Default 2 random questions

1. Does anybody use & like Sam's or Costco's diapers?? (for newborns)

2. Where is a good place to buy a lamp shade? I'm looking for a plain shade to decorate myself for Bella's room. I was hoping for either a light green or an off white color.

TIA

No idea on the diapers, but Garden Ridge has a huge selection of lamp shades of all sizes/styles/colors/patterns. I'm not sure if there's one in Cedar Park, but there's one over here in La Frontera shopping center.

Well I have no idea on lampshades , but I do know about Costco diapers. They work just fine. Only thing is they start at size 3, so we bought the Huggies size 2 (which they also sell) for Tyler. He fit into those as soon as my stash of Swaddlers was up.

Never tried Costco diapers, but I got both kids' lampshades at good ol' Target and I decorated them myself to match their rooms.

I don't know about the lampshade, but it seems like you gots lots of great ideas already.

Costco sells Huggies and the Kirkland brand (which is made by huggies). Sam's Club sells Pampers. I don't think either one sells newborn sizes. I think they start at size 1. I am a total diaper snob!! I only like Pampers. Keegan leaked in anything else and I think Huggies smell funny. It is so much cheaper to buy them at a place like Sam's Club instead of Target though.

We use the Kirkland brand for Hayden and love them. If she moves up to size 6, we are back to Huggies, though (Kirkland only goes to 5). Pampers changed the Cruisers so they have this mesh liner and Hayden kept tearing it out and stripping down naked in the middle of the night because it bugged her. When we went back to the Kirkland ones, this stopped, thank goodness!

We got our lamp shade at Lowe's. Target is a good suggestion, too.

Well, I haven't used the Sam's Club or Costco diapers, but I have used BJ's brand. I think they seem run big but they work just fine. No leaks or anything.

Good luck finding a lampshade - sounds like there are some good suggestions.

I have used the Sam's club diapers a lot, I think they are comparable to Target and Walmart diapers. We use "cheap" diapers for daytime and pampers at night. I figure out the cost per diaper, and it was cheaper to go to Target and Walmart vs. Sam's. When u got 2 in diapers u need to get the cheapest!!!
