Wondering how to use cloth diapers with Toddlers?
January 27, 2023 7:25 am | by

If you are wondering how to use cloth diapers with toddlers, this post is for you! Cloth diapering a toddler or preschooler is a little different from cloth diapering a snuggly baby who doesn’t do any wiggling. By this time, your priorities may have shifted… You might want a trim solution that will enable your baby to wear the right size pants, for example. Or, you might struggle to find a solution that doesn’t have compression leaks every time your toddler sits down. Whether you’re looking for a way to increase absorbency (to handle a toddler who is holding their pee and

Fun activities to have fun on a rainy day

Summer is here! Take your kids outside and enjoy the weather. Here in St. Louis, we like to say, “If you don’t like the weather… wait.” That’s because it’s not uncommon for major temperature shifts to occur. On some days, it can feel like a different season between morning and afternoon. If it gets too hot it’s a rainy day, here’s a list of activities you can do together. Have fun! Jump in the puddles on a rainy day Of course, every now and then, you have to embrace a rainy day. Grab some galoshes, an umbrella and a raincoat

 
What to Pack When Traveling with a Toddler

Traveling with a toddler

My family and I recently went on a trip across the country from St. Louis to California. This was our first big trip with our little girl, who is now 2 and a half years old. We were headed to Disneyland for a couple of days, then down to San Diego for some family time at the beach. To say I was nervous about the trip would be an understatement. I had lists for my lists a month ahead of time because I was so worried I would forget something. I’ve compiled one last list for you of my must-have

 
Raising a Fiercely Determined Child
November 22, 2016 12:10 pm | by

I have a fiercely determined child.  She’s smart, beautiful, creative, and once she puts her mind to something, there is no stopping her.  You can try to slow her down, but actually stopping her from what she has set her heart on is highly unlikely.  Raising Avianna Marilyn has been a learning process for me. Avianna was born 5 years ago on a beautiful October morning.  Her birth was the easiest out of my three girls.  I was at the hospital for only 45 minutes before she was born, and the entire experience was amazing.  I pushed three times, and this

Our baby and fur baby are almost exactly three years apart. Asher came along when Melvin (the pup) was just three and it’s been an adjustment since. Melvin was pretty good when it came to getting used to Asher being around, but I can tell he isn’t always interested in playing when Asher is eager to have some fun. On occasion he will entertain Asher, but Melvin is pretty laid back and would rather be napping on the couch or hiding out somewhere.  Melvin is a smaller dog, a Shih-Tzu, and his demeanor is just easy. He’s a very well-behaved

Valentine’s Day is such a fun holiday — one that’s filled with lots of sweets and love!

Aside from this craft being a bonding experience, it also promotes fine motor skill use and independence. Here’s how

 
Handling Picky Eaters
January 18, 2016 7:32 pm | by

My little guy has always been a great eater. Ever since he first started solids, there was rarely anything he didn’t like. After he turned two, I worried that his great little eating habits would change, but they didn’t. I thought we were in the clear, well, that was until he turned three and now we’re learning how to handle a picky eater! For the last four months, my eager little eater has now turned into a persnickety muncher who turns his nose up at the sight of anything that’s not a boiled egg, pack of fruit snacks, or cereal. We’ve had

 
Cloth 101: When to Change a Cloth Diaper
September 7, 2015 6:49 pm | by
Prepping Cloth Diapers

We’ve all seen THAT baby — the baby who’s running around with a disposable diaper that looks like it weighs 15 pounds and is sagging well below the waist. By now, we should all (hopefully) know that when a diaper droops, it’s usually a clear indication that it’s time for a change. In general, it’s easy to tell when a disposable diaper needs to be replaced. But with cloth, you’re not as lucky. Cloth diapers are not equipped with absorbent materials that turn into a squishy gel when wet, which, with a simple poke, tells you that your baby should be changed.
