#FluffyButts -Sponsor Spotlight - Cozy Bums
Of course one of the main products that Cozy Bums carries is cloth diapers, in many sizes, colours, types and styles. They sell a variety of brands, featuring the ever-popular FuzziBunz Pocket Diapers, bumGenius! 4.0 Cloth Diapers, AMP One-Size Duo pockets, AppleCheeks, Happy Heinys, GroVia Hybrid Diapers, Kissaluvs, Flip, Bamboozle Organic Fitted Diapers, Bummis Prefolds and Covers, Stretch Bamboozle, Baby Kangas One-Size Pouch Diapers, Tots Bots Easy Fit and Tini Fit, Charlie Banana cloth diapers and much more.
My experience with Cozy Bums started when I was pregnant with our second child. Having cloth diapered with our first child I knew I would be with this one too. However, I also had set aside some money so that I could make an investment in some more decent diapers.
We finally settled on the Fuzzi Bunz Diapers, and having used Velcro diapers with our son we were excited for the snaps and the pocket diaper concept. We had a great time picking out colours for our "stash". We are currently still using Fuzzi Bunz in size mediums and working toward potty training. I really like this color of Fuzzi Bunz in Crushed Berries.
We also love the Diaper Sprayer that we received from Cozy Bums. The bum Genius cloth diaper sprayer quickly became a favorite in our house. Clean up has been so much easier with this item and install was nice and easy. As long as we remember to not turn up the spray too high clean up of diapers is a quick, not get your hands yucky process.
CozyBums has a wide variety of other products such as swim diapers, cloth wipes, wet bags, cloth diaper friendly laundry detergent, changing pads, fasteners, creams, training pants, diaper bags, baby clothes and gear, and baby and skincare. So there is something for everyone, even for those who are not cloth diapering or kids have outgrown diapers.
Cozy Bums also includes valuable diaper care information on their website and for those who love a sale (who doesn't), they regularly have those too!
Head on over and check out the website to browse or place an order. You can also interact with Cozy Bums on Facebook. If you have any questions contact info is readily available on the website or Facebook and owner Kerri would be delighted to answer any questions you have!
Cozy Bums has offered to give one CANADIAN Mom of Two Mischievous Monkey's reader with $50 to spend on anything they sell. So be sure to come back between June 4th and June 15th to enter to win as part of the Fluffy Butts Cloth Diapering Giveaway. You will also be able to hop around and enter for other prizes from other participating Blogs.

Did you hear? May is Speech and Hearing Awareness Month!
- At least 3 out of 1000 babies born have some degree of hearing loss. This rate increases by 10 for infants receiving care in NICU due to their significant medical problems that put them at risk for hearing loss. Historically only high risk babies (such as low birth weight, preemies, NICU babies were screened for permanent hearing loss.
- Hearing Aids do not fix hearing as the inner ear is typically damaged with Sensorineural hearing loss. Hearing Aids simply amplify sounds so children still need therapy to learn to listen and speak. Hearing Aids do not work for all types of loss though, in some cases a cochlear implant is needed, in some surgery can be done to repair damage.
- Typical sounds and their decibel levels:
- Normal conversation: 60 dB
- Telephone dial tone: 80 dB
- City Traffic (inside car): 85 dB
- Snowmobile, motorcycle: 100 dB
- Rock Concert: 125 dB
- Gas Lawn Mower: 91 dB
