Adventures in Cloth Diapering: Pre-folds vs. AIO

There are so many different choices when it comes to cloth diapers and brands. For my family, we’ve chosen the bum genius brand (one size, all in ones).

My New Favorite

“So you know in horror movies where the girl’s like ‘oh my gosh there’s something in my basement. Let me just run down there in my underwear and see what’s going on in the dark.’ And you’re like what is your problem? Call the police.
