We recently started a new "incentive program" in our house to reward good behavior. Livie earned stars on days that she was good and lost stars on days she was a little "naughty." We told her that once she earned 3 stars that we'd make homemade ice cream. (We hadn't ever made it before, so this was a pretty exciting prospect.)
As you can see from the photos below, Livie earned her 3 stars and got her ice cream. She and Sienna both love it.

 |
| AAAHH! YUMMY!!! |

| "Could life get any better than this?" |
On another note, the doctor says that the new baby could come "any day." If we hadn't heard that for 5 weeks before Livie was finally induced, we might think the baby may be here early. Abby has less than a month left...she will be full term (37 weeks) the first of next week. She is very much looking forward to holding the baby in her arms instead of in her belly! :)
