Tomatoes

A few weeks ago I planted tomatoes and green bell peppers in our topsy turvy tomato planters, and hung them on a shepherds hook. They were too heavy for the hook they were on, and the whole thing fell over. The plants looked like they were going to be alright, but I was sorely mistaken. I looked at them the next morning and the top half of the tomato plant was all wilted and shrivelled, upon closer inspection I noticed that it had been broken 90% off from the rest of the plant when it fell. Ever since then the rest of the plant hasn't been looking too good either. I looked at it more closely this afternoon and realized that the base of the plant was pretty damaged in the fall as well. So I went to the Wal-mart (we've got a brand spankin' new one just down the road) and bought me a new plant. It'll be put in tomorrow morning, and I'm excited to get it going. The peppers are starting to bud and flower, and I'm really excited to have some fresh produce in my yard this year. The lettuce has all sprouted too and is looking like it's going to do really well.

Swimming time

Noah had his first swimming pool experience. The neighbor's had a little kiddie pool out today and all the neighborhood kids were playing in it, so we went to join in the fun. Mostly he just crawled around on the grass wearing only his diaper and a hat playing with random toys that other kids had left out. Then I decided he needed to brave the four inches of water in the pool. It was cold, but he didn't seem to care. He stood there for a second thinking about it....crouched down to crawl around on hands and feet.....then he accidentally got splashed a little by the other one year old that was in the pool, and he decided that it wasn't for him, and started screaming frantically. lol. Funny kid.

Green Thumb

Today I planted our "garden". I've got hanging planters with tomatoes, green peppers and lettuce in them. I'm worried that they're going to be too heavy for what they're hanging on, and we might have to replant them in some big pots on the patio, but I don't care. I'll have fresh veggies one way or another this summer!
