Little Tush Diaper Co

the only way he'd hold still for a picture

My first non-me-made diaper! I wanted to try someone else's style, so I found an inexpensive, but well made diaper at Little Tush Diaper Co.  I was so excited when they arrived, I almost woke Brendon up from his nap to put him in them! I was so excited for SNAPS! but I was kinda let down. Not by the diapers, but by my son's...um...build. Brendon sits right between the largest wing setting and the medium setting. He'll fit into middle rise setting, snuggly, but it's a little loose on the largest. *sigh* I am doomed to have a weirdly shaped kid. Eh, I love him anyways. Especially when he leans in about an inch from my nose and just waits for me to kiss him. *awww*

Back to Little Tush Diapers, they're sewed well, pocket style with two microfiber inserts and a flannel (I think) lining. Besides Brendon being in between sizes, I only have two concerns. One I have is that I'm afraid I'm going to either rip the snap apart when I open the diaper, or rip the fabric. I don't know if there's a "cure" for that phobia or even a prevention, but it's just my feeling.
Second, is wing drop. I know, I know, pretty much unavoidable unless there's a hip snap, but I guess I should mention it. It's not horrible, I haven't had a leak (even with naptime), it just looks stretched out. And part of that, is if I set it on the smaller snap setting, like it pulls it too tight. 
I used a Little Tush Diaper as a AI2 diaper today, because I could only find one of my pockets. It worked fine. The lining didn't seem to soak up any moisture, and dried quickly between uses.
I only have pictures of him in one and wearing it on the medium setting because getting Brendon to hold still for pictures is near impossible these days.
All-in-all, I do like these diapers, and I think it's safe to say that I will getting a few more for the next kid. They'll fit better on a smaller kid, I'm sure.

Reduce Water Bottles

I won these water bottles from one of my favorite review sites, Stuff Parents Need. I try to drink lots of water at work, but I usually forget to grab a bottle (disposable, unfortunately) so I end up paying $1.25 for ONE BOTTLE, that usually gets stuck in my bag and forgotten about.

These don't really help the stuck-in-the-bag trick, but they do help with the cost and the trash!

As you can see, there are five bottles, with a tray, supposedly one for each day, but I usually end up rinsing the same one out for a few days.

They're cute, too. They're light weight, and they're shatter-proof. I know, I just dropped on on the floor. It made the awfullest noise, like a glass falling, but no break-glass-shards-on-the-floor.

I think the only thing I don't like about these is that they aren't leak-proof. I found it out the hard way. I put it in my bag sideways, because I assumed they wouldn't leak. I tried tightening it tighter, but the cap and the bottle are rigid, so they don't really conform to each other.

But the mouth hole/spout, whatever, is a good size. You know how the Gatorade bottles have a really wide mouth so that it feels like my nose is going to end up in it? Yeah, these totally aren't like that :)
