My custom order from Sugarbums came today, hooray! I must say I am very impressed- maybe it's the velour (our first velour diapers) but these just seem SO soft and luscious, and they are very well made. I have spent a silly amount of time today petting them. :P I haven't got pics yet, but I will post some as soon as I do.

I ordered 2 fitted diapers, one celtic knot print outer that has velour inside, and one organic cotton velour that is doubly soft and cushy with short napped organic velour inside and long napped organic outside. They are both french cut, because littleman has always been a bit chunky in the thighs. I started to worry because only a few days after placing my order, littleman started walking (yay!) and in the couple weeks from then to now his thighs have slimmed noticeably. I wondered if they would fit, but it seems they fit great, with room to grow. So, yippee! And communicating with Heidi has been terrific- she's so nice (and patient!), and has great attention to detail.

I was at a friend's house and finally gave in to putting one of them on littleman, even though I haven't washed them yet. Wouldn't you know it, I stayed too late, he fell asleep in the car, and now he is in it for the night! I guess it's the ultimate test- we'll see how it does! At least nights these days are nowhere near the super-soaker events they used to be!

Wow, they sound like great diapers! I can't wait to see pictures (and hear about how they did overnight). :)

Yep, I really like our Sugarbums too so far.. haven't used them yet but they are very aesthetically pleasing to me! I have 4 all OV ones.. 2 are french cut and 2 aren't. I had no idea what to expect with Mari's build!

Oh, isn't velour fantastic? Someone needs to make velour underpants for mamas! ;)

Congrats on Littleman walking. Yay!

And OT: I swear I will have your cover and spoon ready for the mail tomorrow. I'm such a dingbat. I saw this post and went and got everything ready!

ETA: I can't find the email with your address. Do you mind PMing it or emailing it to me?

Finally have a few pics to show! (Sorry for the blurry shots- littleman did NOT want to be still!)

Here are the two diapers:

Here he is in the organic velour:

It's a bit fluffy, but OH so soft!

And here he is in the celtic print:

The Celtic print made it all night the first time he wore it! It has an inner layer of hemp, so perhaps that's why it worked. I also ordered it with a trifold soaker. The organic velour diaper feels like a cloud! Littleman even petted it! :)

Anyway, still loving these diapers.

Those look great and your son is so cute. I'm glad it worked at night for you, too.

Oh my goodness, I am loving your DS. He is just the cutest juciest little thing out there! The diapers are gorgeous too!

Okay, I don't usually call little babies "Yummy", especially because I don't want to give people the wrong impression, but he is pretty yummy in those diapers. And in that last picture, he really looks like the Cat's Meow, if you know what I mean! Absolutely adorable! Thanks for the update, Kit!

Those diapers are gorgeous--they do look nice and trim.

Littleman is the cutest ever. He looks very happy in his soft, new dipes! :)

Oops, missed this before! Sorry!
The site is: http://www.sugarbums.com/store/agora.cgi
She offers print diapers, or hand-dyed, and she has hemp or organic cotton. . . a very nice selection.

Thanks everyone! Yes, we think he is pretty yummy. Even juicy, LOL! But we're biased, so of course it's always nice to hear y'all agree. ;) And the dipes are great, too!

Anna- I e-mailed you, did you get it?

He really IS super yummy in those yummy dipes! Thanks for sharing the photos!

I have always liked Heidi's diapers, they were some of the first I tried. I want some of her wool pants!
