I found that this Link is a great tutorial for making a great looking pocket cloth diaper. It is very easy and the instructions on the page are very straight forward. I love this pocket and that is all that I have been making for my son the last few times.
Save yourself a ton of money! Pockets dry very quick also!!!

The Family Camping Handbook: Real Food in the Big Woods
The Family Camping Handbook: Real Food in the Big Woods was a free kindle book when I wrote this post.
Camping is a frugal family vacation and a wonderful tradition for many,
but it's not as easy as making a reservation at a hotel. Here's your
basic guidebook to a successful trip to the woods and back, nourishing
your family with real food all the way.
The Family Camping Handbook will:
* Help families with little ones survive and even thrive out in the woods.
* Share basic steps to preparing for and enjoying time in the back woods - tent camping strategies for rookies.
* Provide recipes and campfire techniques to conquer the temptation to buy a few packages of hot dogs and white bread buns and call it "food."
If you're a camping rookie and interested in tent camping, this book is for you.
If you are an experienced camper but new to real food living, or you just wish you had more ideas for whole foods camping fare, this book is for you.
If you camped before having children and have always wanted to try camping as a frugal family vacation but are nervous because you have little ones, whether they’re babies, toddlers, or preschoolers, this book is for you.
You CAN take your babes and your real food to the woods and truly enjoy it, and The Family Camping Handbook will show you how.
With over 35 whole foods camping recipes plus techniques for campfire cooking, menu plans, grocery shopping lists, and ideas to "healthify" many standard camping foods, you won't go hungry out in that big, wide wilderness. You may never want to come home to your regular kitchen!

Frugal Organizing - Kid's Room
I have been using rubber made totes in my Little Man's room for all of his toys, but I always noticed that he never really got down into the box and was having trouble finding certain toys. The totes were really just too deep. So I went to the local grocery store and got about 15 good boxes. None used for meat!! They were FREE!! I then went to Dollar Tree and got 3 rolls of this cute wrapping paper to cover them with. Cute and only cost me $3.00 for everything that I needed. Next - We had to get to work.
So we dumped out the 4 rubber made totes! Little Man had fun with that. I ended up doing all of the sorting - he had too much fun playing with toys "that he hadn't seen in a million years!". Took me a while, but I eventually got everything sorted and only used 6 boxes. Now he has a box for each thing that he plays with the most - anything else was left in the rubber made totes and put out in the shed. So now he has a box for his : Army men
Cars
Dinosaurs
Animals
Balls
Anything Else
His room has never been this clean. Now when he gets done with the toys that he is playing with it much easier for him to pick them up. He actually is having fun making sure that everything gets put in the right box.
This could easily be done for any room of the house. Being organized doesn't have to cost a fortune. Get some free boxes and wrapping paper and that is it.
