Kiersty's Garden

Here is our two week update of our garden. Kiersty LOVES her garden and asks to go out there almost every minute of they day. Her problem is though that she knows how to turn the hose on and refuses to leave it alone. I can try to block her way to it, cover it, distract her. Nada. Here is my pretty little girl with her flower. I took this a day or two ago and it has already doubled from here.

Spare the Air Day

Adam rides the bus every day to school and back because its free for Chico State students. The kids have been asking to ride the Daddy Bus everyday when he leaves to go to school. Yesterday Adam text me that bus rides were free all day for spare the air day. Hmm I bet the kids would love to ride the bus today. Waiting for the bus...

Someone left the window open on the bus and the kids were in hog heaven! No car seats AND I can stick my face out the open window to feel the breeze?? Note: they couldn't fit their whole head out the window!

After we got downtown we went to eat at the Bear with Daddy. He taught them how to play the shoot'em up game.

After this we walked around downtown for a bit at the Farmer's Market and then caught the bus home. They were EXHAUSTED when we got home, which was good because the new Big Bang was coming on in 30 minutes. Haha. Its the only show we care about now a days. I LOVE Amy- she's Hilarious!

Bradley's update

Oh that little boy is a cut and copy of Adam- its ridiculous!! He doesn't like to eat much, but when he does- holy cow! He ate three peices of French Toast the other night. I ate two...

He Loves to build legos. He usually builds by color. This day he was just focused on making the tower taller than himself.

This kid cracks me up!

Kiersten's funny sayings

This little kid is one silly girl! She is constantly talking and into everything. Apple doesn't fall far from the tree I guess. Yesterday Kiersten and I were walking and I was pushing the double stroller. She wanted to push the stroller herself so she tells me: "Mommy go away! My turn" "That's not nice, use your manners" "Mommy go away, please?" She is always asking for "my turns" Today we were driving and listening to the annoying children's song CD. Twinkle Twinkle Little Star comes on and I start singing it with her. She said - "No Mommy, its my turn!" During the bridge she says- Ok Mommy's turn! As soon as the words come back she demanded I stop singing so she could sing the next verse. Silly kid.

This year's garden

Last year's garden was a FAIL. The dirt patch in our backyard was filled with junk for the first two layers (which I did my best to clean) and then clay after that. Doesn't help when you have rude neighbors that poor their sodas from their balcony into my garden. I mean seriously?! You can't see my plants and cute little signs? OOh well, on a better note! This year I decided to plant buckets and pots and not put anything in the ground.

Here is our first phase of the garden. I have things in tiny cups till they sprout. Left to right we cilantro in clay pots, watermelon in the brown disposables, zucchinis in the dixie cups, and then a sunflower in the small green one. Oh, and of course an awesome tomato plant on the ground in a pot. I didn't really want to plant watermelon but it was a really cute kit of Larry the cucumber and the tomato dude. Kiersten used up all the stickers on the way home though. Silly kid! I'm thinking we'll sprout it and then give it away when it gets too big.
