Stash Update

Wow! Life with two children 2 and under is BUSY! Here's an update on our cloth diapering.
It has grown quite a bit because of a website called Diaper Swappers. It's a great place to buy/sell/trade new and used diapers. We've bought and traded a few and we're pretty happy so far!
Here's what we have:

Two wetbags (1 FuzziBunz Mint, 1 Rumparooz Eco Owl)
Two small Grovia Wetbags (not pictured)
32 Cloth Wipes (I made)
8 Grovia AI2 Shells (Owls, Planes, Bluebird, Vanilla, 2 Cosmos, Blackberry)
4 Thirsties Covers (Alice Brights, Raspberry, Mango, Meadow)
3 Rumparooz G2 Pocket's (1 orange not pictured) (Eco Owl and Lux)
2 FuzziBunz One Size (Chocolate Truffle, Crushed Berries)
1 Small Happy Heiny (Cow Print)
4 Large Happy Heiny's (Blue, Hunter, Light Yellow, Orange- not pictured)
2 Kissa's Pocket Trainers
And the diapers themselves (not pictured):
8 flats (cotton)
6 Grovia Oragnic cotton soakers
4 Pooter's Contours (cotton)
6 gCloth (microfleece with hemp)
8 Thirsties Hemp Inserts
This is really probably more than we need, but I just can't help how cute some of these things are! The large HH's and the Pocket Trainers are Big Boy's for naps and over nights. Everything else is Sassy's :-) We've gone to all natural fibers...the microfiber we were using wasn't working well for them and was just stinky in the wash...
We kind of rotate through the different kinds depending on my moods, but Big Boy always sleeps in a HH with two hemp inserts and Sassy sleeps in a Rumparooz with two hemp inserts. This is just what works best for them...they are both tummy sleepers.
This is our update....we're trying a new washing routine with a detergent called Tiny Bubbles and Tide Free and Clear. It's working better than when we used All Free and Clear (military version).
Feel free to ask any questions and I'll continue to try and update!
Oh yeah, those inserts I made....they were cut in half and became cleaning rags :-)
