[hellomommy003]

[TheGraceDiaries]

@hellomommy003

:) Thanks, i think so too 

[dw9559]

Lacey is SO cute!!! I was just dying watching her! I hope my baby comes out just like that!!! Question--do you use a special detergent with your cloth nappies?

[babybuchug]

I love watching Lacey over and over in this video. She is sooooo precious!!! Whenever I don't feel well, I watch this video and Lacey makes me smile at how cute she is! :) I am looking forward to giving birth to our baby girl, anytime now :)

[TheGraceDiaries]

@babybuchug

that is so nice to hear, thanks, she is so adorable, always wanting to be by my side.

[alifeofworship]

I like the way you showed to fold the wipes! I watch the jaydenmommy videos but I didn't see the one about cloth wipes, thanks for sharing that :)

[TheGraceDiaries]

@alifeofworship No worries :)

[LittleMrsMommy]

Hahaha Lacey is so cute!

Great informative video :)

[Lovesenduringpromise]

Great video, I don't cloth diaper but I'd love to. I'm looking into it and definetly lean towards that route!

[vancaner]

I LOVED HOW LACEY KEPT HELPING SO CUTE .....LOL

[westy1238]

Great informative video Grace. Quick question, what is your system for washing cloth nappies (i.e. do u soak them, if so what in? do you put them through the wash twice?). Any additional information on this would be fantastic. Thanks.

[TheGraceDiaries]

@westy1238

I could do a video on my wash routine if you like? I don't soak them, i dry pail them but i do wash everyday or every second day. when i go to wash them i put them on a cold rinse cycle then a warm-hot long wash cycle with half the recommended amount of detergent. i line dry unless its winter and then i warm dry in the dryer.

[westy1238]

@TheGraceDiaries i would much appreciate a video on your cloth nappy routine, when you get time! :)

[amishhorse]

OMG!!! How SWEET is she with her little pigtails!!! I love the way I can hear her "accent" when she says "HEL-LO"!

[cavcut01]

Lacey is Gorgeous Grace!!! :) I love the wipes idea and how you folded them is awesome! I know you got this idea from someone else but to see it in practise is awesome and its practical rather than buying wipes all the time (the disposable kind)

[chatabox0girl]

I love the way Lacey talks. It is so cute! And I didn't realise the wipes were so cheap. I am actually considering going and getting some... We go through wipes so fast. Especially when Peter changes the nappies lol. How do you wash them? Do you rinse or soak before you put them in the wash?

[TheGraceDiaries]

@chatabox0girl If you are just washing wipes, I would put them in a bucket of water and at the end of the day or two days, wash them. Did that make sense?

[chatabox0girl]

@TheGraceDiaries Yeah it does. I also use the old fold style cloth nappies as burp-rags (we have a puker) so I could wash them in with that. Hmm... now I just need to get my butt down to Kmart! Where did you get the soulition stuff from that you orginally used? As I don't think plain water is going to do the trick with Hunter.

[dreamflight6000]

Lacey is ADORABLE in this video! Love her hair and talking!!!!!! Love the wipe folding!! I'd like to do cloth wipes but what do you do with the poop on them when you are done? Do you rinse them out and then lay them to dry? I get so much poop on my wipes. What about cloth diapers..do you rinse the poop out or flip it into the toilet? I'd love to cloth diaper too next time around but still a little hesitant about it. I'd have to run downstairs after each diaper and scrub and with two kids? Eek

[TheGraceDiaries]

@dreamflight6000

I empty as much as i can into the toilet (not with nb poo though) and i wash everyday and it all comes out in the machine. sometimes when Felicity has exploded I rinse it in the sink or just put it in a bucket of water till its wash time. I must admist that the wipes don't get much poo on them though, Lacey isn't very messy :)

[TheTwoMoose]

Awesome video! I love Jordan's videos too. We're having our first in a couple of weeks and I was looking for some easy ways to incorporate cloth wipes into our CDing regimen. Thanks for sharing!

[ashleemaegan]

Nawww, hehe. "Hiiiiyaaaaa!!!" She's too cute!

[mebirdo]

Spray bottle is a great idea! Maybe I am being lazy, but going to get warm water for cloth wipes always seems like a big inconvenience! Although we used to do that when the bab was very little.

Thanks for the vid :)

[pedsot1]

oh my goodness grace, Lacey is adorable! So smart! Love the wipes too. Great idea! We've used recycled flannel from old pajamas, shirts, etc.

[TheGraceDiaries]

@pedsot1

Well, thats an even more frugal way of doing it, great work

[mrsjerriq]

LOL she is so cute !!! very neat idea!!

[vmorales1984]

OMGoodness she is adorable and I love her pig tails.

[TheGraceDiaries]

@vmorales1984

I know, how cute, I'm going to have to do her hair more often now that she has a little bit more.

[kimweisenberger]

That is such a good idea! I just started cloth diapering this past wek and am trying to work out our system that we are going to do here. by the way, Lacy's hair looks ADORABLE and she is soooo cute and talkative!

[TheGraceDiaries]

@kimweisenberger

We are forever changing our system here, it is good once you get into the swing of things and figure out what works best for you.

[babymac004]

Ooooh she is too cute!!! I would love to have a little girl some day :)

[TheGraceDiaries]

@babymac004 Girls are great, i must admit, its so funny how completely different to boys they are even from such a young age.

[tangeygirl]

Lacie is ADORABLE and THANKS SO MUCH for posting this! I've been thinking about switching to cloth wipes (we already cloth diaper) - super easy folding and love the water bottle idea :)

[TheGraceDiaries]

@tangeygirl

No worries, now go out and get yourself some cheap washers and a spray bottle and get cloth wiping :)

[ecmomma]

Did you just find those in the bath section? Are they just wash cloths?

[TheGraceDiaries]

@ecmomma

Yeh they are wash cloths, they were in the section that had baby wraps and blankets and sheets.

[TamaraLavon]

yay, thanks Grace and Lacey! Im gonna save this for hopeful future use :)

[TheGraceDiaries]

@TamaraLavon

Great, no worries

[MissTistaca]

at 2:26 it sounds like she is saying "hello welcome to...."(the Grace,Laci, and Felicity Diary's) She is so cute!

[TheGraceDiaries]

@MissTistaca

Ha, she probably is :) She hears me say it enough, lol

[vickywog]

you can download directly on your mac from imovie you just press the little button on the left that has a camera, just in case your camera keeps dying. Thanks for the wipes folding, that is great and so helpful

[TheGraceDiaries]

@vickywog

Thanks for that, I did notice that, I just have to plug the camera into the wall from now on. I found it so helpful watching Jordan do it that I just had to share it with you guys

[jo38me]

great vid, your little helper is soooo cute. cloth wipes for me from now on!!!!

[TheGraceDiaries]

@jo38me Great, they really are easy as can be

[skylerzmom]

Awww!!! Lacey was so precious!!! She was trying so hard to help! Her hair is so cute!! Awesome video!!!

[TheGraceDiaries]

@skylerzmom

I know, she looks so different with little girl hair. Thanks :)

[anmcdaniel06]

Lacey is SO adorable! She is so sweet and has the sweetest voice ever! I have wanted to start using cloth wipes for sometime. I spend so much on disposable.My son also has chronic diarrhea and disposable always irritate my son's diaper rash covered bum. What do you do when you go out? Do you just take a small container for the cloth wipes with the spray bottle when you go out?

[TheGraceDiaries]

@anmcdaniel06

Yeh I do, or I just take a few already wet ones with me in a leakproof container.
