Happy in her Nappy

My phone rang. I'm out. But, lovely postman was kind enough to say he'll leave the package for me, and it would be there when I got home. Hurray. Overhearing our friendly exchange, Paul asks with a hint of eye rolling, "does the post man know your PHONE NUMBER now? Em, yes. but only cause I gave it to him.

The excitement. I have been waiting for this package for ages. These four items have been top of our list of 'wants' since we saw a drawing of them at the end of the summer. Finally they are here, and they are GORGEOUS! Bright colours, cheerful designs and one of our favourite brands.

These items are.....cloth nappies. Yes, four things that will be pooped and peed in, but will look adorable in the meantime. We had even ordered babylegs and tshirts to match in preparation. Bees, rainbows and toadstools.

Im not really sure what happened to me. Somewhere between having to finally give up on my always-worn high heels at about 8 months pregnant and this past weekend, tearing the place apart to find my teal patent winter boots with the 5 inch heel, a little bit of earth mother hippiness crept out.

Nothing to do with saving the planet, although, hey, thats always a bonus. I spent a good 8 months laughing, even scoffing at all the assumed hard work some of my friends were giving themselves, by using reusable nappies. But then, I saw some of the patterns. I heard whispers of limited edition prints. There were mentions of collections. I did a little research. And bought ALL THE NAPPIES. Well, not quite, but, Im getting there.

Tots Bots are my favourite, and twice they have teamed up with Frugi to bring out a selection of nappies, and the prints are really cute. They have clothes to match, for those of us who love a bit of coordinating and they are super easy to use and wash.

These are the the babylegs we had bought weeks in advance of the nappies arriving! They are from Mama runs with scissors

In the midst of all the bees and rainbows and foxes with flowers, Tots Bots announced they were releasing a new Christmas limited edition nappy. Hot footing it over to my favourite Irish nappy site Anniepooh to order,  the new gingerbread family print will be arriving care of our friendly postman late next week.
