Today Princess Tater Tot and I went for a run down at the beach where Daddy was surfing and I ran 3 whole miles!  This would not have been much of an accomplishment BTT (Before Tater Tot) but since she was born, the running…it just hasn’t been happening very often.  So I have a tremendous sense of accomplishment along with a very sore backside!  I guess there are muscles in there that I just haven’t been using very much…

When we got home, I put Tater down for her nap and got ready to go shopping.  Yes, shopping again!  It seems like there’s always something we need.  Anyway, usually I put her down and she talks to herself and plays in her crib for about an hour before she falls asleep.  Then she usually sleeps for an hour.  Well, when I got home at 11:00, she had just woken up.  So she took about a two hour nap!  And the “We’ve Got A Winner” part of this all is that during this three hour period her Bum Genius DID NOT LEAK!  Not one. Little. Bit.  Wahooooo!  For those of you who have been cloth diapering for a while, that is not a “wahoo moment” but for me, who has been cloth diapering for two seconds, it is momentous!  The Fuzzi Bunz that I tried before leaked during nap time unless I had a super-absorbent hemp insert so the fact that the Bum Genius didn’t leak with just a normal insert is HUGE!  The other thing I like about the Bum Genius is that the insert has snaps on it so you can adjust the coverage.  For Tater Tot, she doesn’t need the insert to go all the way to the back, especially during nap time since she naps on her tummy.  So I snapped it over to include more coverage in the front and voila!  No leaks!  And I’m really loving the hook and loop closure that lets me adjust the fit to Tater’s chunky little legs!  I got my Bum Genius over at Cottonbabies.  Their customer service was great, too!  When part of my order was back ordered, they sent me an email letting me know that.  I was able to let them know that they could substitute any color and they got it to me QUICK!  The order shipped out Thursday and I got them on Saturday.  So, FINALLY, after the eBay Fuzzi Bunz debacle, my cloth diapering adventure can begin!
