I’m back from Adult Summer Camp (ABC Kids Expo)
I could post a lot of photos of the fabulous new products I saw at ABC Kids Expo but I already did that on Instagram. Instead, as I adjust once again to my normal life, I’d rather reflect on my week of Summer Camp for Adults (term stolen from Katie Pickles from AppleCheeks). Every single […]
What Being a Blogger Really Means (Hint- It’s a Real Job)
I didn’t exactly go to college with the dream of being a cloth diaper blogger. I didn’t even major in English or Journalism. My initial plan was to become a High School English teacher and I was on that track until I fell in love with Religious Studies. In a strange turn of events I […]
Celebrating 3 Years of Dirty Diaper Laundry and a “Cloth Rocks” Shirt Giveaway
3 years ago Dirty Diaper Laundry was born when I hit “publish” on my very first post. I had no idea what DDL would become. I had no clue where I was going with the blog or that it would become a popular resource for cloth diaper information. For fun I browsed my own blog […]
Am I crazy? #NaBloPoMo
For some reason I decided to join #NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month). In November. The same month that includes a major holiday and a 1.5 week trip to North Carolina for our family. I’ve been filming cloth diaper reviews for weeks to stock up so that while I’m out of town and celebrating Christmas […]
What’s on Your Fridge?
It occured to me a few days ago that my refrigerator was telling on me. How is that? Refrigerators can’t talk! They can’t, but they can sure call me out in many ways. On the outside my refrigerator is a window into my family, my temperament, my habits, and more. The disorganized photos, coupons, random […]
When Twitter Comes to Life- or ABC Kids Expo 2011
The best part of ABC Kids Expo, the largest Juvenile Products Convention in the US- is not seeing all of the new products. For me, the highlight of ABC Kids Expo is meeting the faces behind the name. Unless you were there or have been before it is impossible to grasp the enormity that is […]
A Black Cloud Overhead
A black cloud has decided to loom over me for over a week now. A routine blog fix to correct the issue of not being able to browse my older posts past the first page ended up creating a domino effect of issues. This is partly thanks to the complicated beast that is my Cloth […]
BlogHer ’11- The Highlight Reel
If you are tired of reading about BlogHer posts then I have good and bad news. Bad news: this post is about BlogHer ’11. Good news: this is my last Blogher ’11 post. Now, get ready for Stream of Consciousness writing with no timeline. Forget the rules of good blogging, grammar, spelling, and sense. People: […]
My Boobs are Excited for BlogHer ’11!
Last year I wasn’t able to make Blogher ’10 in NYC (4 hours from my home) for a few reasons. I waited too long to purchase my tickets and the event sold out, and it also fell just a few short weeks away from my EDD for my second son Ev. I had a major […]
Pumping at BlogHer ’11? Consider Donating Breastmilk!
One of the hardest things about planning to go to my first blogging conference- BlogHer ’11 in San Diego this August- was deciding to leave my nursling at home with his father. My son will be 10 months old when I go. Many people think 10 months is almost time to wean but not me. […]
