BumGenius Elemental AIO Review and $15 GC Giveaway to Thanks Mama!!

The lovely folks over at Thanks Mama were kind enough to send me a BumGenius Elemental Organic One-Size all in one diaper in Moonbeam to review!!!

This is what I received (isn't it beautiful)?

This is the diaper on the smallest setting:
Medium setting:
Largest setting:
The inside of this diaper is 100% organic cotton, and let me tell you, it is soooo soft! I love the fact that the fabric against my boys' skin is 100% organic!! Yay!
This is an all in one diaper, so there is no stuffing, folding or covering involved, you simply use it as is! The extra absorbent layers are simply sewn into the diaper, as seen here:

And here...
Being this diaper is an all in one, it does take a bit longer to dry compared to regular pocket diapers, but I don't mind that at all! I tested this diaper's absorbency by putting it on my boys at nap time, no leaks! This diaper is awesome, and is the simplest diaper to use! I really love it and think I have found yet another new favorite! It is my go to diaper for nap time (especially for my 3 yo heavy wetter)! I did not try this diaper at night, since I have discovered the wonderful world of wool! Wool is the only thing I use on both boys at night now!
