Sewing in progress.......

I started sewing last week and am completely engulfed in projects right now. I finished 3 diapers and have about 7 more I think. Then I am starting a completely crazy project which I will share with you at a later time. But I am very excited about it. I want to make at least one little dress for her but really she doesn't need it. For all of you thinking I am going to run out of dresses for Fashion Friday, think again. My husband counted her dresses 2 weeks ago and she had 95 dresses!!! And that was 2 weeks ago. Since then I have gotten 3 more dresses from my mom and another shower gift. She probably won't have anything to wear once she is out of 24 months though. I hope by then I have mastered the art of making clothes. I hope to make most of her dresses by then. I am in Crazy Craft mode right now. My creativity and inspiration is flourishing right now. I must be nesting or something. Too bad I don't feel like cleaning. I do have a rearranging thing going on though. I have rearranged the school room and Riley's room in the last week or so. I really want to tackle the pantry and the kitchen next. I am trying to switch everything to totally glass and get rid of some of my plastic stuff. But that's a whole seperate post too. I have so many things going on right now. We are having the youth group over next weekend for a cookout and a campfire and I am joining the leadership team for the youth group. I hope to provide some of their Sunday dinners for them too. God is blessing us on a daily basis these days and I am so grateful. It really looks like we will be traveling right around the second week in June! Of course I am totally guessing, but that's what I think. It seems as thought the travel calls are coming the very end of the month and the first week of the month. Although with my 2 friends that got their EP's within 9 days of being submitted, who knows what will happen. I have also heard from another friend who is in Korea right now that Eastern is expecting 30 families to travel in May to pick up their children. They must have submitted a huge batch at the end of March. It is really exciting to watch everything unfold this time. I have no worries or anxiety and I LOVE IT!!! So I am off to do my Monday shopping and I'm gonna stop at Goodwill and look for some fabric for my next crazy craft. Happy Monday!!!
