GIVEAWAY!
Yesterday was an exciting day...I finally hit 100 followers on my blog. I also thought it would be the perfect time to sponsor my first giveaway, just one of the ways I can say thank you to all my readers.
I've been going back and forth deciding on a perfect giveaway item, and wanted something popular that wouldn't break the bank. So, I decided to giveaway one pair of BabyLegs to the winner. Not only are BabyLegs fashionable, but can be beneficial to both you and baby... they simplify diaper changes... protect crawling knees... makes potty training easy, etc. We are a huge fan of BabyLegs in our home, with P-man owning quite a few pairs, and even W has worn a pair (the football ones are his favorite).

This Giveaway is only open to US residents. It will end on June 15 @ 11:59 EST. If I receive any entries past the above listed time, they will be removed, and not be counted. A winner will then be drawn via Random.org and will be contacted via email and will have 48 hours to respond.

**NOW CLOSED**
A few months ago, I began researching and looking into a fun airplane shirt and diaper for P-man to wear for photos and to his birthday party. I remembered a good friend of mine mentioned she was starting to sew diapers for her WAHM (Work At Home Mom) business. I decided to seek her out to see if she could do something fun and custom for P-man's special day.
Kate, over at Plum Crazy For Cloth custom designed a raglan airplane shirt and a one size minky pocket diaper with zorb insert using the Landing Zone Airplanes & Rockets pattern. The shirt was extremely soft and loved that it matched the diaper.
ABOUT THE DIAPER: This Plum Crazy For Cloth diaper is a one-size minky pocket diaper with a zorb insert. Some of you maybe scratching your head and wondering what is a zorb insert?
DiaperMaker Zorb™ is a specialty textile designed to reduce cost and improve performance of reusable cloth diapers and
accessory products. ZORB absorbs 10x it's weight in less than half a second -- that's 20x faster than cotton, bamboo or hemp. Zorb has incredible holding power too, a single layer holds up to 3 times the moisture of the best absorbing knits so leaking and exterior wicking can be reduced or eliminated.
ZORB can be washed using home or industrial equipment and additives. It absorbency is not effected by hard water or with natural detergent deposits diaper-stripping to regain absorbency is virtually eliminated.
This diaper also has strong snaps on the waist and on the rise to give you that snug fit. It also has good elasticity along the sides of the diaper and along the back. The inner lining of the diaper is made from a minky fabric, which makes for a softer more comfortable fit for baby.
MY FIRST IMPRESSION: I love the pattern and fabric of the outer part of the diaper, it made it look very sleek. The inner lining minky fabric was incredibly soft. I did notice the fact the diaper seemed a little small for a one-size, which means P-man will probably outgrow this dipe before he reaches 30 lbs. However, it did fit pretty snug and had maximum coverage, which is great on a baby with a large bottom and chunky thighs.

ABSORBENCY:The zorb insert makes this diaper extremely absorbent, which is perfect for those heavy wetters or for use during the overnight. I will add though, P-man has yet to go past 6 hours in this diaper, so right now I can't tell you if the absorbency would last up to 12 hours or not. I can tell you that there were no signs of leaks up to 6 hours.
OVERALL IMPRESSION: I love this diaper! It was great being able to choose the type of pattern, insert, and fabric. The fit, durability, and absorbency of this diaper stands up to a very active 1-year-old. The care instructions for this diaper are super easy, and it can be used in the dryer. In fact, the more often you wash and dry the more absorbent this diaper becomes. Again, the only negative thing I have to say is...I wish there was another set of snaps on the rise, because I'm not sure if this diaper will make last until 30 lbs.
As you can see, Kate doesn't only make diapers, but she can custom design shirts and other clothing wear. She also makes wool dryer balls, cloth wipes, aprons, wet bags, blankets, etc. Definitely stop by her Facebook fan page: Plum Crazy for Cloth or the hyenacart store website she uses to check out her latest projects: Peace, Love, and Cloth For All Congo.
***Kate has graciously offered to host a giveaway to go along with my review. She will giveaway either a dozen cloth wipes, 6 unpaper towels, a pair of dryer balls, a changing pad, or a diaper to one lucky winner.***
