So what's in my 'stash??

This the majority of our stash.  

About a dozen flat diapers,

10 flour sack towels (not all pictured)

and 6 receiving blankets.

I am using the Gerber flats you can purchase at Wal-Mart.  Mainly because my goal is to show others that you can use what is readily available locally.  Many folks on a tight budget don't have the means to order stuff online...so I wanted to use diapers that you could get locally.  Now that can't be said for most of my covers.  But later this week I will be sharing how I made my fleece covers!

For covers we have 2 fleece covers (at the moment a few more are still on the machine),

6 econobum one size covers I got on a seconds sale at CottonBabies (less than $30 for all)

4 Mother-Ease covers I got from a friend.

1 Flip Cover

2 gpants 

1 Pro-Wrap (that is pushing the too small side)

& 2 LiteWrap covers (which are my favorite)

We also have 3-4 pocket diapers in rotation for others to use.  

I am also using snappis to secure my folds.  

My entire stash costed me around $100 however that has been over time not all at once.  The flats themselves cost $12, the flour sack towels about $10 and the receiving blankets where gifts we received.  The rest of my money is in covers.  All of these covers except the Econobum have been used on multiple kids.  

Needless to say we have lots of covers...but this little farm boy makes lots of messes so he get's changed often.  

He loves

 playing with the new kitten which includes 

emptying the poor things food and water bowls multiple times each day...

Climbing gates to get to the horses, after crawling through the red dirt...

plus this week he will be in and out of the silage field helping to harvest feed for our dairy cattle.

The big kid loved it!  And that sled...is the same one William used as a child...perhaps even Nana.

Here's a throwback to one of Wyatt's first rides on that sled

Almost 2 years ago now I started Wrangler Wednesday instead of a wordy or wordless Wednesday.  

You can check out the original Wrangler Wednesday here.  We don't get much snow here in SC so these pictures are from a thunder snow we had the middle of February.  We received about 5-6 inches at our house in less than 2 hours.     And yes it was all gone 2 days later.

Wrangler Wednesday is my play on wordless Wednesday!  All the photos included might not have men in Wranglers but the pics do include hardworking folks who love to wear their patches!

"I'm done picking blueberries Mom...I ate my weight now let's go"...according to the hubs they should weigh him in and out during pick-your-own season!

I know I know I used this photo already but I love it!  Aunt Rachel in a headchute...perfect!

Wrangler Wednesday...our life in pictures some are old some are new but all are what happens on the family farm and in our travels which also usually center around agriculture.
