So I have been a little internet shopping happy the last few weeks and have bought a few things.
When we moved into this house and we got the living room set up there was a space by the TV that needed something on the wall. I knew I wanted to put a few pictures there, but was waiting until Will was born so the pictures would be updated. Needless to say it has been 7 months since we moved in and there still isn't any pictures on the wall.
Back in late June we got some family pictures taken and Canon had a big photo shoot. I have always wanted some canvases made, so that is what I did with the new photos.
I did some shopping around on line and ended up ordering from here and feel like I got a pretty good deal. They have some summer deals going on. I am supposed to get them in the mail this week! I can't wait! I will post pictures after I receive them and get them on the wall.
Here are the two pictures that I chose to get canvases of.


I also have done some swim suit shopping online. I was totally dreading this summer being in a bathing suit. I knew we would be taking Canon to the pool a lot so this year I wanted to buy a good bathing suit that I felt comfortable in. I was introduced to Lime Ricki Swimwear (here) last summer but never ended up ordering anything. This year I went back to the website and chose a swim suit and I love it! Lime Ricki is all about modest swimwear for women which I am all about! (Make sure to order a size up. They say it runs true to size, but I think their sizes are on the small side.) I actually feel really comfortable in it, so I ordered another one last night (we are headed to the beach next week). I got free shipping and 10% off of my order both times I ordered. If you use the code JENSWIM you get 10% off.
Here are the swimsuits I chose
This is the first one I ordered! I also got the gray skirt. I wear it in the pool as well. This suit is made very well and is pretty comfortable.

This is the suit I just ordered. I got the black skirt to go with the top. I already have black bottoms and also have another tankini I can wear the black skirt with.

What are some things you have bought lately or made that you love?

I love the swimsuits you chose and feel the same way. This summer more than ever, I feel tired of tugging at suits that don't feel as modest as I would like. I am definitely going to look into those for next summer! Also, did you ever find a backpack for Canon? We are looking to switch from diaper bag to backpack soon and have been looking at those Stephen Joseph backpacks. They are pretty cute for toddlers (and can be thrown in the wash), if you haven't looked at those yet.
Thanks Kassi. I ended up ordering him a skip hop backpack (the elephant) and lunch bag. I am also wanting to find another bag as a diaper bag. I did look at the Stephen Joseph bag. I am also thinking about getting one. They are cute, but very small compared to the diaper bag we are using now.
