My other babies!



Yes, Keith teases me about my other babies: my plants. I have seedlings that I have been trying to grow into "real" plants for my vegetable garden this summer. This is the biggest I have ever gotten them to grow. I haven't figured out what to do with them when we leave for vacation. It's still too unpredictable here to know what kind of cold weather might roll in if I plant them outside, and I have not heard of plant sitters or people taking them on planes while trying to entertain a 1 1/2 year old. So if they survive, we might just have some yummy tomatoes, cabbage, artichokes, bell peppers, eggplants (haven't seen those come up yet though)... The rest of the seeds (zucchini, summer squash, corn, spinach, onions) just get planted outside. They don't have to be babied. This gardening stuff is kind of addicting! You should try it! (And if you already have, any advice?)

You and Brad are a lot alike in regards to plants. He loves taking care of our garden, lawn, plants and more. I am so excited for you guys! A little boy will be so much fun! When is your due date? I was wanting to make a trip up there sometime this summer. I would love to see you and your family!!
