Today I finally finished a diaper that I had been working on since last week. It is an embroidered ABU diaper. It turned out great, so I can't wait to start on the next one that I have embroidered, and is just in need of snaps. I was also able to get all but the elastic into a pair of jeans for my son, James. He had grown out of all his previous pairs, and I thought it was high time he had a nice pair of jeans. Tomorrow I'm starting on a custom order that came in on Saturday, and hope to have that done by the end of the week.

On a roll.
Today is the last day of the "stash contest" on Diaper Swappers. The theme behind it was that all the participats got points for using up yardages of fabric, but lost points for fabric they bought during the game. Well, since I keep Sunday's for family sewing, I had to bust my butt to get some sewing done yesterday. So, I managed to finish four newborn diapers, a pocket diaper for Justin, and a pajama top for James. Today I'm going to finish a pair of jeans for James. I got them cut yesterday, but stopped working on them so that I could work on some Air Force diapers. I got the Air Force diapers cut, and embroidered, and the studs through one of them, but finishing them will have to wait until tomorrow now.
I also have a little girls fleece jacket that I need to finish up, so I'll likely sew the buttons on that today, and call that done. I have another jacket that I want to do. It will be a nice burgundy woven suede, with a matching lining.
I will also be embroidering a shirt tomorrow for a trade that I'm doing. I have one more shirt left that I can embroider, so I might pick a diaper for that to go with.
In Army life, Jake was supposed to get the list this weekend, of the options we have for our next duty station. It is 9 in the morning and still no list. He meets with his branch manager tomorrw. So, I guess we'll see what our options are tomorrow, and then text back and forth about what we want, and what we want to avoid.

On the 7th Day he rested
Well, it's Sunday morning, which in our family means church, and family time, Today after church, we are going to JoAnns so that I can see about some buttons for my jacket, and then we are going to come home and clean up the rest of the Christmas decorations. Then, maybe if there is time, I'll sew a pair of jeans for James. He's in bad need of them, as he's grown out of all his previous pairs. I picked up the denim a while ago, so that will be nice to get done.
I started working on a newborn diaper last night, and had the outer, and hidden layer cut, and two of the six snaps put on. Then Jake decided it was time for him to go to bed, and well, it's no fun being up late by yourself, so I called it a night.
On the agenda for tomorrow. . . go to the RE's office and see if I've ovulated, if so, we're going to try for baby J #3. We're also waiting to find out where the next possible PCS locations are, and that list should be e-mailed to Jake within the next two weeks. Then, at the end of February, we will find out where we are headed. I'm hopeful that it will be someplace nice. The last place I kind of liked, and miss at times, and Leavenworth has it's perks as well, so only time shall tell.
