5 Ways to Use Baking Soda for Babies

Calley — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 16:00:19 +0000

Many parents don’t start looking for environmentally friendly options in their lives until after they have babies. We want only the most natural of items to touch those precious little babies and all of their baby parts. We clean their clothes in gentle detergent. We wash their skin in sensitive soaps. We put the softest diapers on their little bums. Here are a few ways you can use that little yellow box of Baking Soda – for your baby!

5 Ways to Use Baking Soda for Babies

Stain remover – add 1/2 cup of baking soda with your favorite detergent to remove those pesky baby stains (like spit up on your favorite shirt or brand new onesie).
Clean toys – make a solution of 1 part baking soda to 4 parts water and rub down your favorite baby toys. Follow with a quick rinse and their toys will be squeaky clean.
Diaper pail stinkies? Sprinkle a little bit of baking soda in your diaper pail or wet bag to help keep the odors away. This trick works for both disposable and cloth diapers. With cloth diapers it’s not recommended to use baking soda in the wash so sprinkle the baking soda in the bottom of your pail or wet bag instead of directly on the diapers.
Diaper rash – you can add 2 TBS to a tub full of warm water to help soothe your babies skin if they happen to have a diaper rash. (Be sure to consult a doctor or medical professional if rash is severe or for open sores)
Cradle cap relief – make a paste using baking soda and olive oil (or baby oil) and gently rub on babies scalp to remove the flaky areas.

There are a million and one other uses for baking soda for your baby, cleaning, pets, and even for a little homemade spa treatments. How do you use baking soda around your home?

Shaklee Kids Vitamins & Supplements Review

Calley — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 21:58:00 +0000

Do your kids take vitamins and mineral supplements? I’ve never been that great at remembering to take vitamins myself. My husband is much better at that type of stuff. I can’t even remember to take my daily medication. My children have both become quite fond of taking their vitamins though thanks to Shaklee Kids Incredibites and Mighty Smart supplements.

Both my 8yr old and my 3yr old ask for their vitamins every morning while they are getting ready for school. It’s (finally) become part of our morning routine. This is the season in Florida when vitamins can be very helpful for keeping my kids healthy. The Florida weather can be bright and sunny and 80 in the afternoons – or it can be chilly (for our standards) and 40 in the morning. Perfect weather for our little ones to get sick.

Have you heard of Shaklee before? It’s not a new brand or company. In fact, they have been around for over 50 years and are a very environmentally friendly company. Here are just a few random eco-facts about the Shaklee Corporation:

They created one of the first biodegradable household cleaners back in the 1960′s.
They have never, and will never, test their products on animals.
They were the first company in the world to go Carbon Neutral, meaning they have net zero impact on the environment.
They rescue and recycle one ton of other companies cardboard.
They have a long history of environmental stewardship awards from several state agencies and from the EPA.

Today they have a full line of healthy home, healthy beauty, and and nutrition products including the Shakleebaby line.

Five things I loved about the ShakleeKids Incredibites:

No artificial sweeteners,
No artificial colors,
No preservatives,
Contains 23 essential nutrients, and
My kids ASK to take them!

I’m still a few days away from posting my review of the ones&twos AIO system but you can watch a brief video from another blogger, Tara from Padded Tush Stats. I can tell you that we tested it overnight on our tot with the extra booster added and it held up for 11 hrs with no leaks. It sure was soaked but it held up like a trooper!!

Giving Diapers, Giving Hope Helps to Diaper Babies in Need

Calley — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 04:53:21 +0000

I am in the minority – many Americans face the decision between diapers and food every day because they simply cannot afford both. Like many Americans I tend to turn the other way and pretend like these problems don’t affect me – but they do. They may not affect me personally but they do affect my community and they do affect hundreds (probably millions) of Americans – some that I walk past every day. That person in line next to me at Wal-Mart, or that child who attends school with my babes, or that family who is attending our church for the first time - or maybe it’s you!

There aren’t many places that I decide to give my hard earned money to without questions. I donate/tithe to our church community (almost) every week. I donate to the Real Diaper Association once or twice a year. And most recently I have donated both diapers and money to an organization that is helping to diaper families across America.

This is my little helper carrying 2 boxes of diapers that we donated last week. One box was shipped to a friend on mine who just lost her job, has 2 babies in diapers, and a very small and aging stash of bumGenius 3.0s. The second (and larger) box was shipped to Giving Diapers, Giving Hope.

Inside the box for Giving Diapers, Giving Hope you can see some of my favorite diapers – many of which were provided to me by the manufacturers to review on this blog.

Since we are mostly potty trained (only in diapers at nighttime) I decided it was FINALLY time to let some of the stash go to babies who are in need. My husband suggested that I sell some of them but I just couldn’t do it – my heart has been leading me to this organization for months now and I had to listen to my heart.

In April 2010, Giving Diapers, Giving Hope was started by Kristen McCarthy and Emily Glover (whom I had the pleasure of meeting last August at the ABC Kids Expo) as a local cloth diaper lending foundation for Gloucester, MA. Within weeks of beginning their local service, GDGH’s Facebook page and email inbox were full of inquiries from parents across the country. To meet this need, Kristen and Emily decided to expand and accept applications from families throughout the United States. Over the last 10 months, Giving Diapers, Giving Hope has already managed to help over 70 families cloth diaper their babies.

Because Giving Diapers, Giving Hope expanded so rapidly to meet the needs of families they are still working to obtain enough funding to file for their 501 c3. A 501 c3 is needed to become a recognized non-profit and will further their ability to help lend free cloth diapers to families in need.

In addition to filing for the 501 c3 Giving Diapers, Giving Hope is in need of funds to purchase office supplies such as business cards and letterheads, packaging materials, and buy supplies needed to repair donated diapers that need them (like a few of my well loved bumGenius 3.0s). To make it happen a fundraiser campaign was planned by Kim of Dirty Diaper Laundry.

The Fundraiser involves two parts: the first is a kickoff Twitter Party. January 25 at 9 PM EST join @KimRosas, @GivingDiapers, and friends and tweet using the #GivingHOPE hashtag. There will be prizes given during the party but to be eligible you must RSVP on Kim’s website. Some prizes include gift certificates to Abby’s Lane and Kelly’s Closet, 6 Diaper Rite Pockets from Diaper Junction, 8 CJ’s BUTTer’s from Sweetbottoms Baby Boutique, a Prize Pack of all natural, vegan balms from “THE” Balm, a One Size Gro Via, Thirsties Duo Diaper, GroVia Magic Stick and GroVia disposable Biosoaker inserts from Jack Be Naturaland more! But this is just the TIP of the iceberg.On January 25 the Facebook Fundraising Campaign will also open. With over $1,700 worth of prizes you do not want to miss out! All prizes can be viewed easily on the Fundraiser Announcement post. There are prize packs from The NOW Family (ARV $124), Orange Diaper Co (ARV $100.00), Tushie Ties Tie on Prefolds ( ARV $90.00), a $100.00 Gift Certificate to Sweetbottoms Baby Boutique, a BabyKicks Prize Pack (ARV $78.00), an Oeko Popo Prize Pack (ARV $84.00), a “Try Cloth Diapers” Prize pack from Go Green Baby Shop (ARV $70), a GroVia and more Prize Pack from Jack Be Natural, an Accessory Prize Pack from Abby’s Lane (ARV $75.00), another Accessories Prize pack from Modern Cloth ($ARV $80.00), an Incredibum Package (ARV $100.00), “The” BALM! Package (ARV $75.00), a Thirsties package with 3 new DUO AIO’s and more (ARV $75.00), 2 bumGenius Freetimes donated by All About Cloth Diapers, and much, much much more! Whew! All of the prizes are listed on the Dirty Diaper Laundry Facebook Page and the contest will open first thing in the morning on January 25 and ends midnight on February 14. To enter just like the sponsor’s pages using the easy to use Rafflecopter widget. You don’t have to like every page but you must like the sponsor’s page to win their prize.

It should be noted that every sponsor you see listed has generously given a monetary donation to Giving Diapers, Giving Hope so please, please show them your appreciation and support! (Yes, I am a sponsor and I did donate financially from the money earned on this blog to this organization.)

How can you help? Just spread the word to all of your cloth diapering friends! Share the giveaway on your Facebook, Twitter, Message Boards, or by carrier pigeon to your buddy on a deserted island.

If you want to do more to help out a worthy cause you can, and you even get more entries into the giveaway! If you donate any amount, anything, you get 25 extra entries. Send a donation to givingdiapersgivinghope@gmail.com via Paypal then choose the Donation option in the giveaway. By donating any amount you increase your chances to win one of these amazing prizes!

I hope you will join me in supporting this organization I believe so much in. This Fundraiser will help them continue operating for the rest of the year.

Eco-Crafting Tutorial: How to Make a Wreath Using a Queen Sz. Sheet

Calley — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 12:20:46 +0000

Eco-Crafting Tutorial: How to Make a Wreath Using a Queen Size Sheet

Supplies: One wire wreath form (or any wreath form), one queen size sheet, one pair of scissors

Time: 1-2 hrs for a large wreath

You can reuse or upcycle with any fabric. I found the perfect color sheet at the local thrift store to match the color of my little girls room for only $3.00. There weren’t any stains on it but even if there were some minor staining you could still use it for this project. Solids or prints, both would work fine. If I had found a chocolate brown and ivory sheet that day I would probably have used all 3 and alternated the colors in the wreath. You can also use fabric scraps from old t-shirts or any fabric remnants that you have. Just be sure you have a LOT of scraps. I used the entire queen size sheet for a large wreath form. Total cost: Less than $5.00

Directions:

-Cut the fabric into equal sized strips. Our strips were approximately 1-1.5″ wide and 6-9″ long. Be sure to cut the strips to about the same size or you’ll end up with an uneven looking wreath.

-Tie each strip onto the wreath form with a simple knot. I only tied a single knot but a double knot would prevent them from coming undone later. It’s not a piece that will get handled a lot so a single knot is fine for my purposes.

-Continue tying strips to the wire wreath form working to fill in as much space as possible. The entire process took me a little more than an hour to complete (after the kids were in bed). It’s a good project to do while watching television of chatting with family and friends.

-Embellish. You can add any additional embellishments if you like. Painted wooden or cardboard lettering would be cute hanging in the middle of your wreath with a coordinating ribbon.

-Hang up and Enjoy! I used a simple over the door wreath hanger. You could even add a ribbon if you want it to hang lower.

For more eco-crafting tutorials and tips check out my archives where I completed this project using old t-shirts on a much smaller scale. Have you completed a project seen here? Share it with me on Facebook. I’d love to see your pictures!

My Personal Pledge (January)

Calley — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 17:00:44 +0000

A few days ago I challenged you to make a Pledge to Go Green in 2012. My first challenge was to set a goal for yourself and to write it down. I promised that I would come back and share my own goal with you, so here it goes…

My Green Pledge for January: To share more eco-tips with each of you on a regular basis. Don’t I already do this? My blogging habits have not been the healthiest and I often feel like my blog is messy and unorganized. Probably because that is my style and who I am. But I’m setting my own goal for January to become a more organized blogger and that begins with creating an editorial calendar! I have thought about this for over a year and I’m finally implementing it. Guess what? It doesn’t stop with writing it down either. I researched editorial calendars and I’ve printed one off – it’s sitting right in front of me! I even have January filled in with ideas and plans. I have so many ideas and plans that February is almost full too.

I found a great article by Angela England about How to Use Editorial Calendars Effectively in Blogging. It was complete with links to a downloadable Editorial Calendar for 2012 (by Blog Energizer).

Now to find the time to actually write everything I have on my calendar.

Did you make the Pledge to Go Green yet? Did you finish step 1? What is your goal and what are your plans to achieve your goal?

mabu baby eco diapers (WalMart Cloth Diapers)

Calley — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:52:28 +0000

Select WalMart stores now carry a line of cloth diapers called mabu baby.

The team at mabu baby was nice enough to send me a few of their products to review and test on Lil’ B. When the box came I was quite impressed with the contents and the different options that they have available. Most parents who will find the mabu baby line will probably stumble upon them at the actual store so looks and packaging is very important.

If I saw this packaging at the store I would probably stop and look. Read the box. Add it to my gift registry. And maybe even purchase a box to try out. They come sized similar to disposable diaper sizing (newborn, size 1, size 2, and size 3/4) so those are additional similarities to disposable diapers. The box even says, “goes on easy like a disposable.”

The Maxi Starter Kit included:

2 diaper outers with 2 snap-in pad holders
2 washable pads
2 disposable pads
5 liners

and the size range is for 15-40lbs. That’s actually a pretty good size range for someone who may have stumbled across these diapers at WalMart. It would certainly intrigue me to give them a try.

Honestly it’s not much different than stumbling across a package of gDiapers at your local natural food store. This system gives parents the option to try a hybrid diapering system with both a reusable option and a disposable option. What it offers you however is a more affordable option than gDiapers. Also – more people shop at WalMart than natural food stores. They certainly have the market but how will people respond to them once they get them home and how well do they work?

Let’s look at the diaper and the pieces one piece at a time:

The Maxi cover seen in the picture is for toddlers 15-40lb. It has a simple hook & loop closure that reminds me of the old GroBaby (the old version of GroVia) aplix. It’s a very fine aplix that attaches to a very soft section across the front. There is a small laundry tab that uses the same ultra soft fabric that goes along the front of the shell. The laundry tabs are smaller than the actual aplix. The shell is made of 100% recycled polyester and is lined with a 100% recycled polyester fleece that is very soft (backed with PUL). Along the inside of the front/back of the diaper the polyester outer material is used to create a flap that hides the snaps for the snap-in pad holder. My thoughts: I like the softness and the fine aplix but it’s not very strong. When washed I ended up with the dreaded diaper chain. The diaper doesn’t have a cross over closure either so if you have a small waisted baby you may need to go with a smaller size.

Aplix and laundry tabs.

Inside of the Maxi Cover.

Inside of Maxi Cover with Snap-In Pad Holder. You could easily reuse the outer shell and simply replace the snap-in pad holder and insert. However if the outer shell gets soiled or wet it’s fabric so you’ll need to wash and dry before you can use it again.

Snap-In Pad Holder with 3 snaps on the front piece. Simple to use, easy to attach, and the snaps are covered with an additional polyester layer so no snaps will touch your baby.

Snap-In Pad Holder has 2 snaps to secure it to the Maxi Cover in the back.

Washable cloth pad insert. Stay dry on one side and microfiber on the other. When folded to fit inside the cover you’ll have 4 microfiber layers and 2 stay dry layers. This was plenty of absorbency for our tot at night but an extreme heavy wetter may need one more insert.

Maxi cover with snap-in pad holder and washable pad in place. The insert was a little long but I was able to fold it over just fine inside the pad holder.

Disposable pad. Reminded me of a postpartum mama pad. Very absorbent but needed to be folded to fit my tot.

Flushable diaper liners. 5 samples included with the Maxi Starter Kit. Strong enough you could actually wash them once if you wanted to try to get 2 uses out of these.

A very poor photo of my tot modeling her mabu baby from behind. She’s 3yrs old and about 25lbs. There is plenty of room to grow in these diapers. I think the Size 2 would have fit her skinny booty better.

From the front.

What do I think about mabu baby? It’s a diaper and it works! It’s certainly nothing fancy and doesn’t have all the amazing features of my favorite diapers…

…but I don’t think it’s suppose to either! The customer of these diapers are hopefully going to be the parents who stumble upon them at WalMart who have never seen a modern cloth diaper. They may have only seen those horrible Gerber prefolds and flats that now reside at most WalMart stores and the plastic pants that accompany those. If this is the customer who finds mabu baby and gives them a try I think it’s a good start.

5 Reasons I think mabu baby diapers are good for the cloth diapering community:

More parents have the opportunity to to learn about modern cloth diapers.
More babies will be protected from the nasty chemicals of disposable diapers.
More families will have extra income to feed, cloth, and house their children and themselves.
Less disposable diapers will end up in our landfills.
More families will come online to research cloth diapers…and hopefully finding out just how large the cloth diapering community really is!

Are you one of those families who found cloth diapers because of mabu baby diapers? I would love to hear your experiences.
