It has been a long 4 days. My MIL was in town and oh the stress that was in this house. Not fun, but it's over and that's all I'm going to say though I could blog on, and on for hours.
Some good news is that Mr. Man and I went to see a movie for the first time in who knows how long. We went to see Pirates 3 and it was really good!! I give it 2 thumbs up. Much better than the second movie. Does anyone know if they're making a 4th? I thought I heard they were. We need to look more often to see if there are regular 8pm showings at the main movie theater in town because it's the perfect time to go to a movie. Ari's already sleeping (in theory) and a few hours watching Eli is no hard task yet. Maybe we can do that more often. Ahhh, the dream world I live in.
Diaper news: Most of the stuff I put up for sale has sold!! Even the gDiaper covers that I didn't think would sell have. Now there's just a Swaddlebees and 2 XS covers left to go. All proceeds will be going to buying a pattern and fabric to make some of my own. I hope that process works out once I get everything. I wish I could use the serger better, but at least I should be able to make some inserts with it. I lucked out and got some pretty red serger thread and some wooly nylon at Hancock's the other day. Now I just need to practice adjusting the tension and making curves then I might be willing to try a diaper.
I also need to practice zig zagging on my Singer. Sewing diaper elastic it tricky on its own but with this machine it's even trickier. I can't seem to sew slowly when using the zig zagger. It always goes super-fast and I have no real control. Practice, and getting some tips from where I bought it, will help a lot.
Right now it's time for some cheesecake with raspberries, and some knitting while everyone is sleeping. That's the plan at least who knows if it will happen.

I'm trying to figure out the zig zag attachment too. It's trickier than my old machine that had it built in. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet.
Good luck with the serger. I have such a love/hate relationship with mine.
Can't wait to see what you produce with it all! There is a lot of PUL and other diapering materials for sale or trade in the craft section of Diaper Swappers.
