***NEW***

So a lot of NEW things have been happening lately and thought I would share some of them with all of you:)
*NEW thing #1: Brock's cousin, Dan and his wife AnnDee just had their 1st baby boy last week! His name is Zachary. But let me tell ya...this boy was a whopping 10 lbs. 11 oz.!! He was a HOSS! Here we thought Isaac was huge and he was (only) 9.3! LOL! Mr. Zach already has huge thighs and forearms...it is hilarious! But he is one beauty of a boy:) Thank the Lord AnnDee had a C-Sect. done too!! Whew that would have been rough!! So we're very excited to have a new Reiff baby on the Maust side...congrats you guys!
Here's Brock's cousin, Dan holding Isaac and Brock holding Baby Zach!
*New thing #2: Isaac has a NEW awareness and may I add, fondness of his cousin, Lincoln:) These 2 are just under 5 mo. apart from each other so we know they'll probably be pretty close. But this is fun to watch because before Isaac completely ignored Lincoln, and Linc just wanted his attention so bad! It was quite humorous! But all of sudden, Isaac will stay where he's at to either share or take away toys from his new bud:) (This could get interesting!)
Another reason I know Isaac loves Linc now is because my son has the weirdest fettish with rubbing ears! I have no idea why, but he does it when we hold him, when he's tired or just because he wants to know we're there.
So....we have proof Isaac likes Linc now as you will observe in the pics below!
First...notice how Linc is catching up with Isaac in height?! So crazy!

Here they are actually playing together at the exersaucer:) It looks like baby talk going on! hee hee!

And here, Isaac made his move! He found Linc's ears! Ha ha! We know it's love:)

...and back to playing together....

...but Isaac could not resist...he had to rub those ears again!! (mind you the whole fam was cracking up at this!) So now we know....Isaac has a NEW love for cousin, Linc:) It's great!

*NEW thing #3: I have a new wardrobe!! Well...it's new to me because it's maternity clothes for summer!! BUT ...the catch is they are of course borrowed! Ha ha! Yeah, we do NOT have funds to just go buy me clothes...and of course my son has to look good! That's how it goes! But still...it feels like I have new clothes cuz I can now wear things that will cover me up right this summer! With Isaac I had a fall/winter/spring pregnancy, and this one is completely opposite. So thanks to 2 great girlfriends, they supplied me with their summer stuff! Thanks Melissa and Jamie! I'm very excited about this!

So here is my "section" in my closet of summer maternity shirts:)

And...all shorts, capris, jeans, dress pants...I am good to go!

New thing #4: My part time job @ the Nut Shoppe now moved it's store to a NEW location on Main Street! And I have NEW hours to work this summer which is Mondays and Saturdays instead of just Saturdays! We were very excited about the move at the beginning of the month and the store is awesome! I completely recommend that you come on by to visit if you have a sweet tooth:) We went from a tiny hole in the wall on a side street to a huge place that is about 4 times bigger...no joke! No more climbling up a ladder into the ceiling to get to our storage:) Big plus! Here are some pics of the new place!

Look for the black and tan canopy right across Main St. from Newell's and just south of the Electric Brew. The Staff: Donna (employee), Pat (employee & Danae's mom), Danae (owner), me (employee) and my Mom, Bobbie(employee)
Here is the view from the door when you walk in.
...and a view from the back of the store.
Includes a fireplace...so cute! AND that's right...there's an ice cream cooler! We have wonderful ice cream:)
What would a Nut Shoppe be without...of course...NUTS!!
...and chocolate covered NUTS! :)
The famous Jelly Belly wall! Yup...every flavor is right here!
...and last but not least...the famous hand-dipped creams...made right here in the store! Very yummy stuff I tell ya!
So that's my NEW place of work until my next baby comes:) Hope you liked the tour!

And now for the finale....

NEW thing #5 is......

ISAAC'S NEW TANLINE!! ha ha ha ha! We had him air out after he had gone swimming and he just loved going streaking:) My kid is crazy sometimes!
