Flowers...



While Brady was napping this afternoon, I was able to plant some flowers!

Garden Update!

Our garden is progressing nicely! It is so much fun! Every evening after work Brady, Maddie and I head straight to the garden to see what has changed during the day.



Here is a shot of the corn and the tomatoes:



Here is a shot of my favorites thus far, peas!

Memorial Day 2010


It's important to me that Ev and I teach our children the meaning behind each holiday. This weekend we will take time to remember those who have sacrificed for us and those that are serving our country right now. I think grateful thoughts of my grandfather, the Carey sisters who enlisted as nurses, Kinsie Raynor and her family, and so many others.

Katie's Adventures in Gardening...







I am attempting my first garden this summer...wish me luck! Ev built me this beautiful raised bed and Brady and I spent the day planting. We enjoyed looking at our tulips, just opened on Friday. We mourned our lost corn, thanks to Lucy the cat, my starts died...but we planted more! I'll keep you posted!



A day in the life of Brady...

First, we figured out what the sprinkler was...a water fountain!!
Then we shared a drink with Maddie!
Then we completely soaked ourselves! What a great day!

One Year Comparison...

Here is another video from last night on the slide. Then I started watching old videos of Brady and thought I would share one from last May. Here is Brady one year ago:

New Slide!

We picked up Brady's new slide today and set it up in the living room! It is quite a hit!

Sorry for my video skills, I'm a nervous nelly when Brady climbs up the slide and Maddie is nervous about this big object in the living room!

figuring things out...

First, Brady pushed the tub from the kitchen into his bedroom and climbed on top.
Then he climbed from the tub to the rocking chair.

Then he sat down and rocked, very proud of himself.
