10 Ways For Parents To Save TIME by Going Green

Too often, time is the cruncher that drives some mamas away from living more simply (okay, so that was a hidden pun; for those who are unfamiliar with the term, “crunchy” is often used to mean “natural” or “green”). Here are ten ways to save time over one week by green living.

New Experience- Bumbo

Brian and I put Sam into his Bumbo for the first time this week. He was leaning back part of the time and making us nervous, but once we got him upright and leaning forward we took some pictures.

Bad News- Professional Photos with Sam

Unfortunately, our photographer had a problem with her computer and all of Sam's pictures were lost, even with data recovery software. They are still online if you wish to see them (http://blog.kelseybigelowphotography.com/2009/06/sam-is-here.html).

Boo hoo!! We are scheduling another session for next month.

There is a little bit of a silver lining with this. There were some shots that we did not think to get, so I just need to make a list of the shots and outfits that we want so that they aren't missed.

We were planning on sending some pictures to the grandfathers as a belated Father's Day present, so these will have to be delayed a little bit longer.

Greeley Stampede and New Diapers

The Wilson Family had the day off of work on Friday, due to the holiday, so we took a trip up to Greeley for the Greeley Stampede. They were trying to charge $10 for parking, but a short walk away we found parking for free. Yea!!

There isn't much going on unless you are going to pay for tickets to the rodeo (which we weren't). We did have some pretty good BBQ and checked out all of the games and rides.

Here are some cute pictures that I got of Sam and Brian.

The 2nd part of this this post is about some cloth diapers that I purchased on the recommendation of another mother. This is a one size fits all diaper where the snaps control the size of the diaper. I purchased 6 at first, but if Sam likes them, I'm going to purchase more.

I can take Sam into daycare with a cloth diaper, but they won't use them all day. It will definitely reduce our purchasing of disposable diapers for weekends.
