Poop and Other Stuff
Ok, I have been scouring the internet all morning looking for the best places to buy cloth diapers. I have read eight million opinions and probably know as much as I will ever know until I take the leap of faith and commit to this system. It's the Vermont Hippy in me that came out when I decided to try cloth diapers. Not to mention, my total inexperience with this diaper thing probably makes me a little more open minded.
I've decided on Fuzzi Bunz and maybe some pre-folds or disposables in the early days. I'm having a hard time deciding on the amount to register for. Not to mention, who to buy them from. Mother of Eve has answered my questions promptly in the past unlike Cotton Babies but does not have customer friendly registry. Royal Majesty Ware offers a "Baker's Dozen" package - thirteen for the same price as twelve diapers at other sites and EMBROIDERY. Oh, decisions, decisions, decisions.
Has anyone out there dealt with any of these companies?
While I'm making please to the internet, has anyone found any onsies, receiving blankets, crib sheets, etc. in bright colors? I'm afraid that the amount of pastels available are making me nauseous. I'm certain that The Baby doesn't care one way or another but Mama will be happier if she doesn't have to look at pale yellows, baby blues and pinks for the next year. And hey, why do the boys get the brightest colors and "transportation" themed items?

My mom just called to ask what type of milk, cereal and fruit I wanted waiting for me when I visit. My mom rocks! Oh, and she also told me that she loves me more than my brother who is unable to visit this weekend because he has to go to Miami to go eat Matzah.

Tell your brother to ditch the matzoh and come to NOLA to a fabulous have dinner with Tex. He can pick the restaurant. Heeheehee...
Do you have a diaper service in NO? We really want to do cloth too but will use a diaper service for a couple months before we invest in all the goods... make sure we're really into it. May be nice to register for a few months' worth if you've got one to relieve you of one less job to get done.
The fuzzi bunz are very nice! We're looking at Kushies also -- seen those? Other than that, can't help ya.
Also, check out yourbabyregistry.com for another option for registering. We used them for our wedding and you can add anything to your list from anywhere. We registered for mulch and dog rescue donations. For the baby registry, we're going to put a maid service on there. Now THAT's really gonna help momma out.
Good luck!
Rather than pastels, check out these fun sites for funny onesies and snapsuits.

Kelley, Thanks for the regsitry advice. Maid service is a great idea! There are no diapering services in New Orleans - that would be a great enterprise to start if I felt I was up to cleaning other people's diapers.
Preggo Wkly - thanks for the link!
