Cloth diapering Tag

I just got rid of my last cloth diaper. Crusoe will likely be in diapers for the next 12ish months, but our diapers were SHOT and I couldn't deal with the leaking anymore. Though we would still save money by buying another set of cloth...

My bestie Janelle (or in "Borbie" terms "Nelle") asked what kind of diapering we would do until Jaeda was big enough to fit into our Smartipants. I was seriously considering buying some newborn cloth diapers, since we're pretty sure we'll need them again...
