The greens of my garden...

this is a garden...


this is a garden on drugs...


Tim built me this nice planter box for a raised garden. We planted everything mid May. I cant imagine how big everything will be by the end of the summer. I just thought I'd go out today and take some fun pictures of all the green we have.






and a pretty rose...



and here, we have where used to lay a watermelon plant... up until YESTERDAY. I have no idea what happened to it. It is completly gone... GONE! Explain that!


The birdies have been gettin wild in this Corona bucket... that is now used as a, ahem... birdbath. Ok, I have a little hillbilly in me. Its my mom's fault!


and just a few more randoms...





HAVE A HAPPY WEEKEND EVERYBODY!!!

the dangerous life of...

ROCK HUNTING! I took these pictures of Allie a couple weeks ago when we went on a rock hunt. And when I say rock hunt, I mean a walk around the block, stealing rocks out of our neighbors yards. Allie has this "bike" that has a little basket in the front... perfect for rocks. She dressed herself...




I had to take Kole to the dr. this morning because he's got another ear infection (or probably the last one just never went away). I just took him in 2 weeks ago for the same thing. Poor little guy. Not such a happy camper today... Although this smile would lead you to believe differently...

2nd child syndrome...

I feel guilty if I dont blog about both kids. So, uh, well... Kole hasnt really done anything too amazing lately but here are some super cute pictures of the little guy...






CHECK OUT THAT SMILE!

a simple thing such as brushing your teeth...

who knew it could be SUCH A BIG DEAL! Ok, Allie will be 2 just next month (yikes!) and I just now thought of brushing her teeth. Yes, I know this should have started awhile ago but thats just the kind of mom I am... not saying Im a bad one. So while grocery shopping I picked her up some kiddy toothpaste and I let her pick out her own tooth brush. After prying the adult extra wide, extra stiff brissle one out of her hand, she settled on a bright green kiddy tooth brush with "vroom-vrooms" on it(i.e. Trains). I tried to help her and show her how to actually move the tooth brush back and forth on he teeth. She wasnt having it. I even tryed to show her how much fun it was to brush her tongue. Nope, not having any of it. Finally after 15 minutes of struggling with a toddler, I surrendered. What the hell, Im sure millions of kids have digested a whole bottle of tooth paste... right???
