- Before we had AJ,
Seth and I used to be quite adventurous.
- Yeah.
- And also before Covid. Stop sign.
- Sorry, it's like, hidden behind a tree.
- We'd go on our adventures and we'd start early
and we would go get some coffee.
So then now,
we try to just recreate that on his days off.
Just go getting coffee in the morning as a fam.
And then we just go back to the house.
- Because every day with you guys is an adventure.
- Ohhhhhhh!!!
Hey guys, my name is Shayla.
Welcome to my channel.
If this is your first time here,
I talk about motherhood. I talk about pregnancy.
And we do things pretty naturally.
If you're into that, please subscribe.
Today, I want to talk to you
about a day in the life... but
out of the house, because leaving the house
with a child is a lot different
than living in the house without a child,
or pre-child... or whatever.
It's this hard battle in your head,
because sometimes you're like I just need
to leave the house for my sanity.
But what's going to be more taxing?
Gather everything and get out of the house?
Or just staying here and just sitting inside?
Today, we're getting out!
Today, we're doing it!
Today, we're going outside!
You've got Seth in the background making a protein shake.
- Oh yeah!
- There it is.
I- Do you want to make me-
First things first, I am on Instagram
Like every day on stories,
so if you want to see kind of the daily stuff,
head over to Instagram, if you liked the content here,
please subscribe! My goal is a 100K!
It's so funny because I'm always like,
I want to get that number. And then the day comes
that I hit a 100 thousand,
...literally nothing's different.
Oh my goodness. Wowza!
- Sweetness for my sweetness.
- Okay. I'm going to tell you what's in my bag
for leaving the house.
I have a bag like this and I love it
because I can see everything that's inside.
For this video, we're going to start
with the obvious. Dipes and wipes.
You got the wipes obviously, and then dipes.
As you know (or maybe you don't)
we do cloth diapering 80% of the time,
disposables 20% of the time.
We do disposables overnight, when we're traveling
when we're just out and about all day long
and it's just easier.
Well, this video is sponsored by Pampers
because they just came out with a new hybrid
that's half cloth and half disposable.
I like working with companies
that are doing things to make the world better.
So when Pampers said that they came out with a hybrid,
okay I'm in! Because I think a lot of you
are going to like this.
This will be perfect for somebody
that does 80/20 like us.
So instead of using the disposables,
you'd use the hybrid because it's 25% less waste.
It would be perfect for somebody
that doesn't have a washer and dryer machine.
And so the cloth diapering and adding
an entire load of laundry just seems ridiculous,
but they're eco-conscious
and they want to do what they can.
Or if you're kind of like,
into the cloth diapering thing,
and your partner's like NO WAY,
this would be a really easy way
to ease you into it.
Let me tell you a little bit about it.
So these hybrid diapers have the reusable shell,
and then the disposable insert.
Let's talk about the disposables.
These gave me flashbacks to,
after you gave birth and the hospital
gave you these giant pads that were as big
as your head. I think I've got a clip of that.
This is the pad that they
give you in the hospital. Oh my God.
These are made of the same thing
that Pampers Pure is made out of it.
I wrote this down. No fragrance, no parabens,
no latex. Pampers pure diapers (size 1-5).
I love it. These shells, lions and tigers and bears,
cute pink ones. When I go out,
I like to set up two. I get this liner all set up
and I put that in my bag. So when this gets dirty,
I just take the whole thing off.
And then I just grab the one that's already ready
and put it on her.
Bada Bing, Bada, Boom!
It's like super fast.
If you're at home, disposable goes with the wipes,
dipes and wipes in the trash.
And this can go in with their clothes,
because it doesn't get all poopy.
They also have something called size, set, snap.
You can adjust the elasticity in the leg.
And then you set the liner.
You snap it shut. I will show you that
when we're out and about.
What else is in the bag? It's summertime here.
So we obviously have sunblock and a hat.
My preferred hat has a chin strap,
but it's currently MIA...
So this is the one that we put on her
and hope that the wind doesn't take it,
or she doesn't take it off herself.
A wet bag. If there's not a trash bag around,
I can put the disposable in there.
If she gets really wet, I can put her clothes in there.
I like to pack an entire change of clothes.
In case she sits in the mud,
or she spills food all over her,
or whatever. A sippy cup.
These are amazing because they don't really spill..
unless she throws it from her high chair
then it will spill a little bit on the floor.
Band-aids. I think I use band-aids
more than most people. Oh, and then snacks.
Once you get all of that done.
Oh yeah, I need stuff for myself as well.
I have this giant gallon water bottle.
My fanny pack, my keys, my phone, Air Pods,
whatever else I need goes right in here.
Pro tip is to get all of this stuff packed
while she's in her nap.
So I'm going to go to that right now!
Question for you. If you were going to pack
a diaper bag for the day,
what would you put in it?
- Diapers, wipes, water, snacks for her,
and maybe like a change of clothes.
- Okay. That's pretty good.
AJ. Should we go out? Is it time?
But first, cheese.
- Cheese
- Seth, but first?
- But first, let's get a coffee.
- It's a phrase.
- Oh, but first.
- Coffee.
We're just going to go grab a coffee, come back.
I can't unlock the door.
Two arms. You don't have shoes!
It's all right. Ready? Sit back.
Thank you.
- There you are.
- Perfect.
Before we had AJ,
Seth and I used to be quite adventurous.
And also before COVID. Sometimes I associate it
just with AJ but really it was Covid
as well. Stop sign.
- Sorry, it's like hidden behind a tree.
- We'd go on our adventures and we'd start early
and we would wake up
and we would go get some coffee.
- Those were the days.
So then now, we try to just recreate that
on his days off, just go getting coffee
in the morning as a fam,
and then we just go back to the house.
- Because every day with you guys
is an adventure.
- Oh, so good.
So what typically happens right as I'm about to leave
the house is I realize I haven't fed her.
Blow, it's hot.
We just did a quick meal. She's currently
on an eating strike, an eating solids strike.
So I'm hoping that passes soon. She just wants
to eat cheesy bunnies.
I'll put a sprout on AJ's head.
And now whenever I do it,
her face is hilarious to me.
Ready, one, two, three, unless she doesn't cry,
and four. All done.
Look at those curls in the back though.
Look at those curls in the back.
Sometimes I think she looks like a balding man.
With like, the side hair, and then
like nothing on top.
- Can you blow me a kiss?
Thank you.
- Good job!
- Thank you.
- Are you just like, you have your parking space
and that's it? Because your passing a lot
of parking spaces.
- I thought you wanted to walk up by the thing
But I'll park right here.
I wasn't recording any of that.
- Okay.
I think I'm just going to bring an outfit,
a diaper, and an insert,
and leave the rest in the car.
- Too easy.
- Oh and maybe the wipes.
- Dipes, wipes, and sacks.
- Do you see her in there?
- Hey you. Are you ready?
- Are we going to go on a walk. Where's Dada?
Snacks. Did you get snacks for the road?
Here we go.
She's got her feet up on the thing.
Wow, look at the beach. There's so many people.
Good thing I brought the wipes.
- Ooh.
Is it cold?
No ice cream sandwich? No?
Seth and I are doing a little challenge
where we're having no beer,
no dairy, and no sugar, so.
- No alcohol.
- Right, no alcohol. But that looks enticing.
- Yeah.
- What are you doing? Did you get mud?
- Seth I almost ran it over
with the stroller, but luckily,
mom's got an eye for turtles!
- Turtle, turtle.
- It's the turtle.
- Yeah.
- Let her hold it.
- She's going to crush it.
- I don't think she'll crush it.
- Do you have something to wash her hands?
- Uh-huh. Wipes.
- Gentle. Hi.
- Say bye bye.
Seth's going to save the turtle.
Is it all gone?
Do you want another one? Here you go.
Can you go- (blowing)
- What are you doing?
- She started getting real fussy.
We're about at bed- nap time.
I'm going to show you, before I left the house,
I put this together. So you've got the insert,
you got the insert, and then you've got the
shell. Let's put it on.
I'm going to change her first,
so you can stop it.
We're getting about to a nap time.
(baby crying)
She's a little fussy. I can't do it while
the camera is on, but Cocomelon on Spotify
chills her right out, right Seth?
- Yeah.
- Yeah. So I'm going to turn this off
and turn on some Cocomelon.
And then we'll be home in a minute,
and then we're going to take a little snooze.
- Me too.
- Oh yeah?
- Yep.
- Pampers calls it Size, Set, Snap.
I was going to show you at the park,
but AJ got fussy because we were
pushing her bed time. So, here we are.
The size refers to the elasticity
in the leg band. And then you'll see
you can adjust the scrunchiness of the leg band.
It's like a bra strap and you just adjust it.
So that's the size.
The Set, you will take a disposable,
take these off. I like to lay this flat,
so that it goes on one side, that goes
on the other side, and then give it a pull,
so that all kind of scrunches together.
So it's like a double gusset.
And then you go to the snap.
I remember when I first started cloth diapering,
this to me was insanely intimidating.
You've got three dots, we'll talk about this
in a second. You're going to take this bottom
dot on these lines, and this bottom dot
on these lines. So right now,
AJ is like, here.
So put that there, and then the other two
just kind of lay right there. Super easy.
You put this one on the third one,
or wherever your baby is.
And then these just lay down.
We have this other little piece right there.
That's if you're baby is super tiny,
it'll overlap and get even tighter.
Pro tip, because these are sticky,
and because your baby is in them all night
and they're wet, and they're warm,
the sticky part is like this much, right.
I like to fold it over a little bit, so it's
a little less sticky on both sides.
Give it a pull,
and then when you remove it, to prevent
some of that stickiness, you start in the middle
and you go really slowly.
If you do get any sticky on either side,
you can just take a baby wipe,
and the wipe it off, and then stick
another one on there.
Size, set, snap.
♪ Size, set, snap. Size, set, snap. ♪
Size, set, snap.
♪ Yeah, here we go. ♪
♪ Size, set, snap. ♪
♪ Uh-huh. Size, size, size, set, set, set, snap. ♪
- Who knew I was getting all that!
- Woop woop!
- So that was a day in the life
of going outside the house with a one year old.
I hope you all enjoyed this video.
