some times we just have to take a break and play with bugs- lady bugs that is, bella loves creepy crawly lady bugs. It so much fun to see how happy she is playing with nature.

the piper

just look at what trouble the miss piper got into today while she should have been napping.

the sales

We are so happy about all of the sales we have been getting. It is awesome that we are being talked about so much. i am happy with all the chatter. we really appreciate all of the repeat customers and the joy fluffy mail bring to everyone. update on shipping April, Hillary, Gabrielle, are almost done will be working vary late tonight to get these out , any one else please feel free to e-mail me and i will update on how long.

i had lots of fun this week making this wonderful spring wool shorts.

the benefits of wool and why we support the use with cloth diapers!

The why? why do i use wool pants on bella and piper. i know that wool pants or diaper covers are not scratchy. they are actually super soft and i prefer the wool over polyester or cotton. i don't have to buy the pul covers (waterproof) that there is major savings at an average of $8.00 a piece. when i take the girls out for lunch or to a baby shower everyone commitments on their pants and think they are so cute. i definitely can't say the last time that happened even in our old navy clothes. When my daughters sleep at night i can be sure that there pajama bottoms are naturally fire resistant and they will not wake up in morning with wet sheets. i know that i will be able to re-sell them for at least the cost of the wool which is a super benefit to me as we get every last use of them.

can you feel the excitement? i am so happy to be able to present diapers made from such wonderful materials. More absorbent more environmental and longer lasting diapers. I am proud to say only a few other stores have gone this route so far but i am sure we are just at the begging of the new revolution in cloth diapers, drum roll please, we here at piper's closet are now using organic bamboo/ hemp fleece instead of the bamboo/ cotton fleece.

customs

dropping off the face of the earth tomorrow to finish all of these customs up. oh course still will answer e-mails because this computer beeps whenever i get one and i can't help but check them.

last night

last night was long, Bella is sick and tossed and turned and cried most of the night. She has quite a hacking cough and i am hoping it is not RSV. When we did get to sleep finally we were awaken shortly but the wonderful miss piper whom thought we could use a hair washing with the dawn dish soap. good news is she did not get it in our eyes so maybe this means she will turn out to be a good hairdresser. today i am finishing up the Pauline custom and waiting for more snaps to arrive. We just love www.kamsnaps. com they are extremely reliable for snaps and always provide superior customer service. I think the new advertising is slowly working i am vary happy with cloth diaper nation. Mom (head person in charge) is a super mom and made the whole start of this business relationship perfect, quick and super respectful in way that i know it will be a vary pleasant experience. Another cloth diaper forum made no sense , have only had 14 impressions and still have not seen the banner so i really don't know where it is even located, all e-mails from them were not super polite and we will not do business with them again. On a positive note i love all of the new owl fabric. Dying blue OBV today.

Bored with winter yet? here is something to do.

yea we have one follower, well hopefully that will change soon. just wanted to get this link out for all of our crafting momma's who are looking for something special to do. this link is for project Linus which donates all sorts of blankets to kids in need, who might be sick , ect. they accept all sizes and kinds like knitted, crocheted, fleece, quilts, ect. they do however need to be homemade and made with love in kid friendly colors. http://www.projectlinus.org/
