I will try just using the wet wipes instead of washing them at the sink too. I was getting a washcloth dripping wet and sort of squeezing it on them as I washed. They seemed to like the warm water washing but they did shiver after, no matter how quickly I started the blowdrying. So, maybe it is not such a good idea.
I know they don't smell as wonderful as they would if momma was doing the diapering.....but, the puppy wipes do help. I did keep a blow dryer handy just in case I over did it with the baby wipes (and boy did I go through those. Got them at Costo and went through them by the cases). As far as taking them outside, you just don't want to take any chances with them getting sick. You've gone through so much in keeping these wee ones alive, just wait until they've received at least 2 innoculations and then don't take them to public places until they are fully innoculated.

I live in Southern California and have the great weather too, but mine don't even go outside until they go to their forever homes.
