Spoils for Spring
March 1, 2011 6:04 am | by

Happy first day of March! I don’t know about you, but I am definitely ready for spring this year. On Sunday, we had mild weather and my family had a lovely afternoon. We played outdoors, basked in the sunshine and let our creative juices flow all over the sidewalk in chalk.


To celebrate the first day of March, today we’ll be helping you prepare for the warmer weather when you get to put your love of cloth diapers on display for everyone to see. Before we know it, the weather will be warm enough for most of us to let our little ones out and about in our favorite cloth diaper and favorite BabyLegs.

To enter today’s blog giveaway, please leave a comment with your favorite springtime activity. What are you most looking forward to this spring?

Five random blog commenters will be selected as winners. Each will receive a prize pack with a bumGenius Artist Series Tiny Socialite Collection cloth diaper and a coordinating pair of BabyLegs from the newest additions to our bumGenius BabyLegs collection.

Eligible entries must be posted today, Tuesday, March 1, 2011. U.S. Residents only. Void where prohibited by law. No purchase necessary to win. Winners will be notified via e-mail.

    I love going to the beach in the spring/summer and look forward to it even more this year as I get to introduce my new daughter to the ocean. She loves water, and I can’t wait to see her reaction to the ocean and the waves!

    I was just going to say getting outside in the sunshine doing *anything* but now I’m more inspired, and I’ll add watching my husband get our garden ready. (I have the opposite of a green thumb, so it’s for the best, really, that I do nothing more than watch… Maybe our new baby will be his helper when she gets bigger….)

    Sunny walks! We actually got out today for an extra special walk, since I had to pick our darling 4 month old a little early from daycare. She is loving her walks with the moby wrap on some of our local nature trails! She’d love them even MORE in a new diaper with some baby legs!

    We have been having spring weather already (I live in south Mississippi). I enjoy going for walks, watching my son play outside, leaving the windows open and hanging clothes outside (love the smell). I also love that we will be getting our garden ready-looking forward to some fresh veggies!

    Since bubs is older this year (he’s now 13mths) I like to push him in the stroller with hubby up to the park.. He giggles so much on the swing I just love it, so the warmer weather will make it so much more fun to do this… can’t wait for family spring time with my two fav boys!

  • Angie said...

    I’m looking forward to three things about Spring!

    1. Walks after school withthe hubby and little stinker.
    2. Stinker swinging again, which he loves to do!
    3. Playing in the drive when we come home instead of vanishing into the house.

    Oh, and I guess I’m also looking forward to graduating with my masters in reading education in May!

I think he’ll actually ‘get’ it this year. His reactions should be priceless and maybe my garden w ill actually survive this year. We like to take the extra veggies to the food pantry in town and id like to bring them more than lettuce this year.

    Our first spring with a baby. I can’t wait to experience spring through a child’s eyes – splashing in puddles (do they make Wellies for a 9 month old?), looking for worms, watching the Robins nest on our back deck and the babies hatch, spring storms (that started in January in STL), and all the other wonders of nature!

    P.S. Props to the West Co staff – we visited on Saturday with tons of questions about carseats and carriers and they were fantastic, as always. I left WAY more informed and they convinced my husband to give up the Bjorn for the Ergo (I needed some reinforcements on that one!). Thanks, ladies!!

    This spring is special to me since I am due with a baby boy in June. These next few months are the last days when it will be just DD, me, and DH alone. What special times! This spring I want to give her as much of myself as I can, before she has a sibling and must share mama and dada! 🙂 cristenhyde at gmail dot com

    I’m looking forward to lounging in the hammock in the back yard while the kids (5 and 18 months) play. Soaking up some vitamin D while listening to happy kids is the best way to recover from the cold winter months 🙂

    Spring to me always reminds me of new life. I’m expecting my second child at the end of March and I’m so excited to meet this new little joy! I get excited daydreaming about this spring because I get to watch my little boy play in the park while I snuggle with my newborn taking in the good ol’ Vitamin D. The aroma of flowers, fresh cool breeze, and warm sun are just the little things I can’t wait to enjoy. Sharing it with my family is even better. No more hibernation for us!

We were married in a private ceremony a few years ago, but after buying a house and having our child, we’re finally having our wedding and reception that we have always wanted! So exciting!

Especially when all the dogwood trees bloom in the park even better when there is a group of musicians playing outside and people dancing! Our family loves those things!

    I cannot wait for it to be warm enough to take my little ones out for walks and not worry about them catching a cold. I also cannot wait for it to be warm enough to hang my diapers on the line again!

    So excited for spring! I am looking forward the most for the snow and ice on the sidewalks to melt so I can take the dogs and my daughter on long walks in the nice spring air! Also love daffodils and tuilps poking their heads up!

    My daughter just turned 2, and is now aware of the world around her.
    I can’t wait to just be able to go for walks and watch as she gets excited about all the new blooms. It’s so fun to relive my childhood through her eyes

    Playing outside! It is my 4 year olds favorite thing to do and it lifts my spirits too, making me a better mama. But, the thing I am looking forward to the most is the birth of our second son due in April!!

    I am looking forward to getting out of the house with my baby WITHOUT bundling up first, lots more sunshine, the end of the school year (and thus a summer off for my wife and me), trying for baby number two, and some fun trips.

    While I probably should say: Welcoming a new baby in May, instead I’ll say warmer weather. This winter had been brutal!

    Spring means that things warm up from 20-30 degrees to 50-65 degrees here, so we can actually go outside for walks and play in the neighborhood playground! With a toddler turning 2 this month, this has us SO excited!

    We don’t really have spring here in Florida so with our warmer temps lately we’ve been enjoying time at the park, wagon rides around the neighborhood and trips to the zoo. My daughter loves being outside!

    Spring is probably our favorite season. It’s been a grumpy winter, and we’re ready to have a full spring in our new house. We love to take walks and check out wildflowers, pick up sticks, check out the newly budding trees, walk along the creek and see if we can spot fish or frogs, jump in mud puddles, get some yard and garage work done, and just in general have fun outside. (As an aside, my daughter wore her cloth diapers outside all summer last year. She rarely wore pants–it IS possible to get blue latex based house paint AND transmission fluid/assorted engine grease out of cloth diapers)…

    I live in an area with lots of snow (Michigan), and can’t wait to get out and go for walks with my little one! Seeing all the snow melt, and smelling the fresh dirt, and watching the flowers come up… ohh I’m so anxious for spring!

  • Minka said...

    Taking walks to the park and the library! Or generally being outside and getting some sunshine!
