Welcome to my blog! I'm Sari, a mother of a 2 year old girl and 7 year old boy/girl twins. I started this blog 6 years ago when I started using cloth diapers. If you scroll back to the earlier posts, you can see my learning adventure with the twins, there's a lot of really helpful information if you are interested in cloth diapers. I hope that this can be a valuable source of information for other moms contemplating making the switch to cloth diapers and/or making their own diapers.

Now I'm using this as more of a general "mom blog". I'm crafty, I like to bake and I'm currently a group fitness instructor and a Beachbody coach. I may plug my own business every so often (click here!), but I will expand my topics to cover basically anything that I feel like writing about - experiences I have or products that I think deserve a review (both good and bad). If I'm getting paid or benefiting in any way then that will be mentioned in the post.

Do you have a product that you would like me to try and review? Send me an email

My 15 minutes of gDiaper fame...

I came in third in the gDiapers sweet deal promotion. I am very excited about that! For being in the top three, I got a gift certificate for $200! How awesome is that? I am so excited to pick out my new gDiapers :) They also put a little write-up about me on the gDiapers Facebook fan page. Check it out!

Sorry I've been MIA on keeping up this blog. I've been really getting into my cloth diapers and I have TONS of helpful information to add. In the near future, I will have a more organized website (not in blog format) where it will be easier to find things - like video tutorials, diaper reviews, contest and sales, etc.

I stumbled upon and unheard of deal today for Goodmamas. The entire site was 50% off! I had decided (in the past) not to buy any GMs for several reasons. First, they are very expensive at $33-35 a pop. Even the clearance diapers at $24 were a little too much to spend. I kind of draw the line at $20 BSRBs, and even then, I only bought 2 of them. Second, I have heard that many of the diapers come with damaged snaps and GM customer service is not too great. You have to pay to send back your already overpriced diaper to get it fixed. Third, many people have said that the serged edges of the GMs irritate their baby's legs. Well, today I purchased one of the $24 clearance diapers for an unheard of $12!!! It came to $16.16 with shipping included. How could I pass that up? If I want to make diapers - possibly to sell - I need to experience first-hand the most popular diapres, and GMs are certainly up there on the list of most popular fitteds. This is the diaper that I bought. Not my first choice in patterns, but it was the only one left. I think they are completely sold out now.
