Wee Little Changes & Grovia Review and Giveaway!! ***CLOSED***



I love finding diaper stores that I didn't know about online! It's like a kid in a candy store, seriously! I get super excited! So when I came across Wee Little Changes I was instantly excited! The design and layout of the website was so attractive I had to check the rest out and see what they were all about!

Some awesome things about Wee Little Changes:

- They offer free shipping in the US!
- They have a rewards program called "Friends Tell Friends" and you can earn discounts and incentives with it!
- They have a newborn rental program!
- They sell SO many brands and types of cloth diapers and cloth diaper accessories!
- They have giveaways on their blog!!!


I was sent a Grovia AI2 diaper from Wee Little Changes to review! First I have to add how awesome their shipping is! I was shipped the diaper super fast, April sent me the tracking # as soon as she shipped it, and I received the diaper in record time!

I really like this diaper! I had never tried a Grovia before so I was anxious to give it a shot! I've never been a big fan of AI2s but if I were to build my stash with them, Grovia would be the kind I use! I love that the insert snaps in on both sides. That ensures it doesn't go anywhere so there aren't any leaks. I also really like the wide range of snaps at the waist. I think this is a great one-size diaper you can use from infant to toddler! And I have to add..how cute is this print! They have an awesome variety of colors and prints to choose from!!

Talk About Me Tuesday- Mommy's Peanut Gallery


Mommy’s Peanut Gallery


  1. What's your name? Amanda
  2. Tell me a bit about yourself and your family.  I'm a stay-at-home mommy to two little peanuts, Maria (15 months) and Clare (2 months).  I've been married to my husband Isaac for a little over 2 years, and we live in Minnesota, aka the frozen tundra of the U.S. (It's really not that bad, but it does get pretty cold this time of year!)  We enjoy going out to eat as a family (little Maria loves restaurants!), going boating and fishing on Minnesota's many lakes in the summer, and spending time with the grandparents (they love to spoil their granddaughters!).
  3. What's the name and link to your blog?  Mommy's Peanut Gallery, http://mommyspeanutgallery.blogspot.com/
  4. What is your blog about/What do you like to write about in your blog?  I like to blog about family, cloth diapering, my faith, cloth diapering, green living, and did I mention cloth diapering? Cloth diapering is a huge passion of mine, I love talking "fluff"!  You'll also find some of my random musings, such as embarrassing stories about me and my love/hate relationship with the postal service.
  5. What inspired you to start a blog?  I started out just reading blogs, mainly cloth diapering ones.  I had so much fun reading about cloth diapering and entering giveaways that I decided to give it a try myself!  I've always enjoyed writing, it's a way for me to relax and unwind.  Plus, it's nice to have something to do that doesn't involve taking care of my little peanuts!  As wonderful as they are, blogging gives me a nice break from them.
  6. Do you have any blogging pet peeves?  Captcha!  I absolutely despise typing in those silly non-words.  I'm also not a fan of blogs that have tons of advertising and buttons.  If it takes me forever to find your "follow" button amid all the ads, I probably won't follow!
  7. Do you have any big goals for your blog?  I just started seriously writing for my blog about three weeks ago, so I'm in the process of getting some reviews and giveaways lined up.  Other than that, I'm just hoping to build my following and make a few new blogger friends along the way!
    1. What are some of your favorite blogs to read?  I'm a regular reader of any blog that has to do with cloth diapers, and I've also started getting into some homeschooling blogs since I hope to homeschool my kids someday.

Fun With Food Friday! Crunchy Onion Chicken!

This recipe is super easy! My mother in law, Jeannie, sent it to me and it was a hit!!

Crunchy Onion Chicken


4 chicken breasts
Honey Mustard

 One Can Fried Onions

Coat chicken in honey mustard. Then roll in crushed fried onions (the ones you use to make green bean casserole). Bake in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes to one hour...until the juices run clear when you pierce the chicken with a fork.



This was really so easy to make! Its a little messy to prepare but that's not a big deal! When I gave dinner to Noah he said yum yum! So I know he enjoyed it! I liked it a lot too! I'm not big on onions but I like the french fried kind..and the honey mustard really added a nice flavor to it! The chicken was really juicy too! I used smaller strips because thats all I had thawed out, but I think the bigger chicken breasts would still be tender and juicy! 







Want to get 5 extra entries to any of my current giveaways? Send me a recipe that is loved in your family for me to review and share with all my followers!! Email me at mommyferg02@gmail.com! 


Visit Mama Chocolate for another great recipe!!
