Deuce Bigalow Kekoa Gigolo

Let me start out by saying I have the happiest baby in the world! He wakes up like this every morning! The one in polka dot onesie was yesterday morning and the one with the paw print was this morning. Kekoa will be 8 weeks tomorrow!! ahhhhh What a perfect way to start my day. :)

He is sooo Happy! I sing to him every morning and play with his little chubby cheeks and he loves it! He was trying to talk to me again this morning all morning! Once I figure out how to load videos on here I will post one of him making all his cooing and aweing. He is so funny!




Okay, now for his diaper. I made it. Yes I did. I cut out fabric, patterns, pinned and sewed. I seriously am the most impatient person ever, so being as impatient as I am... I didnt want to spend time marking my measurements that the pattern so easily has MEASURED OUT FOR ME. And has clearly marked on the pattern the exact measurement so that I can transfer it to my fabric. In my mind I think, you really want me to get up off the floor and go get a pen that will show up on this fabric.. and make markings on the fabric?? Like reaaallly? Nope.. I'll just wing it. So I did. And this is what I ended up with.











Yeah. I don't suggest "winging it" unless you want your baby in a little cheeky cheetah diaper. Oh and let me explain the cheetah print deuce bigalow male gigolo diaper.. AC LOVES cheetah print. And he actually has his very own pair of cheetah print fleece shorts that he wears to the lake every year. He actually just loves anything animal print.

But anyways, the pocket actually turned out right! I have the idea of it down and it really wasn't difficult at all. Now I just need ot measure and hem right and it will be perfect. I was only supposed to do a 1/4" seam allowance and I ended up doing a full inch all the way around... which is why its so narrow and not covering his little cheeks at all.. like I said.. Deuce Bigalow Kekoa Gigolo. Haha I sewed in a prefold with a soaker pad, a waterproof covering and the cheetah fleece on both sides so its soft on his bottom and on the outside as well. I used elastic around the legs and a small horizontal piece on the back. The elastic on the back is to keep inserts from sliding up when I put them in the pocket. I didn't attach any velcro because we obviously won't be using this one and I don't want to waste it. So lets hope the next one will be even better! No more Gigolo for Koa.
