I'm dying for some Ooga Booga snaps to go with the PUL I bought.

Making diapers is hard work. It takes me about 2 days, because Alex can smell when I'm using my sewing machine. Or maybe he can smell when I use my rotary cutters. Either way, he always wakes up and wants attention when I'm either cutting or sewing. I really want snaps, because I've been far too lazy to try to sew Velcro on. I keep hearing how much of a pain it is. Maybe I should just try it. But I don't want to.
I've been trying to get GW to say yes to me getting a pair of snap pliers, but he's not convinced I need them.
Yet.
Last night, I threw the fitted I had just finished at him, because he wasn't paying attention to my squeeful happiness. I understand, the Star Wars game he was playing was far more important, but he NEEDED to see my diaper. "Uh huh, yep, it's awesome, hun," while not looking at it was just not cutting it for me. And I pulled the wife card. "PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR WIFE!" Then he laughed and actually took 5 seconds to look at the diaper. I'd put a picture up of the diaper I made, but I used it. It's now festering with my FuzziBunz in the pail. Today, I finished another with a super-cute pirate print from Joann's. Or, it would be finished, but I need to put in the elastic.
I didn't mention, but MY WASHING MACHINE IS BUSTED!!! It's been broken since Friday afternoon. TJ came bursting into the bedroom while I was trying to coax Alex into sleeping with some boobie time.
TJ: "The washer's broken!"
Me: "How do you know?"
TJ: "THERE'S WATER EVERYWHERE!!!"
Me: "Like, how much 'everywhere'?"
TJ: "LOTS!!! IN THE HALL!!!"
Well, crap.
At that point, I had to put Alex down and check out the situation. There was indeed "lots" of water in the hallway. It took me almost two hours to clean up the mess. GW was en route to home (I called him b/c this was the worstest disaster EVER), and he took over Alex while I wasted paper towels, because we ran out of rags to sop up all the water. The peeps from Sears told GW they don't have a technician available until Wednesday morning.
Sunday, we went and washed the diapers at his sister's house, where we watched football, and tried to keep her puppy from eating Alex. Yeah, so, I need more diapers. Which is why I'm sewing fitteds.
