Green Baby

In an effort to go green, we're planning to use cloth diapers.  We're also borrowing several things instead of buying them.  Reduce, Reuse!  I've borrowed maternity clothes, baby clothes, a car seat, and a bouncer among other things.

We're also planning to use cloth diapers and doing a cloth diaper trial with Jilliansdrawers.com.  It's actually quite a great idea.  We're using their diapers for $10 for 21 days.  We get to try out several different types and brands, pay for the ones we want and give back the ones we don't.  Even if they're stained!  So our plan is to do the newborn trial, then do the big baby trial and then buy some.  To practice using them, I tried them on the stuffed animals.  Michael's response when he saw the animals posing in their diapers, "Well, that's disappointing.." 


While we were at it, I let Harvey try out the infant seat.  It looks like he's just about the exact size of a newborn baby, right?
