Yesterdays Project

Yesterday I spent the morning at my friend Lorisa's having coffee and chatting, the boys had a good time playing together. In the afternoon I prepped 12 new prefolds for Prestyn. They came to me like this:

I boiled 2 pots of water with a squirt of dawn:

Then I put 3 prefolds into each pot & boiled them for 20 minutes. I had to stir them occasionally and press them back down into the water:

When they were done boiling I wrung them out with a pair of tongs on the side of the pot (notice my sweet little man watching the action):

I put them into a laundry basket lined with a towel to absorb some of the moisture:

Then I did round 2. This is how much smaller they were after boiling:

What Prestyn ended up doing during all of this:

And then I had to wash them 2x's in the machine on hot & dry on hot, here's the finished product:

At this point I realized I ordered the wrong size, UGH, but hey, at least I have some diapers for whenever we have another baby! LOL
