Floor, and walls can be a good thing

a big trip day 4
So we hit the beach this morning and headed to visit family today. The beach was spectacular, and the water so warm! But, yeah, hard wood floors, and walls can be a good thing, when you need a break – from baby-eating-rock-patrol. What a lovely visit, dinner and time spent together. Sometimes roughing it is just about helping us appreciate the comforts we normally take for granted… like a roof.
Some people are surprised we do cloth diapering out in the bush. To be honest I am not finding it difficult at all. Granted we do visit friends and family every few days to wash laundry, and I do put on a disposable on occasion – especially at night, when its cold. But the whole cloth diapering thing has been fine. The best thing is that we can rinse the wet ones and hang them up on the line. So far we haven’t run out, and I have only 15. We save the soiled ones for the laundry machine though…
Also, the Mei Tai gets used by both of us. I wasn’t sure which wrap to bring, and we don’t have room for more than one, but because Mark and I can both wear this one, it won out. Morning nap started out this way – on my back. This is a great way to put baby to sleep while camping. It also helps on the baby-eating-rock front.
