"Birthday Blessings Bash" Happy Heinys One Size Pocket diaper review and #GIVEAWAY {Go Green Baby Company} US and Canada *Canadians to pay shipping cost*

I'm loving this Birthday Blessings bash event. Yesterday we had a party for my *sigh* now 4 yo son. I really can't believe he is 4! So inquizitive and such a blessing to our family. I am so thankful to God for giving us both our boys! We truly are blessed! The "Birthday Blessings Bash" event has been a lot of fun.... no, it's not over. In fact I have a ton more reviews and giveaways to post... finding the time to do so is a bit challenging but I'm getting there. Okay here we go!

Today I'm blogging about the Happy Heinys One Size pocket diaper which was sent to me for review from Go Green Baby Company!
This is what I received:

The thing that really caught my eye with this diaper was the snaps! Just look at all those snaps:

This is a one-size diaper designed to fit babies from 8-35 lbs!
It has a generous pocket opening in the back which is really nice if your hubby likes to help stuff diapers!

It fit my 2 yo perfectly! (Although I must admit it is getting more difficult to take pictures of him modeling the diapers. He likes to run around the house and play 'tag' whenever I have the camera in my hands)!

Here is a bit more information about Go Green Baby Company (taken from their website):
"My name is Katie and I’m a green Mom. I have a wonderful supportive husband, Kenny, and a spunky daughter, Brynne, born in February 2010.

Like all new mothers, my pregnancy got me thinking about my role as a parent. I wanted to make decisions that were natural and healthy for her and had a limited impact on the environment.

Our Passion for Sustainability and Living Green

Our family is a huge advocate for living green, and we feel it’s an even more important lifestyle choice now that we have a baby. We use only cloth diapers, love to grow vegetables in our garden, make our own baby food, shop locally, and buy second hand or re-use products to minimize our contribution to the landfill. Initially many of our friends and family were skeptical about cloth diapers and natural parenting. However, our experience has shown how fun and easy it can be, even when using cloth diapers.

Go Green Baby Company is a reflection of our passion for sustainability, and desire to share our experience with those who want to live green while raising a family. My background as a social worker and working with adoptive families has helped me to appreciate the power families have to make a positive impact on the world. Each of your personal choices make a difference, and you can start by teaching your child about sustainable living at a young age.

Our goal at Go Green Baby Company is to provide families with information and support, offer a way to connect with like-minded parents, and serve as a resource for fun, affordable, top quality green products for kids. Most importantly, we want to educate people about the cost savings, positive environmental impact and health benefits of using cloth diapers."
I really love the fact that this company was born from one mom's desire to live a sustainable lifestyle!
I think that is awesome!
I also really like that they carry so many different cloth-diapering items.

Happy Heinys one size Diaper Review and GIVEAWAY!!

Another great diaper was sent to me from SweetPeas Cloth for review! Before I get into the review of this diaper, I would like to tell you a bit more about Kayla (owner of SweetPeas Cloth, and sponsor of this review and giveaway)! Kayla started Sweet Peas Cloth in January, 2010 after she found it near impossible to find all of her cloth diapering needs in one place. She was having to shop at 5 different places just to get what she needed, so she opened up her on-line only shop called SweetPeas Cloth! Shortly after e-mailing Kayla back and forth about this review, I found out she is currently expecting, and that her unborn baby Aiden had been diagnosed with some pretty serious medical conditions. Aiden has been diagnosed with a chromosonal disorder called 22q deletion, also known as DiGeorge's Syndrome! Aiden also has spina bifida, heart defects and only one kidney! Kayla is only 24 weeks pregnant, and is scheduled to deliver Aiden on June 28th via c-section! Aiden is not expected to live long after he is born! My heart goes out to this family. I cannot imagine being in Kayla's shoes right now. I would like to ask each one of you reading this blog right now to pray for Kayla and Aiden! I know that our God is a powerful God and He can perform miracles. I would love to see this baby born compelty healthy and whole. I know it can be done! If, He chooses to do so! If you would like to follow Kayla and Aiden's journey through life, you can check out the blog Kayla has started called "Journey With Aiden." Kayla is planning on using cloth diapers on Aiden in the NICU! I think this is awesome! Did you know that Happy Heinys also make a Micro Mini diaper? These diapers were created to fit premature babies! What an awesome concept! **Thank you Happy Heinys** Kayla so kindly sent me this adorable Happy Heinys one size cloth diaper in "Peace Bears!" This is what I received:

This is what the diaper looks like all laid out: I just had to add this picture too, because it shows really well the quality design of the diaper, not to mention the stinkin' cute print! Ok, so now we all know how cute this diaper is, but what else makes this a great diaper?

Well, let me count the ways!

1. Its made in the USA

2. It is affordable (retails for $16.95-$17.95 and fits baby from 8-35 lbs)!!

3. They come in really cute colors and prints to include diapers that glow-in-dark

4. They also come in snaps!!!

I also just found out that Happy Heinys also make Heiny Huggers (which is a sherpa fitted diaper)! I am dying to try that one... and they also make wool covers! Wow! All made in the USA!! *did I already mention that*?

So I tried this diaper on my 3 year old son... he's 33+ lbs and this is how the diaper fit:

Many of you know that my favorite diapers are ones with snaps, but I must say that the Velcro on these diapers are very durable and even after several washes, they are not all frayed and worn looking! That is another plus! Oh, and I did try this diaper on my 14 month old (19 lb) son as well, and it fit him great also!


Here is the diaper on the smallest setting:


Here is the diaper on the largest setting:
Are you ready to try this diaper? You can buy this diaper at SweetPeas Cloth for $16.95-$17.95!! Win it: SweetPeas Cloth owner Kayla has generously offered one Happy Heinys One Size pocket diaper in choice of print/color *subject to whats available in stock* to one lucky LWML follower!
