and yet I still feel like there just isn't that much to life. The whole world works all day long, comes home, eats dinner, gets the kids to bed, gets online, and then goes to bed. What am I trying to accomplish here? I guess....if I have some goals and do some cool stuff, then I would feel like I was interesting. Or something. But my "worldly" goals are all there. We are building a house ourselves, I ran a diaper business out of the home, I feel like I am an outstanding mother (the only "homework" I've ever cared to do), I have a often messy but happy little home in the country complete with giant garden and old maple trees and I often talk to God. Man, that does sound like a cute little life I lead. Like something out of "Little House on the Prairie" or something. (Only I have high speed internet, and a cell phone.) I'll think on my goals. For now, I'll just promise to write in this little blog for a while. Ok, how about 30 days. It's probably best if I'm specific.

Bamboo Fleece diaper



Description

I am pleased to introduce my new organic bamboo fleece line of diapers. Once you try this one, you may never go back to diapering as you once knew it!

The Wallaroo One size fitted BAMBOO cloth diaper.

Give your baby the very best diaper. I used this diaper for my own baby and I know it is the highest grade fitted diaper that a parent can buy. It is unsurpassed in fit and style if you would like quick, clean-smelling, and unstained diapers at a reasonable cost.

The Wallaroo top ten:

The Wallaroo fitted....

1.fits babies from 8-35 lbs.

2.is made of Bamboo FLeece with velcro closures.

3.has extra soft velcro zig-zag stitched into the inside of the diaper for a fold over adjustable diaper. This really works!

4.has sewn in stay close laundry tabs made of the same extra soft velcro to prevent the hook velcro from filling with lint or attaching itself to other diapers and making a diaper chain in the dryer.

5.has a Bamboo fleece and microfiber terry absorbent liner which absorbs an amazing ¾ cup of liquid. If you purchase my tri-fold microfiber liner doubler for $1.50 then it absorbs a total of 1 ½ cups of liquid for overnight!

6.only has 2 layers of fabric sewn together to eliminate the “funky” smell problem that some diapers acquire and dries quickly. (The fleece liner has 3 layers, but no "funk")

7.is constructed of high quality fabric, tight stitches, elastic in legs and back, and topstitched to guarantee it will last through several babies.

8.can be bleached!

9.will save you tons of money $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

10.will be your new beloved fitted diaper. (if one can love a fitted diaper!)


PS...Fitted diapers REQUIRE A COVER, or rubber pants! Check out these and other items in my store.
Thanks,
Livy
