My new obsession!
These are delicious! I had a sample, and was hooked. Of course, a whole bag is a bit much. But I'm trying to cut down on huge desserts (yeah, right), so a few a day makes my sweet tooth very happy.
And, these just arrived in the mail for me:
I am excited (ask me in about 4 months) to start cloth-diapering. I have always used disposable. There are fancier versions like Bumgenius but I opted for the economical price and color, white :)
Also, mine are prefolds. If you order through Mom4Life, she offers free shipping on all her products, just like shopping in the store. Another cool feature about Mom4Life is that all her products were created by moms. Until January 10, she is offering 10% off all products. This is like, my favorite online place to shop for baby stuff!
Here are two other products I would like to try, but am still mulling over...
(reusable and washable silicone breast pads that adhere to your breast) I like the fact that these can be reused up to 2 months; you can even go bra-free in them. They do not show through swimsuits or thin shirts.

these babywearing styles
FreeHand™ Asian Style Baby Carrier by TogetherBe
The Peanut Shell Cotton Stretch Baby Sling by Goo-Ga
Obviously, I am a price princess and love the Peanut Shell because it's cheaper, but I like the idea of having free hands. The thing I like about both carriers is that they are soft cloth and an infant is not stifled inside. I bought a Snugli with Brilla and did not like how she couldn't fit into it as a newborn. Had to wait at least 3 months or so. Anyone have a preference or tried a carrier they really like?

Thrilled to read your kind words, thank you! The baby carriers you are deciding between are both great in different ways. You might check out our sling comparison chart here: charthttp://www.mom4life.com/pages/slingcomparisonchart.php BUT a little bird told me that the Peanut Shell carriers will be going on sale on our site on the 11th;). . . also, I was eyeballing those dark chocolates at Costco, thanks for the top that they are as good as they look!

ok... adding my 2cents on your ponderings:
(by the way... I LOVE mom4life too!!)
the lilypadz are GREAT! (and they didn't even fit me... SO excited that they have larger ones now! Can't wait to try them!!)
And... if you are only ever going to buy one baby carrier in your life, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get a Moby wrap! :o) It will change your life. That's all I have to say.
Hey! I love MOM4life too! YOu have to get the Ergo Carrier!!! You will not regret that purchase! There is a cult-like following for that thing and after trying the sling, the peanut shell, the baby bjorn type one, the mai-tai wrap and several others with my daughter, I found that absolutely nothing compared to the comfort of the ERGO for both my daughter and myself… she didn’t like any of the ones mentioned above but insisted on being carried constantly so I kept buying carriers and trying them until I found the ERGO. Nothing compares!!!! You can get an infant insert too so you can use it with a newborn and the weight limit on the carrier is high so you can use it for years... It is SUPER comfortable and truly hands free. It is totally worth the 105 price tag too because you can sell yours used for at least 80 bucks.. I have tried all the ones you mentioned and for me, they all disappointed, not comfortable and truly not hands free. I know I sound like I sell this but I don't I just can't speak more highly of it. I went to a birth class before I had my son and they told us that many carriers, especially the snugli/bjorn type ones are very hard on baby's hips, the ergo is designed to take the pressure off of baby's growing hips. If you decide on one, you can get used on ebay or new the best price is at the ebay store bigbluecaslte, 105 with no tax and free shipping.
Good luck!!!
Thanks for all the tips, gals!
I have been dreaming about wraps/slings/carriers for days, now. Haha.
