Him: Duh-iaper?

Fact: Babies will make a mess all over you, don't think you can avoid it!
Fact: It smells, it's messy, it's going to be fun!

SNAP!

Yes, the diapers will be a-flyin', or hopefully they will be well secured on baby when the time comes. And on that note, this what I wanted to talk about. Mommy has already talked about this, but I wanted to have a go at what I think of the topic as well: Cloth versus Disposable diapers.

We will be using cloth diapers, if it isn't already obvious enough. For what reasons? I believe that from our point of view the biggest benefit of the cloth diaper is the enormous amount of waste you prevent. Other perks include them costing significantly less, and another great one is that baby will love the fact that it's not a crappy piece of rubber/plastic scratching up against baby's back side. That means less rash and more happy baby! And we want a happy baby at all times.

One of the things we have been debating is getting a diaper service to clean the diapers or not. Yes, it would be much easier to just have to change baby and then toss those dirty suckers in a bucket and have someone else clean them, but then again we aren't unable to do it ourselves. It's just washing, nothing special.

Which brings up another key point. Our washing machine, well not really ours, is not the greatest on the land. So, do we buy a new washer, or get a service? We will still need a washing machine in the future, thus I don't think it is a waste of money to buy a new one while we are here. And it would be nice to have our very own and not have to worry when the current one doesn't quite do its job right.

I think that baby will be happier with some nice clean diapers, washed by mommy and daddy no less, up against them.

And more spending ensues!

-Another great day
