Watch out!

Nothing is safe! Lincoln has figured out how to crawl and he is fast! He also loves to put things into his mouth, so we are picking up about 50 times a day it seems. He also finally started eating rice cereal and loves it. It took him until about 7 months to figure out how to swallow, but now he can't get enough. As a result he's getting quite chunky. He is wearing some of the same clothes as Adam and is almost as big. He is still so loved, I thought the novelty of having a baby would wear off, but all the kids still love to hold and play with him. He is quite spoiled and has all of the kids at his beck and call.

Who Scoops Poop?

My boys are outside and I just heard them arguing over who gets to scoop up the doggie do in the yard. Both of them are WANTING to be the scoopers. I'm getting ready to water the lawn and when I asked them to clean it up, they started whining about whose turn it was. So I said whoever cleans up the most dog poop will get a treat. Next thing you know I'm hearing, "I found it first, I get to scoop it up." and "I had the shovel first." and the best one, "Mom, he's not letting me clean up the poop?" I just had to laugh.

A modest Swimsuit-- Finally

I hate swimsuits! It has always been impossible to find a modest swimsuit, and even ones that are "modest" leave me with plenty of skin showing to feel uncomfortable and get sunburned. I finally found a swimsuit I am excited about. It is from OhanaSwimwear and is modeled after a shorty wetsuit. It not only covers all the "trouble" spots, it will keep my shoulders from frying! It's not the cheapest swimsuit I've found, it's $80, but I've decided it is worth putting my money out there for modesty! This is the cutest, most modest suit I've found. I won't look like everyone else at the pool, but different is good!
