Keeping germs away
November 14, 2012 4:00 pm | by

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas? No, that was actually a little bit of sarcasm on my part — it’s cold and flu season again! Just when you thought you’d made it through, it’s back. Nothing brings out the sniffles and stomach bugs like sending your precious children back to school to exchange germs with their friends. But never fear! We are here to remind you of some simple and easy ways that we can all help our kids maintain their immunity and ward off those pesky germs.   Hand washing – did you know that you

Tuesday Giveaway: Freetime for the holidays!
November 13, 2012 5:26 pm | by

Who doesn’t need a little extra free time during the holidays? bumGenius Freetime is a convenient, all-in-one style cloth diaper that doesn’t require stuffing, saving a little bit of time every time you wash your cloth diapers. Sure, stuffing pocket style cloth diapers only takes 10-15 minutes every few days, but what could you do with an extra hour each week during the holidays? Bake some cookies, wrap gifts, read a book in front of the fire, knit a pair of mittens or maybe you would rather just take a nap. As a mom, I can’t guarantee any of those

Undercover Mama
November 9, 2012 1:00 pm | by

One of the challenges many nursing mothers face is a limited wardrobe. Your old favorite shirt will not accomodate a nursing babe without exposing your entire side to the cool fall air and anyone nearby. Short of buying a brand new wardrobe of nursing-friendly shirts, what is a new mom to do? Nursing camisoles are one option, but they are often sized small, medium and large instead of the more specific sizes of nursing bras. That’s when you need Undercover Mama. Designed to convert any style of nursing bra into a camisole or tank top, Undercover Mama helps you stay

Warehouse Roulette – It’s not Lubricant
November 8, 2012 6:30 am | by

  Who knew real commercials would become compelling, 60 second stories? It’s been so long since we’ve seen real commercials on TV, it feels strange. I wonder if the local car dealers spent any time reworking their commercials? Maybe upgrade the low-res graphics and start shooting them/rendering them in HD? Nah….      Woop! Woop! We’ll give you eight thousand dollars over Kelly Blue Book!    $99 down, $99 a month!   Only on this specific car: Inventory number 106969. We keep all rebates and incentives. Doesn’t include taxes, title, paying for this commercial, hair gel, wheel degreaser, pin stripes

Nap Time
November 7, 2012 3:45 pm | by

I love naps. It’s no secret. I still take a nap, at least once a week, whenever possible. One of the best pieces of advice I received as a new mom was to “Sleep when baby sleeps.” I have now expanded that to “Sleep when any child is sleeping.” Here’s the kicker though: there are no newborns in my house, so I don’t really have an excuse for taking a nap other than the fact that I just like sleep. Maybe I’m just one of those people who requires more sleep than others. It could also be that I’m simply

November 6, 2012 4:30 pm | by

Today is a day we celebrate the right to choose! Here at Cotton Babies we’re not only celebrating the right to chose our leaders and government representatives, but also our right to chose the type of cloth diaper that works best for you and your baby. We believe the best candidate for choice is Flip Diapers! Flip diapers gives you the choice of two different closures in the cover, as well as the choice of three different types of absorbent inserts for whatever situation life may throw at you. Whether you need the ease of hook & loop or the

Cotton Babies Birthday Party: Turn your +1 into +12!
November 2, 2012 10:36 am | by

Everyone enjoys a party, right? And we all know the best parties allow you to bring a friend (or 10) along too! The Cotton Babies Birthday Party is tomorrow! So with that being said, we believe the bigger the party, the better, and we’re allowing you to bring as many friends as you like. Even better, you don’t have to make room in your car for them, wait in the driveway while they finish fixing their hair or take them home afterward. You can arrive separately, at any time during the party and when they present their invitation, we’ll know

Warehouse Roulette – Taking a Dump
November 1, 2012 5:00 am | by

  Shazam!      Rise from the dead!    Can it be?    Is it true?    Are blueberries blue?    Yes!   Can you believe it? A new Warehouse Roulette post!    It’s Halloween (well, was, it’s tomorrow today), so, just like leftover fish in the fridge, it’s a grand day to resurrect Warehouse Roulette from the dead.    In case you forgot or have no idea what Warehouse Roulette is, it’s my way of having something to write about. I’ve been bugged by Jenn and others to write posts on the blog for a long time, but I
