All we do is eat and work!!!

Olivia is just now getting to experience the wonders of food other than milk. At 5 months she is more than ready for it, and now it seems all she does is eat. Yesterday before bed she at 1/2 container of sweet potatoes, a 1/2 container of peaches mixed with rice(it was pretty thick) and then nursed on both sides FOREVER! She has also discovered her tounge, so this picture is the best of both worlds for her.
Yesterday the kids asked for another set of toy dolls that they love, so I told them had to do some jobs to earn it. It required that they each to 10 jobs for me. This morning Jed wanted his toy, and I told him he had to finish his jobs, and that he could make his bed as one of them. He had no desire to make his bed, so Grandma found a job of cleaning up spots on the floor. He was all over that job, and it was too cute to watch.
