This is Levi in his basket. We received it a few days after the first one. Both he and mom are doing good. Mommy and Daddy pick him a middle name yesterday. They picked Christian. The other name they were considering was Caspian. So that makes baby number 8's full name,
Levi Christian McIntyre.

Today it was really nice outside. We went out to watch some people deliver building supplies to our neighbor. Then we played out there for awhile. After daddy got home from work we were out there 1-2 hours working on the rabbit area. Today our Baby Moses Basket came, but the roof was deformed. They our going to send us a new one. A "Baby Moses Basket" is a weaved, oval shaped basket with a small mattress and padded sides for a baby to lay in. They can lay in it till they roll over.

In the baking contest Daniel won first place in his category. Pete won second. I won second in a different category. Prizes were: A 1-pound circle of chocolate with a picture of a chocolate factory and the words 'Chocolate City' (the contest was in Burlington which is The chocolate city) and a lunch bag full of candy bars, chocolate milk powder, and a coupon for a free ice cream cone from Dairy Queen, McDonald's, & Culvers.
