BabyKicks Bumboo Pocket version 2.0
(includes a free super absorbent Joey-Bunz hemp insert)

From BabyKicks:
“The wonderful BabyKicks Bumboo Pocket Diaper is a one-size diaper that is incredible trim and thin. It features luxurious inner lining which ensures only the softest fibers touch baby’s most sensitive areas. The innovative micro fleece barrier design prevents wicking to the outside and special fleece leg air gussets stop leaks and hold messes in while allowing airflow to help prevent diaper rash. No blow-outs or inserts hanging out of the back of this diaper due to the front stuffing pocket. Side snap closures are long lasting, user friendly and prevent wing-droop. Colorful snaps look cute and can function as intuitive, color coded sizing guide (if you choose the multi-colored snap option). No cover required due to our super soft breathable waterproof outer shell.”

From Valerie:
“Hi Candace! I just recieved the Huggabunz bamboo prefold! It is BEAUTIFUL and so soft! My son is 5 months old, and he is a pretty large boy (18 pounds and VERY long) so he is almost too big for it, but it will make a fantastic doubler and I have a baby on the way that will get a lot of use out of it. I got some pics of him in it, snappi’d on him the best I could. Here are some of the photos I got. Thanks again for everything. I plan on buying some of these prefolds because they feel sooo good!”

I just want to hug him and squeeze him! Moosh moosh.

I can’t even believe how cute this dude is.

This Snap-EZ Eco Cloth Diaper Prize Pack includes…

1) a Cherry one-size pocket diaper (the red one)

2) a large soaker and a medium soaker

3) a set of 4 Eco Wipes: sherpa on one side, cotton velour on the other. Great as cloth wipes, washcloths, or makeup removers…

4) and a medium frost blue wet bag!
