Our birds need Insulin!

I walked in the kitchen the other day to see this...

Brendan and Jack looked up at me and proudly told me that had made a bird feeder! Umm...Sprinkles... I believe birds eat seeds?!

They both were puzzled. I think even Brendan had forgotten that birds eat seeds... not sprinkles.
Jack said, "mommy, they'll like sprinkles better".

So, they went searching for the perfect tree...

And hung it on a limb... a very low limb..

Jack was so excited...

I am thinking maybe we should have hung an Insulin shot beside it... although I did notice the next day the whole cone was gone. I am thinking a dog came by and ate the thing.

I think I will pick up some seeds next time I go to the store! And encourage a higher limb!

Diaper Talk

OK, So you are probably tired of my diaper post, but I don't care ;) I have come upon a wonderful diaper that I wanted to share with you...
diapera
They are my new Bum Genius diapers that I have been trying out a few weeks. All I can say... I am in love. These diapers put even Huggies Supreme to shame. They are so soft, super absorbant, and simple to clean. While I still love GDiapers, these are my new favorites!
They are one size, which means they grow with your baby.
The snaps adjust the size. This is on the smallest setting...
diaperb
The inside, super soft fleece...

While I do exclusively cloth diaper. I came upon a killer deal on some organic disposables. I got these for $1.50 a pack!
diaperd
When I pulled them out, they looked super cheaply made...

However, after trying them out, I found they work great!! Really, once again, better than Huggies Supreme.
I am a HUGE believer that organic or cloth diapering is soooo much better. Just google diaper chemicals and you will be shocked at the ingredient list.

Hope this cleared up some diapering questions, for diapering friends ;)

Have I mentioned...

I love this man!
DSC_5269
Seriously...
He is like the energizer bunny! He never stops working, cleaning, building fires, chasing kids, cooking, waking early, grocery shopping, chopping wood, making business calls, tending to my every need, and... um a lot more. He makes me tired just watching him!

I am starting to feel bad... he runs circles around me!

Ladies keep you hands off him, He's mine!
