{{tumbleweeds and spooky abandoned ghost town noises}}
Well, since I didn’t get a single Mailbox Mondays submission for this week, I’m going to ask you a question instead.
{{crickets chirping}}
OK, here goes.  Has anyone noticed a color difference between the tabs on their bumgenius 4.0 compared to the body of the diaper?
Bumgenius 4.0 Tabs
I didn’t notice this with my 3.0s, or my “sweet” or “grasshopper” 4.0.  So, I was wondering if this is just how they are, if I got one with two different dye lots, or if maybe I received a “second” since this was a replacement of a 3.0 under warranty.
Anyone?  I know it doesn’t matter but it bugs me darn it!!

A Year of Fluff All In One Diapers Cloth Diapers Giveaway Made in the USA Review Sized Diapers Velcro/Aplix Closure WAHM made

Designs by Cace AIO Diaper Review & Giveaway (CLOSED 10/30)

>

Designs By Cace AIO Diaper

Designs by Cace is another WAHM brand, making sized fitteds, all-in-ones (AIOs) and covers, as well as nursing covers and slings.

I received a size medium AIO, which is estimated to fit 10-22 pounds.  Small fits about 5-10 pounds, and large about 20-35 pounds.

The diaper has a soft minky inner, a 3 layer sewn in soaker (very trim, but probably best just for daytime) and velcro closures with laundry tabs.  I really like the black velcro closures, it’s a nice contrast and it’s different than other diapers.  I did notice a few areas where the stitching could have been a little tighter/neater, but it didn’t affect the function of the diaper at all.

The diaper is a smidge smaller than some other mediums I have; here it is compared to a one-size diaper on the medium setting:

Here it is measured folded and stretched:

It fit my 18.5 pound guy just fine with plenty of room to grow.

We didn’t have any leak or fit issues, and though it looks like it was digging into his belly, it’s just the way he was sitting.

A solid color medium AIO like I received, is just $10!  Wow!  Medium prints are $10-12.   A large AIO is $12, with prints ranging from $12-$15.  Smalls are a little less at $9 each.  Fleece covers are just $5-8!  These are very Daddy friendly and affordable enough to buy several and support a WAHM.
