Getting a Little Crunchy

Wednesday, we tried out our cloth diapers.  I think I need to buy a few more before really making a decision on them.  I guess that is a down side.  Maybe after my covers get here, which will hopefully be Saturday, we can have enough for a day with the prefolds and flats that we already have and this will give me a better idea of if I like them.  The green diaper, that Maya is modeling below, is apparently a stuffable all in one diaper rather than the pocket diaper as I originally thought.  It can be worn as is or stuffed with an extra absorbent layer for overnight.  She wore it with the extra absorbent layer so it looks a little puffy.  She christened it shortly after I put it on but we had no leaks.  Thats more than I can say about the disposable diapers she was wearing this morning.  Of the 3 dirty diapers I changed before noon today, two leaked onto her clothes and one of those went all the way through to our sheets.  Have I mentioned that I'm not impressed with size 1 diapers.  We've had nothing but leaks since she grew out of the newborn size.  We've tried a number of brands all with similar results.  But enough about diapers.

Maya and I had a decent day today.  In the future we will have to work on where she naps but for now we are working on just getting her to nap.  Two out of her three naps today were pretty painless and she went to sleep easily tonight.  She and I took a spin with her new stroller this afternoon.  She fell asleep after a couple of blocks so I think she approves.  The nice thing about the travel system is that she was asleep and strapped into her carseat.  We decided to take advantage of this to pick up Derek and exchange a few things while we were out.  The down side of the stroller is that it is large and didn't really fit well down the aisles of the store we visited.  The more difficult nap today was saved by the wrap.  I plopped her in while I made lunch and she was out of it shortly thereafter.  Between the wrap and cloth diapers I might be getting a little crunchy.

Someone suggested that the recent sleep trouble might be caused by teething.  I don't think this is the case.  And I hope it's not.  I'm not ready for teeth.  She's not really showing any signs of teething.  I think she's just too curious for her own good.
