Ok so maybe I am just a little bit crazy. Maybe it was my 5 years working for housing that brought out the little environmentalist in me or maybe it was just the raging hormones making me kinda loony while I was pregnant, either way I'm still stuck with $600 worth of cloth diapers that will eventually save us money if I can just keep with it long enough. Did you know that the average baby produces 1 ton of dirty diapers a year? Times that by 2 babies for at least 2 years and thats 8000 lbs of poopy diapers that my family will not be contributing to the landfill. Somehow I don't think this bit of trivia has inspired the warm fuzzies in Hailee and Atticus. Maybe they're just upset because the diapers make their hips look fat.
