Win a FREE FuzziBunz One Size Diaper

I just placed my order with www.softclothbunz.com for my cloth diapers, which should be arriving today - very excited about it :-)! SoftClothBunz has been great so far and is even working with me on shipping my back ordered cloth wipes at a later time!

Speaking of which, that is the giveaway this week, so check it out below!

On this Earth Day 2009, I wanted to begin my blog with a list of some of the ways we have gone green in our family over the last year and what we hope to implement this summer. Feel free to share what you are doing to 'go green' and your future plans!

Currently:

• Reusable bags for shopping - estimating 10 plastic bags saved per week, adds up to 520 a year.
• Non-gasoline lawn mower - reduced gas & noise pollution.
• Energy efficiency test - how does your bill average with similar homes?
• Compact fluorescent light bulbs - they will save you money in the long run.
• Recycling - has allowed us to average one bag of trash per week for three people!
• Homemade baby wipes - control what ingredients are used on the baby bum :-).
• Seventh Generation products - what hidden petro-chemicals are in your dish & laundry products? We have used and love their products for over six years!
• Laundry washed cold & combined - lower the electric bill & avoid water waste with extra loads.
• Cloth napkins - find them on clerance somewhere and save money and trash!
• Dishcloths - instead of paper towels for cleaning the kids and the kitchen after meals and messes.
• Fill reusable containers with home-filtered water - do you really want to buy bottled?
• Walking to the bank, post office, and doctors office when possible - yes, we live close!
• Farmer's Market shopping - love local organic produce.
• Part-time cloth diapering - we're just getting started.
• Husband takes public transportation to work when possible - less gas, cars on the road & stress!

By Summer:

• Full-time cloth diapering - avoid smelly garbage, filling landfills & save money.
• Plant an organic, high-yield garden for fresh vegetables - control your own food & save money.
• Composting for garden - use your fruit & veggie skins & put them to work.
• Hang dry most laundry outside - save energy and have naturally fresh smelling clothes.
