Flip covers...

...came in the mail yesterday!! With a free 4.0 to boot!

They are all washed and ready to go! I loooooove my bumGenius 4.0 pockets, but I was really anxious to try a hybrid diaper. I like how the inserts fit in the covers (I guess I'm a bad stuffer...I tend to get bunches in my pockets), and Bug doesn't seem to know the difference.

My plan is to use the Flips during the day and the 4.0s for naps and night time (I can double stuff and it won't shift).

Exciting!

In other news, my little brother flew in from Nashville this morning to celebrate my hubby graduating and my birthday (both on saturday). It should be a blast, most of my family is coming, hubby's family is more spread out.

Bug really likes her uncle and kept smiling at him during lunch. She is such a ham sometimes. I can't believe she is 10.5 months old. It's just crazy.

More to come as I spend some time with the Flips. :)

concerted effort

Quite a few changes to be made. I think the reason I have done so poorly at blogging is because I have tried too hard to try and categorize my blog (i.e. "Well, I think I'll only talk about *this* type stuff"). This has OBVIOUSLY been wildly successful for me.

After much reevaluation, I think I will continue to blog...whatever I feel like. (I know this seems simple, but I blame baby-brain.)

I have taken on many new projects since I've started staying at home. I left my job in May, and needing some things to occupy Bug's nap times. I love baking, and I had tried making bread a couple of times, so I thought it would be fun to take that up. I have mastered (to my family's taste) sandwich bread, both white and wheat, pizza crusts, pitas, and my granny's hot water rolls. I'm excited about trying new breads.

My mom gave me her sewing machine. Not much interesting is happening there...I still sew about as well as I did 10 years ago. (Read: I straight seam.)

Bug is growing up soooo quickly. I am so impressed at her skills. She is just a blast to be around.

I mean seriously, is she not the cutest thing?

I'm so ready for her Flip covers to get here tomorrow!!! Don't get me wrong, I LOOOOVE BG4.0, but I'm anxious to try Flip.

I starting working for this company called Melaleuca. I work from home which is the absolute best part about the job.

I think that's about it for changes.
