Bootyful Baby Boutique diapers

So, like I said earlier, this little one of mine was the first in cloth diapers for our family. How did I decide what diaper I wanted to use? Well, I did some research. Not much though! I went to a store in downtown Grand Rapids called Hop Scotch where they sell cloth diapers and all sorts of children's stuff. The lady there showed me all the kinds of diapers. She showed me pocket diapers, fitted, AIO (All In One), and AI2 (All In 2). She showed me diapers with snaps, diapers with velcro, and diapers that still needed pins. She showed me diapers that needed an outer cover and diapers that didn't need an outer cover.Then there were all the brands! Overwhelmed? Very!

I took a few minutes to think about the benefits of all my choices. After thinking about it, I decided to go with an AI2 made by Bootyful Baby Boutique. My reasons for choosing an AI2 are...
*I figured that the snap in soaker pad that could be replaced without having to replace the outer layer was perfect.
*It had snaps instead of velcro, which I thought would be perfect for when baby starts crawling/scooting. It would be more difficult for the snaps to come undone than the velcro. On top of that, when you wash a diaper with velcro you have to remember to close the velcro so it doesn't catch on other diapers or get lint stuck in it. So, snaps was less of a hassle.

I only purchased one and I brought it home. I was so excited about my new find that I told everyone about it. I even thought I would teach myself how to sew and make my own cloth diapers. I was really getting into this cloth diaper thing. Needless to say, I did not teach myself how to sew and make my own diapers. Instead, I emailed the owner of Bootyful Baby Boutique and inquired about ordering more diapers. She came up with a brilliant plan! She would do a diaper show at my baby shower! This would be her first baby shower show and I thought "AMAZING! This is how I am going to get my first stash of diapers!" I must say, it was an awesome idea and I got about a dozen diapers.

The pros of this diaper are:
*Snap in soaker pad
*Snaps vs. velcro
*No plastic pants needed
*Custom orders, like embroidery on the tush (this is my favorite pro!!! )
*Super absorbent! Some leaks but nothing that I could have prevented...

The cons of this diaper are:
*Does not grow with baby... separate diapers for small, medium, and large sizes
*Some snaps don't want to work, but mail the diaper back to Bootyful Baby Boutique, and they will fix it! :)

Would I recommend this diaper? ABSOLUTELY! I already have!
