A little sewing.

Found some moments where everyone was asleep and managed to finish up some diapers I had started before Evangeline was born. 
I made this one

and this one (yes they're identical)
and Landon suggested her posing with Piggy.
I also finished a diaper for my next door neighbor who had her baby yesterday!  It was supposed to be finished for her baby shower, but life got in the way. 
I'm really liking this way to make fitted cloth diapers.  I make them with a pocket in the back and I "stuff" it with one of my many small inserts that I already have.  It saves on drying time, keeps build up/stink issues away and I can put in as many inserts as she need for naps or overnight.  I don't add velcro or snaps because they fit longer if I just use the snappi to fasten them.  Not to mention it is cheaper and quicker to leave those off. 
Evangeline seems to have grown out of all the small fitteds I made so I am planning on cutting out several today.  I really should have made the tabs longer!  For some reason, I used a pattern with shorter tabs...not sure where that one even came from.  Maybe I need to declutter my pattern binder along with the rest of the house!
