Bums the Word

Products I love that revolve around tiny baby bottoms!! Come on! How dang cute is she in these chipmunk inspired diapers?!

No joke... the first time I put baby powder on Marley's bum I gasped and said to my husband, "OH MY. Its true!! Now I know why they say soft as a baby's bottom!"
I am going to be so sad when Marley is potty trained and out of diapers because I love Honest Company so dang much! Lucky for me they make rockin' healthy household products (and now vitamins!) so I'll still be able to order from them. Honest diapers are free of scary chemicals and dyes so we can sleep easier at night. Bonus: the customer service is amazing. I acutally really like talking to the folks who work there... one time we got off topic and started talking about our favorite foods. Hard to come by that kind of service these days! 

I have a couple of the really pretty ones from Pottery Barn that I received as gifts but I find them really difficult to put on our changing pad. I'm always fighting it! I found the aden + anais ones to be SO soft and really easy to put on. The first few weeks your kid is going to sh*t all over them and you'll be washing them frequently. I recommend getting 2 or 3. These are much less expensive than the PB ones too! I would also recommend several basic blankets like these to put on top of the changing pad cover to help prevent soak throughs.

Pulling a string of wipes is so incredibly frusterating when all you want is one and you only have one hand free becuase you're trying to hold baby's butt up off your changing pad cover so you don't have to wash it for the 3rd time today! This product is a problem solver!! It has a weight inside that prevents you from pull 6 wipes at a time. It's genius... I wish I would have thought to manufacture these.

Cornstartch works fantasic and is very cheap but this stuff smells fantasic. No parabens or other scary ingredients. Talc-free and absorbs natually. Marley's bottom loves this fancy little treat!

SO I know... it's a pretty expensive diaper bag but I adore mine! My favorite part by far is the zip out changing pad. I've been able to quickly and quietly change Marley's diaper in some really weird places without anyone noticing (an airport and a coat check closet at a wedding!) I also really like that I can wear it across my chest or use the straps to carry it as a backpack. I would choose a print with the coated canvas because it's really easy to clean (just wipe off dirt with a baby wipe) Be careful with the lighter color ones and denim. I knew this but chose to ignore that your jeans can rub off a little blue from your butt onto the back of the bag.

Hope you find this helpful! If you have any great baby products for those cute little buns you love please comment below or send me a message! You can also follow me on bloglovin by clicking here.
