We love the Bumbo!

Michael at less than 2 1/2 months is already holding his head up enough to try out the Bumbo seat. He sat in in for about 15 minutes before getting a bit tired. We love this thing so far!

Happy Birthday to you, Daddy!

Brad (Daddy) turns 31 tomorrow the 16th. We so wish that we could be with him on his birthday, but for now we just have to wait to celebrate when he can be home again. We love you, Daddy! Come home safe! Happy Birthday!

What do you think?

Mimi and Papa (Tami and Fr. Phil Pelikan) think that we may have a little Joe Cocker on our hands. He's holding back a bit on this clip, but you should see him when he's not being put on the spot...its hilarious!

On a side note...

With my new little one to attend to, I am also finding that I have another passion...gardening! Since I have a home with a fairly sizeable yard, I am finding all sorts of fun stuff to do outside. Here are some pictures of my little projects in the yard.
Here is my new fountain. This is our anniversary present from Brad's parents.

Here are some of my roses. They were a birthday gift from my parents.

Gabriel loves to check out our Elephant Ear plant. We have another,but its growing a bit crazy...I think its a mutant! See! It's bigger and looks better now...but this was starting to confuse me...the two were the same kind of bulb!




Here is my veggie garden. I just transplanted my tomatoes in there today.

See...I'm having some success!





So, that's your tour around my garden. I am in just the beginning stages, but I am getting so much enjoyment out of tending to these little projects.
