    Remember pinked edge diapers?

    How I loathed pinked edge didies!

    The edges were forever frayed and sported loose threads! So unsightly.

    And true honest-to-goodness metal topper diaper pins!

    Used to run the business end of the diaper pin through my hair a few times before pinning the diapers! The pins used to go through the thickest/bulkiest of diapers like butter!

    And when it came to the old days of cloth diapers, specialty diaper washing detergent was in!









    My mom used Dreft with my baby siblings!

    How about the old vinyl car seats, when it was super-hot out and sitting down on the seat would scald the backs of your legs! Ouch! I remember it well!
