A Hard Day's Work in the Garden

Adam brought home 14 tomato plants as well as lettuce, mini bell peppers and spinach to plant in our garden! We only had room for 12 tomato plants however. If anyone needs tomatoes this spring/ summer, come to our house! ; ) Owen has been allowed to play in the dirt for quite a while now, so he isn't too thrilled with not being able to stomp on our new plants. Tomorrow we are off to OSH to get some fencing to keep our little King Kong out of our garden! Maybe we should get a sandbox while we are out to take the place of his old play yard.

Owen did however do a great job using his shovel to help Mommy plant the new veggies! He had fun with two friends that came over to play today. The boys were all great little helpers. They helped keep Owen busy while we did the gardening. He is getting pretty good at giving kisses out now, it's the sweetest thing ever to watch him give a kiss to another child. Melts my heart.

After everyone left I turned around to catch him with his blanket (that he has become very attached to), his pacifier and his feet up on the couch relaxing for several minutes (which is a pretty long time for a toddler to rest). He must have been pretty tired after all that digging!
