Baby Beduga Cloth Diaper Review {Giveaway}

Disclosure: I received the product below to help facilitate my review. All opinions are my own and completely honest. I was not compensated in any other way.

Crystal is a WAHM who started cloth diapering with her second child. She wanted to lower her budget for disposable diapers, reduce waste, and avoid chemicals on her baby's skin. She then decided to get into the cloth diaper industry. She designed a diaper that she uses on her little one. This is how Baby Beduga came to be. Her business is run so that she has low overhead and can supply diapers at a lower cost than many others on the market, without hindering quality.

Crystal sent me the Happy Day Chevron Diaper. I love multiple/bright colored prints! I've been showing this diaper off and everyone loves the print! It is a great colorful, neutral print!

Characteristics of Baby Beduga pocket diapers:

• Each diaper comes with a three layer microfiber insert
• Diaper is a PUL (waterproof) outer, with micro-fleece inner to wick moisture away from baby's skin
• One size fits most (7-36 lbs)
• Adjustable rise settings
• Adjustable waist/hip settings
• High quality, low cost
• Super cute prints, solids also available

There are three rise settings. Snap at the bottom for small, the top snap is medium and unsnapped is large. Between that and the two rows of snaps for the waist and hip adjustment, you can get a good fit for babies of many sizes.

The elastic is soft, yet remains taught. The pocket opening is at the top of the back of the diaper, with elastic in both the PUL and the fleece lining to ensure the insert stays inside the diaper and will not be exposed to baby's skin.

Bug is about 25 lbs and on the largest rise setting. He still has plenty of room to grow into the waist. I believe this diaper will easily fit to 36 lbs+.

This kid is a serious mover! I have a really hard time getting him to stay still. Despite that, we haven't had any leak issues with this diaper. I will say though that I haven't tried it for sleep times. He is a tummy sleeper, usually with his bum in the air. This diaper does not have a tummy panel, while I am confident nap times would not be an issue, I stick to diapers with a tummy panel for overnights.

When you support Baby Beduga you are also supporting a greater cause. Baby Beduga reaches out to the community by providing cloth diapers to orphanages. When the orphanages have cloth diapers they can reduce their operating costs and migrate the money used on diapers to help the children in other ways.

This Giveaway is sponsored by #Tassimo and Hosted by It's Peachy Keen. Also CO-Hosted by My Couponing Life and Oh Just Stop Already.

Wouldn't you love waking up to a coffee shop style coffee right from your own kitchen?! Save time and money with Tassimo! Better yet, win one for yourself (or a friend)! A great way to start your day!  

What is a Tassimo Brewer?

#TASSIMO is a one-cup, on-demand beverage system that uses INTELLIBREW^TM to make sure every cup is brewed using the right amount of water, the right temperature and the right brew time.

#TASSIMO creates an assortment of authentic coffeehouse-style beverages including coffee, tea, cappuccino, espresso, latte, hot chocolate and more conveniently at home. Most of our beverages are ready in about a minute and the cappuccinos and lattes are made with real liquid milk. It is more than just a coffee maker!

" I can say as a #Tassimo lover that is is amazing. I have no need to go out for a special coffee or drink. They are made perfect in the kitchen now. Also I click the button on and the machine is ready to go. No waiting for the water to get hot or it to be ready to brew. It is instant. With my mornings being as hectic as they are with three little kids wanting my attention. I need something fast and convenient. #Tassimo is both. While their coffee selection isn't HUGE yet they are growing a lot and all the coffee products they do offer really hit the spot on quality and tastiness. "

What is a T Disc? You know the kind of coffee pod the machine uses!....

The ingenious #TASSIMO Disc pod (T DISC) was developed exclusively for use with #TASSIMO single cup brewers. Each T DISC contains an expertly measured portion of coffee, hot chocolate, tea, or liquid milk creamer. When the T DISC is inserted, the #TASSIMO single cup brewer uses INTELLIBREW^TM to read the barcode printed on the label. The code specifies beverage size, brewing time and optimal temperature required to prepare the beverage. All the brewing occurs inside the T DISC, ensuring perfect quality in every cup.

" The #Tassimo is not just any kind of coffee brewer it is amazing. It creates the perfect cup of coffee for you no matter what type of drink you are looking for. It is a brewer and makes all kinds of drinks. I enjoy Lattes, Cappuccinos, Chair Tea, Teas, Hot Chocolate, and much more. It's a brewer my whole family can use. It's not just for coffee lovers. The #Tassimo brewer Also comes with a disc you can use to clean the machine out. That is awesome to me because I like to know I drinking from a clean machine. "

The Otter, the Spotted Frog & the Great Flood (Children's Book~Review)

Disclosure: I received the book below from Wisdom Tales Press to help facilitate my review. All opinions are my own and honest. 

"There were two animal people who lived in the long ago..."

The story of The Otter, The Spotted Frog & The Great Flood is retold by Gerald Hausman. It is based off of the Georgia Creek Indian story telling about the first man and the first woman. This story throws in wisdoms to listen to your elders and nature.

Listener the Otter was told to build a raft because there is going to be a flood. But does he listen to Spotted Frog? Does he build the raft? After the flood starts you are brought through the story from animal to animal. Then eventually to man. Follow the characters through the book as they see what is happening around them and learn where life is directing them.

Ramon Shiloh's colorful artwork really brings this story to life.  While the artwork on every page is unique, but as you read from page to page you still get a strong sense of continuity. My favorite images in the book are that of the manatees and the fish!

Weaving in traditional values and the idea of listening to nature, first man and first woman lived on earth "..the earth was good to them, so they say, and they were good to the earth in retun."

Buy it: Wisdom Tales Press

Win It: Wisdom Tales Press is giving one of my readers a copy of The Otter, The Spotted Frog & The Great Flood. Enter below.

Winner must be 18+ and a resident of the US.
