why yes..it's another cloth diaper giveaway!

here it is yet another giveaway!! whoo hooo. get all excited. do the happy cloth diaper dance. wait?! is there a happy cloth diaper dance? i know i have a happy diaper dance when i get one in the mail. so yes. there is. i may be the only one dancing...but hey...who cares! :0)




so we've been cloth diapering three in diapers for about five months or so. until this past week i had not tried a one size diaper. i know can you believe it!?




i was so excited to find smarti pants diapers!! they are fabulous. and one size. and they sent me TWO diapers to review. in two very cute gender neutral colors of course.




first off. the prices on these dipes are great. you can buy three for only 36.95!! that's a great price for a one size dipe. you can get girls, boys or gender neutral packs. or white. but hey why get white when you can get colors!?! :0)










there's the diaper. i will say at the smallest setting it seems 'big' for a newborn baby. but because i don't have a newborn i can't test that theory. lord willing we'll have another newborn and i can try it out.


i used this diaper on the smallest setting for dustin though. and it fit him fine. he's like i said in my other post 18ish pounds. i try the dipes on him first because he's my biggest wetter. figured that's the best way to try it out!!


one thing unique about this dipe is that you don't HAVE to remove the inserts. the dipe is made with like a 'tunnel' you put the inserts in. open on both ends. and then in the wash they come out. what a brilliant idea. or rather 'smart' idea. :0) which is probably why the call it a smart sleeve huh? :0) lol.


i will also say i was hesitant about the open ends on both ends. i figured it would leak. guess what. it didn't. not for dustin at all. and fyi: he was in the diaper at least three hours. so there was an opportunity to leak. :0) the snaps are also super nice. and stay snapped. actually they're kind of tough to pull open. which is a good thing in my book. because my caitlyn LOVES to de-diaper herself!!


i must say i am a one size diaper lover now. at first i thought it'd be hard, having three in diapers and always switching the snaps and what not. but really. it's not a big deal at all. so i'll continue to use the dipes i have and rotate the one sizers between the three of them. which i am hoping will be soon two. breigh is three on sunday. time to hit the potty. at least i'm hoping.


and i mentioned this in my other giveaway, but because breigh was the only one using these, and i'm trying to de-stash, i have 16 contour kissaluvs in the larger size if anyone is interested let me know. :0) i like to give blogging buddies first dibs and a good deal. :0)


the smarti pants one size diapers are great. i will plan on buying some soon. because i am too in love with this diaper. oh the love keeps growing for my kiddos and their fluffy bums! my wildtree parties have taken off very successfully and i'm sure my profits will be either spent at rummage sales or buying cloth diapers. lol.



so you want one too don't you!?! i thought so. so here are the rules my friends.



1. required of you is this: visit the smarti pants site and tell me what color you'd pick for YOUR free diaper. don't they just have the cutest names for the colors!?!



2. follow me and get another entry. woot woot.



3. follow me on twitter (@amandap22) and tweet the giveaway for yet ANOTHER entry. woot woot woot.



4. blog about this super rockin smarti giveaway and get yet another entry. woot woot woot woot.



isn't that just SO fun!?! thought so.



okay. the giveaway will run til JUNE 19th at MIDNIGHT my time...which is CST in case you wanted to know. i don't have my own time zone or anything. the winner will be announced the 20th. the winner will have 48 hours to get back to me. so you best be sure you have an email attached to your blogger account. or leave it with your comment. because i'd be so sad if i had to repick another winner!



and if you have not entered my other cloth diaper giveaway. what are you waiting for!? go do it. :0)
