Spring is Here!!!

We're so excited about the warm weather. Means new summer clothes, working in the yard and playing outside.

I've even been trying to find Belle a swim suit. Its not going well. I've got an almost three year old with no butt, an itty bitty waist and a long torso. I've already returned one suit. I exchanged it for this bikini from the Gymboree outlet, it's an 18-24mos (notice her "Feed the Children" gut). The tinkerbell suit is from walmart and it's a 3t! The bikini fits, although the top is a little tight getting on and off. The tinkerbell suit fits although it's a little short in length and I'm afraid of Belle's boobies hanging out by the end of summer. So I think I'll keep the 18-24mos suit and maybe exchange Tinkerbell for a 4T. Thats an insane difference in sizes.

While outside playing Belle has showed us a new trick of hers. She must of learned this at Parents Day Out. She's a pretty good somersaulter.

Here is how Nic improvised how to get stuff done when he had both kids while I was out shopping. Pretty funny. Notice Belle in front making sure she was in the pic.

Yeah, I'd say you need a bigger size in the Tinkerbelle suit. Unless you want Belle digging the suit out of her butt all summer, like she is in the picture : ) haha

Old Navy is great. Now my problem with a 5 1/2 year old is that everything is a bikini, and it is no longer cute, but pedophilish. I ended up with stuff from Target that is a "surf shirt" with a skort or shorts. Elise had a great Old Navy suit that lasted her 3 years somehow, before.
Love that baby butt of Ethan's.

Those surf shirts are my fav. Problem is that if I get the bottoms to fit, the shirt is too tight and pops over her big gut. =) She had one last year. I do like Old Navy's selection. Im so over this swimsuit stuff though, too hard.

That's some creative daddy time, Nic! He'll have to share his tips with Jeremy ;)
