Another post!

Seems like we go in spurts with the picture taking. We'll take just a few over a couple week's span and then there will be a couple days where we take a ton. These past couple days we have taken a bunch, so I figured I better post them now.

Our garden is taking off like crazy!

Check out that zucchini plant!


Tomatoes, beans, lots of lettuce greens


Herbs, peas, carrots, etc, etc, etc - too much stuff to name!


Last night Alan made goat cheese-filled squash blossoms. They were so yummy!

The pretty flowers


The finished product


Jacob loved them, but then what kid doesn't like fried things with cheese


This picture just cracks me up! Alan caught him at the wrong moment and it looks like he is ready to barf.


Jacob snacking on some fresh green beans and carrots from the garden. We've been eating the beans like candy. They are so good!


Alan finished the chicken coop. Well, almost. He still has to add the nesting boxes, but since the ladies won't be laying until this fall, there isn't a huge hurry. I think he did an awesome job!

The raised up part is where they sleep at night. They seem to be escaping though. Alan thinks they stay there most of the night, but get antsy in the morning and find their way out. He added some perches in there, so maybe they will be more inclined to stay inside. During the day they hang out in the run and play on the ladder thingy. They like to lay under the coop part too. Its built like that so they have shade. Such a smart hubby I have!


The chicks aren't chicks anymore!


We put Isaac in the swing today and he seemed to enjoy it. I love his hair tuft blowing in the wind.


Jacob thought it was pretty cool that his baby brother was swinging next to him!


Isaac wearing Jacob's hat


Isaac loves the animals on his bouncy seat


The boys playing in the playroom. Isaac has figured out how to roll over both ways (tummy to back, back to tummy) and is everywhere. He started out on the rug, but quickly rolled off.
