I cannot get enough of this brand people! They are so ahead of the game and always right in line with what is hot and hilarious. Wry Baby’s newest line is their Toddler Tee’s.
Wry Baby has been such a fun and popular brand that parents like me have been so bummed when our children outgrew their Wry Baby snapsuits. Growing is a good thing, but keeping my kids in super funny clothing shouldn’t stop just because they ate their Wheaties (….do people still eat Wheaties?).
There are 6 tee’s that are now available. 3 in Simple Fit and 3 in Fancy Fit.
No matter the tee you choose, you will get compliments left and right when you are out and about. Every time I have my daughter wear one of her Wry Baby toddler tee shirts out we get at least 1 compliment. They fit so well and are just charming.
Wry Baby’s toddler shirts are 100% cotton and are made with the same attention to quality that made their baby clothing so special. Wry Baby’s Fancy Fit toddler t-shirts feature a slim silhouette and cute little cap sleeves. Wry Baby’s Simple Fit toddler t-shirts rock a topstitch ribbed collar and a roomy cut for roughhousing.
Warning: Seeing your child wear this tee-shirt may cause you to buy your child a pony
These tee’s are just perfect for playing outside, running a muck around the neighborhood and remind you to always call your mother (…seriously, you should call your mother and say hello today).
With back to school season here (boo! we want summer!) its time to sack up and grab a new backpack. My daughter is not yet 3 years old, but that doesn’t change the fact that she wants to wear a backpack and pretend to go to school. I have tried buying her a few different small backpacks. All of them fall off her tiny toddler frame. That was until Wry Baby made their toddler sized backpack. Now my little imagination-machine can wear a backpack, full of very important items like 32 necklaces and a plastic cupcake, while we go out shopping for them day. But in all seriousness, it is important to help your child engage in imaginative play, and that would include playing school. By providing her with a backpack she can wear, that can stay up on her shoulders and not slide off, builds her confidence. I want her to be confident and know that I want to help her be the person who she wants to be, and if that is pretending to be a preschooler then darn it, I want to help. Thank you Wry Baby, honestly, for building my toddlers confidence as she wears her own big kid backpack.
This is a 18 month old who is 21 lbs. Super excited to be a big kid too!
What other backpack can stay on a 1 yr olds tiny frame, let alone be functional and stylish?! Do yourself a favor and grab one of these backpacks today.

I reviewed Thirsties AIO Hook and Loop style cloth diaper.
I own a few brands of AIO cloth diapers. AIO’s are always my go to nap diaper. They are typically absorbent enough for naps but not quite absorbent enough for overnights. My son is 18 months and he pees a normal amount while sleeping. He naps are 1-3 hours long one time per day. At night he sleeps 10-11 hours. I always try all the diapers I receive at least 1 time overnight. I call it the “overnight test” (very catchy name huh?).
This Thirsties Baby AIO diaper….PASSED! With flying colors! I am SO excited that I have an AIO diaper I can use overnights! This will make overnights at his grandparents house so much easier. They are not into the whole “cloth thing” as they call it. Which is fine, I know that cloth is not for everyone. Having an AIO option to offer them may make the overnight diaper experience with them a tad easier and maybe they will use cloth more when they watch him.
My favorite feature: The insert goes from top to butt!
You read that right. Every other AIO I have seen has the insert start at the butt/back side and fall forward towards the front/belly side. The insert moves around and gets curled up in there a lot of the time. With Thirsties design this doesn’t happen! It lays where you want it to; in the middle and flat. I think this is a mind blowing and such a great feature. I seriously have no clue why anyone would make the inserts go the other way now. You need to grab one of these diapers and try it out for yourself.
This Thirsties AIO has the best hook and loop laundry set up I have seen. They are strong. So strong my son has a super hard time undoing them. When he is just in a diaper and tee-shirt (hot summers ya know) he tries to take off his diaper sometimes. The velcro is very secure and it is almost (but not totally) impossible for him to remove this diaper.

When I received my Momo Baby shoes I was so happy to see how well they were packaged and shipped.

My children are outdoors kids. They want to be outside from the moment they wake up until I make them go to sleep. They run, jump, climb, tackle & explore all day long. This is what we want our growing children to do. They need to be curious and learn through play. Momo Baby shoes are so comfortable and durable that my children were able to play for hours and never complained about their feet! A lot of children’s shoes now-a-days are made very poorly. They cut into a child’s foot, causing marks, blisters and even cuts which bleed. This totally bums me out when I see the marks left on my child’s feet after we come inside. After roughhousing for about 3 hours this afternoon out in the pasture, and doing laps around the horse barn, both children’s feet were smooth as can be. No cuts or marks here! I am so glad we found a reliable shoe brand that we can count on. I highly suggest checking out Momo Baby and grabbing a few pairs of shoes today.

Simba & Mama is a new cloth diaper company run and owned by Mama Fifi. Fifi was living in Bali when she was pregnant with her daughter, Simba. She found out that all the trash, including disposable diapers, were simply burnt due to lack of space. This really bothers Fifi (and myself), so she decided to do something about it.
Simba & Mama was created to help not only babies like my own, but also the people of Bali. Cloth diapers are not very prevalent in Bali. Mama Fifi has chosen that for every Simba & Mama diaper that is purchased she will donate 1 diaper to a family in Bali. This will not only help cut down on the air pollution in Bali as well as the earth’s atmosphere, but it will help educate the mothers of Bali that there is another choice other than disposables.
What Does Simba & Mama Sell
There are a lot of cloth diapers on the market, so what makes Simba & Mama special?
Buy a Diaper, Give a Diaper
You help reduce the earths air pollution by helping a mother in Bali receive a cloth diaper.
When I first opened this diaper I was so excited to see how it was packaged. It was neatly folded up and inside the wet bag is comes with. Not only do you get 2 awesome microfiber inserts, but you get a bonus fleece reusable liner. These are so great for any child. No one likes to feel wet after they go potty. These fleece liners are like little cloth super absorbers. They pull the urine away from your babies skin quickly so they can then move back into the microfiber insert. This gives you baby a stay dry feeling. I use fleece liners during naps and for bedtime. Now that my son is 18 months I don’t want to have to change his diaper in the middle of the night, but I don’t want him to be uncomfortable either. These fleece liners help him stay dry and help to avoid diaper rash!
the main microfiber insert has 2 snap positions to allow for a more versatile product
I love this diaper in so many ways, but I am so excited that I have found another overnight diaper! Not all of my cloth diapers are overnight options. My son has skinny legs and we need to have a special insert combo inside a diaper as well as tight leg gussets to pass the overnight test. The Little Lion Cub Diaper passes this test! I am so excited about this!
Diapers designed by rocket scientists….seriously though, they are.
What really appeals to me about Lil Helper diapers is how relatable of a company they are. Lil Helpers is owned and run by two guys (Mohammad and Nader) who met in college and are quiet literally rocket scientists (that’s aerospace engineering to be more specific). My husband is a scientist (biologist something about DNA) who now works in telecom; a completely different field. What they have in common is this: the brains to make me feel like Penny from Big Bang Theory and the ability to make me laugh like a little school girl. Mohammad & Nader are dedicated, intelligent men who make parents life easier with their super designed cloth diapers and accessories.
Lil Helper diapers has a strong and honest mission. These are a few from their list of statements:
Offer quality products at reasonable, affordable prices.
Provide great customer service throughout the life-cycle of the product.
Refuse to sell or endorse anything that we are not comfortable using on our own children. Period.
They also do NOT claim to help you or your child lose weight or that their diapers will improve your sex life. But you shouldn’t worry about that. There are plenty of other ways that you can improve this area of your life, like looking at how anal beads, butt plugs, and other types of sex toys can help to give you the sexual pleasure that you so desire. However, it would not be wise to restrict yourself to sex toys only. If you want to spice up your sex life with the help of a strapless dildo, for example, then keeping the flame within you burning is definitely something that you should consider. Moreover, trying new things never hurt anybody, did it? That said, you can try a new sensation like prostate milking, which is known to be a simple prostate massage aimed at mindblowing orgasms. In a nutshell, this is a massage of the male G-spot for sexual stimulation. If you haven’t heard about this yet, then this might be the time to read about this erotic practice. For that, interested individuals can consider visiting websites like Loveplugs. So, it seems that whilst these diapers can help you in other ways, using them to improve your sex life definitely isn’t one of them. With that being said, you can click here & scroll down to read more 😉
Why Lil Helpers
1) There are tons and tons of different companies that make and sell cloth diapers. Why choose Lil Helpers? For starters they are Do Gooders. What I mean by this is that they donate 1 diaper for every 3 diapers bought to a child in North American who is in need. They lovingly call this program Baby Do Good (you can read more about this through the link).
2) They have 24 hour customer service (who can honestly say that?!)
3) They have the God Forbid Guarantee. I have never heard of this but I think its one of the most kind and loving company policies ever created. God forbid that something untoward were to happen during or after you birth and you are no longer able to use your cloth diapers from Lil Helper – They will fully refund your entire purchase. This is a policy I can back up 100% with Mama’s stamp of approval!
Plus there are many, many other reasons why they kick butt and you need their diapers.
When I received my diapers I was so excited to try both the bamboo and charcoal inserts! I have heard about charcoal inserts a few times in different Facebook cloth diaper groups, but had yet to know anyone personally who used them. I was super excited to find out that you only have to wash them one to prep! They are fully ready to go as far as absorbency power. You should wash them 1 time before use just because, ya know, stuff gets dirty in transport.
The inserts have a 4 layer design. The outermost shell is charcoal cloth and the 2 inside layers are micro terry cloth. This allows for super quick absorbency and super hold.
Charcoal provides:
Stay dry features
Hypoallergenic
Naturally deodorizing
Anti-bacterial
Dark in color (wont show those blueberry poop stains!)
I am super pumped about these liners. They are super soft, easy to wash and super absorbent. Click here to read more about charcoal inserts.
Bamboo Inserts
I have used some bamboo inserts from other brands, but nothing is like the bamboo inserts from Lil Helper. Other bamboo inserts are just that, bamboo. What makes the Lil Helper bamboo insert unique is that it is stuffed inside with 2 layers of micro terry cloth. This allows for a super luxuriously soft outer shell with the added bonus of super absorbency!
Bamboo Insert
Bamboo is highly sustainable (get more yield in a crop when compared to cotton….but a lot – this means it is better for the earth)
More absorbent than cotton
Softer and smoother than cotton
Lil Helper Diapers
I was so excited about the inserts I did not really inspect the diapers themselves when I first received them. It was not until I first put them on my skinny legged son that I saw a super perfect feature, a leg hip snap! The hip snaps are the snaps at the top of a diaper, by the hips/belly button. Lil Helpers went the extra mile and put a second, bottom row (closer to the leg hole) on their diapers. This is super crazy awesome for skinny legged kids. Some diapers cannot and will not get tight enough to contain their contents on skinny legged kids. You will get leakage through the leg holes. Not with Lil Helpers! Because of the 2nd row I can get my diaper around my sons gut (you know, the toddler beer gut) but still get it tight on his tiny legs!
The other fabulous design of Lil Helper diapers is that the inserts are interchangeable with the diapers. You can buy a bamboo and charcoal insert and the just snap in whatever shell you choose. Mix and match galore!
Their diapers are All-In-2’s. This means you snap the inside in and the shell can be used 2 or 3 times before wash (if not soiled). This makes trips out so much easier. Why lug all those AIO’s when you can grab 2 inserts and 1 shell from Lil Helper? Makes the diaper bag easier to manage and the wet bag less heavy.
The Lil Helper shell diaper is also lined. All other AI2’s I have seen are just PUL and snaps. Lil Helper diapers have a soft inside that the inserts snap too. This makes the diaper way more cozy. I would rather have plush material then PUL rubbing my hips as I walk around, wouldn’t you?

Bamboo Stay Dry Liners
These are seriously the coolest accessory I have encountered in my cloth diaper experience.
These sleek and soft liners can go into any diaper, yes any diaper. They are made of 50% bamboo viscose and 50% polyester mesh. This allows them to be super absorbent and quickly wick away moisture (which is how you avoid a diaper rash). These little liners have a super power…they make changing poopy diapers easy. Yes I just wrote easy. The solids will slide right off the material! Making all poops plop-able! No one likes trying to get that fruit based toddler poop off a diaper. Its the least glamour part of cloth diapering. These liners make changing those poopy diaper super fast and easy.
Lots of companies offer flushable or disposable liners. Having a septic system there is no such thing as a safe to flush liner. I refuse to try and then end up with a clogged toilet or worse a broken aerator. Lil Helper stay dry liners are reusable so they will save us money and help the environment. Head over and grab a few packs now! Click here to read more about them.
With each order from Lil Helpers you get a little secret consumable surprise. I will not disclouse what said secret may be. You will just need to place an order to find out! Click here to check out their website.

Best Bottom Diapers is a company created and owned by a husband and wife team. The company cares so much about helping protect the environment that they even print their packaging on recycled/recyclable paper with soy based ink. They have chosen as many USA-made materials as possible. They strive to keep the price affordable for all families.
Best Bottom Diapers uses a Full Cycle System which meets all your diapering needs from child birth through potty training
at a minimum cost to you.
About Best Bottoms All-in-2 Diaper
How to use a Best Bottoms Diaper:
Adjust front snaps to achieve the size needed.
Snap insert into diaper.
Put diaper on baby and go!
When baby needs a diaper change snap out soiled insert and snap clean one in.
Put diaper on baby and go AGAIN. The Best Bottom shell is wipe-able and can be used multiple times before washing but you may want to air dry between uses but it is not necessary.
To have a full stock of Best Bottom Diapers you will need 8-10 shells and 18-24 inserts.
The pro’s of using Best Bottom Diapers:
Fast drying
Easy to Use
Very absorbent
Inexpensive
I find that AI2’s like Best Bottoms are perfect for day trips and running errands. AIO’s can be bulky when you need 3 or 4 diapers for a day out running errands. I love using AI2’s for days like these. Grab 2 covers and a hand full of inserts and I have a 6 to 8 hour supply of diapers with very little space. Having 2 children under 3 I try to have the smallest possible diaper bag I can. I need my arms for grabbing running children and juggling the items I am trying to buy, not a bulky diaper bag!
We recommend washing every 2-3 days. We have found that the Best Bottom system washes beautifully as it takes up less space in your washing machine allowing more room for agitation getting your diapers super clean.
Remove solids
Reuse the shell until soiled or wash day. Separate shell from insert before washing. Fasten laundry tabs (if applicable).
Do a cold rinse or cold quick wash (no detergent).
Warm or hot (not sanitary) full wash with additive-free detergent (use detergent’s recommended amount). Use the most amount of water possible. *Tip! Throw a soaking wet towel into your washing machine to “trick” it into using more water.
Extra rinse.
Inserts can be tumble dried. Shells should be line dried or tumble dried on low heat. You should read the wasdroger informatie before putting them in, just to make sure you havr them on the right setting. They dry pretty quickly and the babies always love it when they come out nice and toasty. *No fabric softeners, dryer sheets or additives such as bleach, vinegar, baking soda, washing soda, borax, oxyclean, etc. should be used.
**Rash creams can only be used with a barrier between baby and the diaper.
***We know that additive-free detergents work and are least likely to cause any problems with your diapers. However, we have done extensive testing with Tide Original and know that it works with our diapers.
The Best Bottom system features a double gusset leg hole. This means that their is an extra layer of protection around the leg holes to have avoid unwanted leaks. Having a child with skinny legs this can be a make or break diaper deal in my household.
There are 3 levels of adjustable rise. If you have a newborn or very young child you will want to connect to the lowest set of buttons, making the diaper shorter and give your child a correct fit. As the child grows and gets taller/longer you will adjust the rise snaps accordingly. This diaper has the ability to have 2 inserts being used at the same time. If you are using both inserts (for overnight or longer car drives) you may want to take into consideration which rises you are snapping to. I use a higher choice when it is stuffed more. This is how my child was created. Each child’s body is unique and you will need to try a few different options and see which works best for you.
I love how thick and absorbent the inserts are. They are very soft with the fleece outer layer. The Stay Dry inserts (which are shown here) have 4 layers of super thirsty microfiber. They really suck up and pull away liquids fast. The fleece I have mentioned allows the liquids to be pulled away fast and give your child a feeling of being dry.
The doubler or overnight insert has snaps on both sides. This allows you to snap it onto the shell and then snap the normal insert right on top of it, giving the diaper a double insert. This is perfect for overnight diapers, long car rides or instances which you know your child will need the extra absorbency.

I love that Green Mountain Diapers has a crazy large section. They carry fun and unique diapers and products. The staff is always prompt and helpful. For these reasons I would suggest buying your Smart Bottom (and other cloth diaper products) from Green Mountain Diapers.
Mama’s Experience
Smart Bottoms Smart One Diaper
“Smart Bottoms Smart One is a one size fits most adjustable all-in-one organic cotton interior diaper made in USA. It is a true all-in-one (nothing to stuff or insert) with organic cotton interior.” – Green Mountain Diapers
I have tried a few different all-in-one diapers. What really makes this one special is the inside, because it is truly an all-in-one. The inside of this diaper has a super long insert that is permanently attached. It folds down 2 times to create a double liner like environment.
This diaper is not only super absorbent (he is able to wear it at nap time without leakage) but it’s super cute! Foxes…really…be still my heart.
This diaper washes very well. I prefer to drip dry my diapers. I let it air dry until completely dry. Then I place them into the dryer for 5 to 8 minutes to soften them. When you drip dry/line dry a diaper they will be hard. In order to get that fluffy/soft feeling back I place them on delicate for a few minutes in the dryer. This helps a ton. Be sure to NEVER pull on the elastic once removed from the dryer. Doing that will stretch the elastic and cause the leg holes to not be as tight. This would ruin a diaper for us. The tight legs are a huge part of leakage for my son in some diapers. I love this diaper for its great leg holes.
I really suggest this diaper to anyone. It its structured really well and if it cant nicely fit my little guy then I am sure it will fit your child as well. Head over to Green Mountain Diapers to check out their selection of Smart Bottoms diapers.

What is the Imagine Advocacy Program?
“The Imagine Advocacy Program is designed for YOU! Smart, passionate parents who want to see cloth diapers on every baby’s bottom and who want to earn FREE products too! It’s all about friends talking to friends — spreading knowledge about cloth diapers and showing just how EASY they are! You’ve done the research, now you can make it easy for them to switch.” –Imagine Baby Products Website
What this basically means is they offer a host-a-party like sales opportunity. As a consultant you can have your friends buy diapers through you like any other party-based organization (think Avon). You do not have to have any product on hand; all sales are virtual. You get to redeem your credit in free diapers or percents off a purchase. There is a support system in place to help you along and get started and stay ahead of your game. You don’t have to touch product or money. Orders are placed straight threw their website and orders are shipped directly to the buyer. It is a win/win!
There are no minimums on orders with Imagine Baby Products. All orders (for the continental US) have a flat rate of $4. I think this is just amazing!
Imagine also cares deeply about the environment and occasionally ships their packages in slightly “used” boxes. Such a great idea! Anything to cut back on our waste. Even when placed in a recycling bin that item is not guaranteed to be broken down and recycled. By reusing we can surely help keep our waste down.
**No bleach, softeners, homemade detergents, or diaper creams without a barrier.
Mama’s Experience
I really like Imagine AIO diapers, like a lot. I can trust them for overnights, which is not something I can say about every diaper. If you have read some of my other cloth diaper reviews you know how my son has very skinny legs. He is just a petite little man. Most diapers leak out of the leg gussets, but not Imagine Baby Product diapers! I’m just thrilled that we have another overnight diaper to use and to suggest for other skinny legged babies.
The AIO diaper has a super luxurious insert. The fleece is a dream. So soft I want to cuddle up to it. I got too antsy and did not fully pre-wash my diaper the recommended times (I know I know) and the first 2 times we used it the fleece kept getting stuck to his man parts LOL! It was not an issue and caused NO irritation but I do recommend that you pre-wash your diaper according to packaging instructions to avoid the surprise fleece on your child’s skin. Just a friendly I-am-a-human-too heads up mistake.
I really like the hook and loop velcro and laundry tabs. It is really easy to pull opened with one hand when changing a diaper but strong enough to stay on your child. The laundry tabs are placed in a great spot and very reliable in the wash to stay connected. I hate when a hook and loop style diaper detaches during the wash and then sticks to a nice insert or diaper. I don’t worry about that at all the Imagine Baby Product diapers.
The insert is really smartly designed because it has two snaps instead of one. This makes the insert have a smaller chance of shifting inside the diaper while in use. I really think that feature makes Imagine Baby Products diaper stand out.

Knock Nanny is a Utah based business that started because they agree that we need to let sleeping babies sleep! Getting a child to finally fall asleep, only then to be woken by a pounding on your door or a loud DING DONG of the doorbell makes any parent cringe. You know we have practically all tried taping a piece of paper by the doorbell, but they always fall off or become unreadable from rain.
Knock Nanny knew they had to do something about this problem, and I cannot thank them enough!
What is The Knock Nanny?
The Knock Nanny is a simple plastic cover you install over your door bell. You can notify your visitors with 27 different message decals, or even design your own.
The beauty of this product is there is no drilling into your place of residence! You are able to bring it with you to your next home without any damage to the property.
To see more visuals of installation (along with videos) please click here.
There are so many options I had such a hard time picking one for my front door!
They even offer options like ‘No Soliciting’ and ‘Do Not Disturb’ for those without children but who want to enjoy the silence.
Installation
There are several ways the Knock Nanny can be installed. There is the standard method or the non-standard method. If neither of these methods are able to work with your doorbell/house there is still a way! The adhesive strips which come with the Knock Nanny are pretty spectacular. They can be used on an ‘install anywhere’ situation. Simply place the strips on the back of the knock nanny where it points towards the house. The strips are wider then the edge of the Knock Nanny, this is not a problem. It will stick to any surface. These strips are a very high adhesive strength and leave no residue left behind after removal. This allows for those special circumstance installments.
When I received my Knock Nanny the first thing I wanted to do was look at the stickers! There are so many unique designs to choose from. I think it’s such a great idea to have such versatile options with their product. You can choose adorable sleeping baby stickers, a request to only knock, one asking to leave packages at the door, even ones that just say No Soliciting or Do Not Disturb. This product is not just for parents with small children. Young adults trying to study for exams, average adults who don’t want to be disturbed or elderly people who may not feel up to walking to the door; all different types of people will benefit from having a Knock Nanny installed.
The Knock Nanny itself is made of a high quality material (the same stuff used in Lego’s) and it keeps both flexibility and form in extreme low and high temperatures. This is a super important feature. Living in Ohio we get well into the negative 20’s during the winter. Having this outside when those temperatures hit, I will have no worries about my Knock Nanny. The stickers are a super high quality, fade resistant and water resistant. Take that post it note signs!
Installation was a breeze! I couldn’t believe how simple it was to slide over the doorbell. I applied the double sided sticker to both sides of the doorbell. I slid the Knock Nanny onto the doorbell and pushed back. It felt super secure even though it was very smooth to install.
The message decals were easy to remove as well. Here I will show you two different decals. It peeled off clean and I was able to place the first decal back on the sheet.
The Knock Nanny really is a perfect product for anyone

The little giraffe known to consumers as Sophie was born in 1961. At that time the only animal toys for babies and children were farm or pet animals. Monsieur Rampeau who was an expert in transforming latex from the HEVEA tree using the rotational molding of rubber as a toy-making concept, came up with the idea of designing a giraffe.
She went into production on May 25th, 1961 and she looks the same today as she did then.
She is made from 100% natural rubber derived from the latex of the Hevea tree
“Vulli, a company based in Rumilly in the Haute-Savoie Region of France, has continued to keep the jealously-guarded secret of how this wonder toy is made. Sophie is still “traditionally” produced to this day, a process that involves more than 14 manual operations.” –Sophie the Giraffe Website
Stimulating the Five Senses
Sophie the Giraffe – Chewing Bandana
Bandana’s are so in right now. They are the cute accessory we love to have our infants sport. Drooling and babies is like peanut butter and jelly…they just go together. If you are going to put a bib on your child because of drooling then you should know that all the drooling is most likely due to teething. When both of my children are teething their sinus cavities start going crazy. They become snotty little drool machines. The concept of putting a teether on the bandana is just so smart! The two just go together…like peanut butter and jelly!
This bandana come in a boy and a girl version (blue or pink). I really think either color looks great on either gender. They are stylish, functional and super fun.
They have 2 snaps to adjust the fit based on your child’s size.
These are now available for $17.18. Click here to see it on their website.
Sophie the Giraffe – So’pure Teether
These teethers are just like the original Sophie the Giraffe, only with additional material for a small child to hold on to and to chew on. The multi textured surface gives the child more stimulation then the original Sophie. These are great for early teethers.
These are now available for $17.74. Click here to see it on their website.
