Soccer Time!

Ok, yes I thought that I was doing good at my picture taking of the kids playing soccer. I realize now that I was delusional. I promise I will be better next time. We have been to the soccer field at least 3 times during the week. Aiden loves it so it's ok with me. The games are an hour unlike tee ball so that is also a win for me considering I have an almost 8 month old Ava. The weather is just starting to get cooler and it is just FABULOUS to be at the soccer field. 

Ava loves being outside. If she is ever fussy we can just bring her outside and she stops. It's amazing. Needless to say we spend a lot of time outside. This is her at the soccer field just hangin' out. 

Of course when it rains, we just sit in the truck and watch from inside. The kids really loved playing in the rain. This particular day it was warmer outside so the rain really cooled them off. 

My Silly Girl

Ava Ava Ava... What a sweet little wonderful girl. She does not want ANYTHING to do with baby food! Me thinking, "Oh I should make my own baby food!" If you do not know me I am an all or nothing kind of person, but I'm trying to work on that. I am a work in progress! Hey! Who isn't? Did I ever mention I was a rambler too... I have made loads and loads of baby food and now it sits in the freezer waiting to be eaten. Did you know that baby food can be sad, because my baby food is sad. 

She sticks her tongue out and just lets the baby food just fall off of her tongue. She thinks she is a comedian. That's ok though she is so cute she can think whatever she wants. She will, however, eat small pieces of bread. I will take what I can get. I have also read that some babies skip baby food altogether. Have any of you other moms ever go through this?

She doesn't know what to think of Max just yet. 

My Not So Bountiful Harvest

I have always wanted to be a full on gardener. Well only during the summer months at least. Ha! I have realized this year that you have got to fully commit or you are going to waste some money and time. I don't know about you, but I am not into wasting money or time for that matter.

Don't let this picture fool you. They may look like regular green bell peppers, but they are a mini version of the real thing. I have tried let me tell you, I have tried to wait and see if they will grow to be mature like their parents, but it never happened, so off the plant they came and into my humble abode. Tomorrow is the time for me to harvest the pole beans. We will see how that goes...
