The first year of a child's life is FULL of excitement as your baby explores the world around them.  I'm lucky enough to have twice the enchantment as Jane and Emma bobble around, grabbing, touching, tasting, hearing, and seeing everything around them for the very first time.  

When the girls were born, they had a 6 week stay in the NICU.  The hospital that we stayed in used Pampers Swaddlers, the favorite first diaper of so many mommies.  Being a BRAND NEW mommy, I didn't know the difference between any brand of diapers, but I was thankful that they had such small and soft diapers to cover their little heinies!

That's why, when Double Duty Divas asked mommy bloggers to create a post all about their baby's firsts along with a review of Swaddlers diapers, I jumped right on the bandwagon.  The thing that I love most about Pampers Swaddlers is that they are soft AND impossibly thin.  My girls NEVER have badonkadonks when they where Swaddlers!



Swaddlers make it easy to forget about leaks and drips and explosions when you're trying to focus on all of your baby's firsts.  Jane and Emma have already had so many great firsts, from SMILING, to LAUGHING, to ROLLING OVER and EATING!

Here Janey rolls over for the first time.  I love the look of pride on her face as she realizes that she's now facing a totally different way than she started!



In this video, Emma uses a spoon for the first time.  She literally just grabbed it out of my hand and started feeding herself like a big girl!



As Jane and Emma grow and start to move around independently, Swaddlers now grow with them.  The diapers are available through size 5, which means that they get to wear the softest diapers made by Pampers through their first year of life.  And to celebrate Swaddlers sizes 4 & 5, Pampers has 30 days of incredible giveaways and a grand prize of FREE Swaddlers diapers & wipes for a year. Join the celebration and enter the 30 days of sweeps on the Pampers Facebook page where you can win daily prize bundles, plus the grand prize of free Swaddlers diapers & wipes for one year!
