A few tidbits...

It's been too long without a post. A few tidbits from the last few weeks.

The garden is really growing. We are learning lots about gardening as we go. Like, next year I will not be buying Goliath tomato plants. I don't know what made me pick out this particular variation. I have always liked the story of David and Goliath and I have always pulled for the little guy. But, in this case, I bought the bully and he is taking over the garden. It actually makes me laugh when I walk out there. Why didn't I just buy creole...oh well!

[this pic was from a few weeks so you can't tell which ones are goliath...you can tell now!] :)


And check out those cucs... I can't wait to pick them!


In William news...
He slept until 10:00 a.m. yesterday morning. I had to include this because I don't want to forget. ha! Not that I would, but that is sooo late. He has become a bit of a snoozer in the morning [absolutely, no complaints here] but it has totally affected his nap schedule and I think we're about to drop the morning nap. [this is a sad reality I am facing!]

He gives high fives, barks like a dog, says mama, dada, uh-oh. LOVES graham crackers, black beans and his blue blanket. Wants nothing more than to be outside. His little knees are so calloused because he is a super fast crawler and will crawl on ANYTHING! 

What else about the little man...still not walking but I got him some Stride Rite shoes and I've heard that does the trick! This makes me laugh but I've had three people mention these shoes helping their children walk. We shall see.

He emptied an entire container of puffs in the produce section of Wal-Mart this morning. But I spilled a large container of popcorn in the foyer of the movie theater last week. [like mother like son!] :)


I got him this tunnel at a garage sale recently for $2...it was a hit! :)



I also found these LSU glasses...all of them for $5. woo-woo!


I got my first pair of crocs and I'm having a hard time not wearing them everywhere. Why did I wait so long to jump on the bandwagon?!?!? :)


The weather is too good to be true down here!!! Happy Monday!
