the fruit of our labors
August 27, 2007 at 12:00 PM i've been terrible about posting. but i hear people like to see pics, so here they be...
our very first zuchinni. and i must say, we are very proud. the garden was the hub's project and baby this summer. i did nothing out there... nothing. but see what he's holding behind the squash? that would be my summer project.
the garden was a serious learning experience. we're gonna have a GREAT garden next year. this year... that's our one and only zuchinni. we have one acorn squash. the pumpkins are finally just starting to grow. we have 2 tomatoes. we have one watermelon. but cantelope... we've got 8 plants of cantelope that sprung up by the grace of God outside of the garden plot. so, we're gonna be eating a LOT of cantelope this year. my peaches are on too, but the birds are having a hey-day with them. i should probably take my own advice and hang old cd's in the tree to scare away the birds. but that would be in direct violation of my laziness creed...

we went camping (well, day camping) with some friends (who did all the work) on saturday. the kids loved every dirt covered, sugar induced moment.
E and F with sam. they were *rock-climbing*

so contemplative
Cole desperately wanted to hold H, but he was so entirely ticklish that he could barely hold on to her.
and when you get tired of camping, just kick your pants off and relax.

ok. so the pics are a little out of order, this is H's first bath. which she hated. she's really only happy when she's in my arms anyway. i've never had a baby that loved me so much. she hardly even sleeps unless she's in my arms. which is either completely cute or completely exhausting, we haven't decided yet. even when i'm holding her and she's sleeping she'll peek one eye open to make sure i'm still there.
ahhh, sisters who love eachother. except that the moment doesn't last long...
this would be G in her truest form. hitting E because she *might* be trying to touch H, and dropping H in order to make said swing.
ain't she pretty? even with her long monkey toes?
so we're a family of cheez-its. sue me.
we really are this beautiful
all the time.

I love this post! The pics are great and your kids are the cutest!
Your post reminded me that LAST year we talked about planting pupkins in our garden. Totlly forgot and I'm sure it's too late now. Oh well, there's always next year.
These pictures are great! Love em'!

*sigh*
Is it really possible for me to miss you this terribly after only seeing you for a couple short hours, for just one time in the last... oh ten years?
I miss you!
All I can do is go back to the first bath pic. She looks so teeny tiny in that one. Tiny baby... teeny tiny baby. So cute I can't stand it.
They all look so much alike - and so much like you. You all are so darned cute.
If you get an afternoon to call - CALL!
i miss you more than you know! i want to come see you but now that school is back up.. im out of time. im busy day in, day out. its the 3rd day back at school and i have 8 pages of homework in history, 2 in geometry, 1 in english, and a collage due in personal finance. talk about exhausting. i miss you though.. the baby is beautiful and i cant wait to come and see her! keep in touch.. dont be such a dang stranger! we are BFF'S after all! :]

Oh the awwness!
Your little ones are pwecious.
I have so got to usurp Stephieface's "awwness" term. I'm stealing it. Claiming it for my own. And you're the inspiration. Gorgeous. The two photos with the three girls? Priceless.
I love the double meaning of your title! This computer won't let me look at pictures, but I've seen you cute your family is in person . . . :)
My hat's off to you. I love kids, but having just one around for a full day would probably exhaust me or elave me wondering if I really do love children.
I'm enjoying the antics of yours from this safe distance. :)
