If you follow me on Instagram at all, you probably saw that last week my little man finally sprouted his third tooth. Yes, you read that correctly: at just over 14 months he now only has 3 teeth! It’s silly, but this is something I’ve been worrying about like crazy. I KNOW he has teeth coming in, I KNOW it’s actually better for his teeth that they’re coming in slowly. And while I can certainly wait for him to grow up, I’m also excited to see what he looks like with his big sweet smile filled with beautiful pearly whites.
When it comes to Weston’s milestones I always feel a little torn, and each one is a little bittersweet. I get so excited to watch him turn into the little boy and the man that he’s going to become, but I can’t help but miss the tiny helpless baby he once was. The other day I found a newborn diaper that was leftover from the first few weeks of his life, and when I placed it next to the size 4 he wears now I burst into tears. I know it sounds crazy, but there are times when I mourn a little bit the fact that he will no longer be so tiny, but every stage he goes through is even more incredible than the one before so I can’t help but rejoice in the fact that I get to watch it all unfold before my eyes.
When I got the chance to try Huggie’s SlipOns diapers on my rapidly growing little man, I jumped at it. He is so active and hardly has time to have diapers with tabs put on him. Those kitchen cupboards aren’t going to explore themselves, you know 😉 And while I was a little sad to do his “first fitting” (where we actually put the diaper on standing up), I consider myself blessed to be part of every milestone!
So my verdict on the diapers? LOVE THEM. They seem super comfortable for Wes, and we haven’t had any leaks at all. I love that the sides tear away to remove them easily (practically one-handed!), and they’re so easy for him to move around in. Plus I really like that I don’t have to lay him down on gross changing tables when we’re out in public, which means that he won’t be grabbing and trying to chew on said gross changing tables. Instead I can stand him up and we sing and laugh and make the whole process of changing him fun instead!
My little guy may be growing leaps and bounds and moving at the speed of baby lightning, but I am completely blessed to see it all unfolding before my eyes – even if it does happen faster than I want sometimes!
