Growing things

Some of my long time readers may remember a thread call "A view from my desk". If you don't you can read about it here. Anyway, after just a few weeks in the New Mexico wind my bird feeder had spilled most of its seeds into the rocks outside my window. A few months later I go out to find this huge patch of grass growing wild under my window. Today I found this...



Could there BE anymore tomatoes on that plant???

HE DID IT!!!!!

Yesterday Gabriel started rolling from Back to tummy. The first two times were unconfirmed but the third was witnessed. This morning I was able to catch it on video. Due to a delay in my digital camera you don't see him flat on his back but I assure you, seconds before he was!

Welcom Tooth Fairy!

We went to the dentist today and the only concern they had with Lori was a very loose top front tooth. So they offered to pull it for $26 and I said NO WAY. So we came home and I took a nap with Gabriel and when I awoke I was greeted by Lori a few ounces lighter than she was before. Her tooth came out! She is the first of my kids to have the proverbial gaps in her teeth. Katy and Devi both have adult teeth waiting when babies fall out.

More cute baby photos

My photographer in the making, Devi took these photos of Gabriel at the horse show today. She seems to have a knack!





Don't have photos but still VERY proud...

Today Devi took a huge step outside her comfort zone and auditioned for a play at the Albuquerque Little Theater. While she did not get cast in a role we were told by one of the director's that she did very well and there just was not a part that suited her. His recommendation was to have her try out for Miracle on 34th St which is casting next weekend.

Devi did very well and I will try to get a video of her doing her monologue as practice. When I get it I'll put up a new post.

Great Job Devi!!!

She did it again!!!

Today Katlyn participated in the New Mexico Dressage Association Jr. Competition. She performed an Intro Test A and Test B Junior and received blue ribbons in both. We are so proud!

Spinning

Gabriel who is now 4 months old has figured out how to spin. We put him under this toy and within minutes he's turned himself completely upside down. If there is no toy then he just spins off of his blanket.



He was SOOOO hungry

Matthew woke the other morning and said he was starving and could he have a BIG bowl of cereal for breakfast. Of course you all know what an accomodating mom I can be...

How cool is this...

I found this at the Goodwill for....are you ready...FIFTY BUCKS!!!! Amazing huh? I know!!! I couldn't believe it. It has all of its pieces and has no major flaws. What a find!

We have tomatoes!!!

FINALLY!!! We had to stop watering them to make them think that winter was near for them to finally perform.



Katlyn's squash are also growing like crazy. We should have about 8 squash to harvest in a few weeks just from the one plant we have.
