    woohoo! Shiny new thread. I just sorted out my jumble of MCNs and found the bonnibuns that don't suit Charlotte now. I'm thinking they will be good for bub en route until a certain age. I have 34 inserts from CTs that died suitable for liners with added booster bonus. I found 16 dead CTs that are going to be dismantled and the minky is going to become a patchwork blanket. and the tub is neatly organised with the Abby Gro and BBH nappies I actually use now! I can feel the decluttering beginning

    WOCB: nothing. Airing her bits before getting dressed for bed!

    I don't have enough nappies that fit Sahti yet, she came out a pound lighter than I was expecting....

    As predicted though - widdlewuns are a perfect fit on her and the only one that doesn't leak at the moment. Darn skinny chicken legs!

    WOMB: sposie cos she's at daycare today
    WOEB: widdlewuns
    WOSB: Mandy Mac with Maz cover. Praying for no leaks.

    wow, new thread!
    hey, im doing a strip wash, but theres no bubbles.... what liquid is best for it? i use that earth choice one and put in about the same as i do for the dishes... but its not bubbly or anything, not even coming out the hose... or is that normal? i remember being told to rinse untill the bubbles are gone, but theres none to start with!
    hoping the sun stays out to whiten up the yellowing stains from lill bubba

    WOBB: purple magicall
    WOKB: purple magiccall but not for much longer, shes stripping off cos dads turned the shower on...

    lol, while pregnant with DD, DP would come home from work to find everything sparkling and occasionally things rearranged lol. When I had a mate visiting we rearranged the loungeroom and master bedroom. It was hilarious really because the visiting male friend is CONSTANTLY like a nesting female with his cleaning anyway. DP came home from work and said "Oh crap, there's 2 of them right now" lol.

    I wanted to get rid of the junk in the nappy tub because it's been bugging me for ages so I finallly cracked it. All of the inserts/liners were put into washing machine and soaked overnight in ecostore powder. I can't sun them right now unfortunately because the puppy is hit and miss with pulling washing off the line. At least he hasn't chewed any clothes and is sticking to DP's old work boots which mainly get dragged around the yard. The dog thought it was Christmas when DP put them in front of it!

    We just got Sam so hoping the sock filled with chilli flakes dangling on the line works in deterring him. He comes from a house with 2 other dogs so I think he would have had more entertainment there. I'm not chancing the MCNs on the line

    lol, I did that, filled it with mince meat and froze it. He went nuts over it but it's more random when he'll tear the clothes off. I think the wind made the clothes look extra fun yesterday because we had a nice breeze all day. They probably taunted him. For him to pull 2 garments off out of 3 loads of washing it's pretty good! I just don't want him to pull the wrong garment off! plus with being up the duff it's hard enough to find clothes that fit without the added frustration of a puppy tearing something!

    I might chance the CT liners/boosters on the line today because I have more than enough. I want them to dry super fast so I can put them away and declutter more.

    WOCB: Soon to be a BBH magicall in marine green. she's mid "business"

    lol! Luckily our puppy doesn't steal off the line! but as soon as anything is on the ground it is hers!! DH's socks (anout 3 pairs) are scattered around our yard all chewed up!! And some of his army boots have copped it too...

    tutto went awesome overnight!! 9:30pm ish through to 11am no leaks! It just smelt really bad. Any tips on how to stop it from smelling? I don't know if I will keep using them overnight if it smells like that...
