my GARDEN grows!

     Thought I would give a little garden update! Jayson and I are ecstatic..are garden is GROWING! hehe I have been pretty hopeful, but at times I thought it was all going to die...We have lots of healthy tomatoes, carrots, squash, cucumbers and some cilantro.

    I am most excited for the tomatoes! I think if they can continue to grow and do well then we may have more than we can eat.... so I will get to try out my canning skills...

 

Angel baby

     

 I really do feel like Ty is such an angel. I love him so much and enjoy every minute of being a mommy. I love to give little man baths and watch him kick his feet and splash water all over me. I love taking him to the store...he smiles and giggles at everyone who looks at him. Or by the time we get five minutes into shopping he is zonked out snoring so loud that the people on opposite aisles can hear him! I love rocking him to sleep...watching his eyes get droopier and droopier fighting it as long as he can tell eventually he can't keep them open any longer. I love watching him roll across the room and trying so hard to army crawl to whatever he has his eyes on....seriously not giving up tell he reaches it. I love watching him discover new things..like the grass, how interested he can be in it. I love how I can't give him any toys, because he looses interest in two minutes but if I give him a kitchen appliance (big cooking spoon, measuring cups, big plastic drinking cups) he will be entertained for thirty minutes. Most of all I LOVE Ty's smile. It melts my heart every day...and I am so thankful for the opportunity I have to be his mommy. 

   

 I even love my little angel when he makes not so little messes. I seriously change Ty's bum so often I think we go through a big box of diapers a week..The diapers we are using don't do the trick. He really goes potty a lot during the night, and because he sleeps clear through the night (10pm to 9am) this can make for a lot of pee. When he wakes up in the morning he is usually wet and sticky. Resulting in a bath everyday...and often times poop blow outs during the day. This particular incident in the picture the poop didn't even get on the onesie or jumper...seriously seeping right down the leg.  SO maybe I wont cheap out and get him more expensive diapers that will equal probably the amount I'm spending now...hopefully not having to change him so often or clean up poop off my kitchen floor.

4th of July fun

          I love the view from the Whetmas property! Jays and I have a family picture just like this from last 4th of July...except Ty was in my tummy. I love this shot too Ty is so smiley:)

        Excuse all the flower/random shots...I definitely know I'm no photographer but they looked so pretty! I love wild flowers. They were everywhere too. I especially loved the little baby purple ones.

 

            This years 4th was great! We packed up and went to the mountain with the Whetmans. As soon as we got there Jays set up the grill and we had hot dogs and steak. I made fruit kabobs that were red white and blue! SO FUN!! I was extremely pumped for them! We forgot Tys chair so we had to hold him the entire time-good thing he is cute!! We roasted delicious hot smoes..errr smores! I don't think you can go camping with out smores!! We shot around with the BB gun a bit and basically enjoyed the fabulous weather!

         When we got home I snapped a couple pictures of Ty playing in the grass-(his favorite)...He loves to run his hands through it and pull it out! Then stares at it in amazement. He loves new textures.

        Hope you had a GREAT 4th!
