Playing catch up!

A lot of things going on around here...so much to keep up with. Even without a job both Savannah ad I seem to be constantly on the run. Soccer, school, dentist and doctor, then keeping up with the housework, as well as keep the baby happy and busy. Doesn't seem like much when I type it out though.

So, what have we been doing around here? The garden has been expanded, dug, and planted with peas, beans, carrots, radish, beets, potatoes, and lettuce. Tomatoes were supposed to go in but that hasn't happened yet, so i might have to buy some seedlings to cover that area. Potatoes went into a potato box i built, although only one seems to be sprouting now....wonder what happened to the rest of them. Oh well, we'll wait and see how that goes.

Sunflowers were planted at the back of the yard...again, something dug them up and ate them the first time. This time i covered them with some lattice until they sprouted...and now something has been nibbling the leaves, but at least they're growing!

Raspberry bush was planted, and doing pretty good. It's still small, so we won't get to much off of it this year, but it's flowering already.

Rhubarb root went in, and seems to be doing well. It's still small too, but those things grow almost anywhere so I'm not worried about that one.

Wildflowers in the front yard appear to be coming up, but it's hard to tell between the "weeds" and the "wildflowers".

End transmission...
