Where has the summer gone?
It’s now almost September — waaah! That means my maternity leave is practically over…this summer seems to have gone by so quickly! I’ve just been enjoying every day with Natalie. She’s so much more interactive now and it’s all the more fun to play with her. Some developmental things with her in this last month: Grabbing things with her hands — this started off with only her right hand and then about 2 weeks later, she started using her left hand. Together, she’s learned to coordinate them and loves grabbing things. Unfortunately, this often means mommy’s hair (need to remember to put hair back…). I’ve gotten a number of little…

Fluffy delivery is here!
I now finally have all of my initial cloth diapers! Here’s a picture: I’m so excited — now I can get started on doing some major prewashing and then hopefully start putting them into use tomorrow! Oh, and why a “fluffy” delivery? Apparently, in the cloth diapering community, people often refer to their cloth diapers as “fluff”—because of the bulk, it makes baby butts look all fluffy! (at least that’s my interpretation)
