i love it when baby cheeks are so heavy they turn down the corners of babies' mouths and make them look all surly. so cute. i have a question for you. back before my daughter was born i dyed several fitted diapers, tons of wipes and about 36 prefolds with lots of different colors of i-dye. but now, 6 months later they've all become several similar shades of dusky-greeny-dirty-pinkish looking. i'm bummed. how do you keep your dyed clothes from re-dying eachother as you wash them? any tricks during the dying process? i really want to dye some more onesies and shirts (and we're getting new diapers but i don't want to dye them again until i have a way to prevent all this color leaching...) and i though i'd see if you know any secret to "sealing" in the dye with anything safe-for-baby's-skin... ~ashley
