I purchased our one way tickets anticipating that she would have her baby late or on time... but a few days after I bought the tickets, little Ezra was born!
We arrived in Oregon and stayed a night with my mom (my sister lives 4 hours driving time from my mom's house, and my mom lives closest to the Portland airport)! Then we made the trip. I was so excited. I had packed some Fuzzi Bunz diapers that I had bought for her (from money donated by friends and family) during the buy 6 get 2 free Fuzzi Bunz deal! I also had several newborn cloth diapers to give her and try on Ezra for the purpose of reviews on the blog! Along with diapers I had been sent a few non-cloth diapering items for review for the upcoming "Newborns and Cloth" event which will be co-hosted by Rebecca over at "One More Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest"
Here is a list of what I received:
1 Bitty Bee cloth diaper from The Little Bee Company
1 Bumgenius xs AIO diaper from Wee Willie Winks
1 Fuzzi Bunz xs diaper from The Green Jelly Bean
1 EcoBubs wool pocket diaper size small (from EcoBubs)
1 Organic fitted crib sheet from Mighty Nest
1 bag of Lulu's in the Fluff laundry powder from My Precious Kid LLC
1 Bitty Bum newborn diaper from Red Barn Cloth Diapers (Nifty Nappy)
1 container of Powdered Laundry detergent from Tropical/Household Traditions
1 Jar of Sheep in a Jar Potion #9, and 1 jar of Liquid Nifty Soap Nuts from Nifty Nappy
1 Pair of xs longies and 1 organic bamboo fitted (OBF) diaper from Sloomb
2 packs of Bamboobies nursing pads (1 pack regular, and 1 pack overnight) from Bamboobies
1 AMP small AI2 diaper from AMP
1 Lil Joey "Lil Monster" diaper from Madison Organics
1 Swaddlebees Mini Nappi from Cloth Diapers Inc.
1 Tiny Tush Elite mini pocket diaper from Better Cloth Diapers
1 bag of Redemption Soap (new, soap-free formula) laundry detergent from Redemption Soap
1 Moby wrap from Lil Roo's
Adriane from Mommy's Own donated a bunch of items for my sister and her son! We received 1 Grovia newborn AIO diaper, a few packages of Earth Mama Angel Baby Monthly Comfort Tea, an Aden and Anais swaddle blanket, and a jar of Earth Mama Angel Baby nipple butter!!
Kim from Petite Bottoms also donated a bunch of items! She sent us a Rumparooz newborn diaper cover, a set of cloth wipes and a contoured cloth diaper (both made by Kim herself)!
I had such fun trying all these wonderful products with my sister and her gorgeous baby! The awesome companies listed above have been so generous to offer giveaways to go along with the product reviews. Some will be giving away the exact item reviewed, others will be giving away gift certificates ranging from $10.00-$50.00!!
You are not going to want to miss out on this event! Newborns in Cloth will start on 11 November and will run until 02 December! During this time, I will be posting at least one review and giveaway per day. Each giveaway will last for two weeks.
