I keep forgetting to post pictures from my wonderful Mother's Day. Gabe and I worked in the yard for the entire Mother's Day weekend, which was a lot of fun. Gabe built me the raised planters I've wanted since I moved here. So now our tiny, unkempt yard is our tiny, charming yard with flowers and fruits and veggie plants. Last week Ellis helped me water. We were both pretty soaked in the end, but it was fun :)

Here is our yard now...(pay no attention to the grass---that's our next yard project to tackle)
Those are our blueberry, blackberry, strawberry, tomato, banana pepper, bell pepper plants, and cilantro:Here is our yard in process over M's Day weekend:
And back to Ellis watering (her arm, in this case)---sorry things are so out of order:
It's you against me, Hose. I plan to win.
And apparently Ellis can NOW climb up onto and subsequently over the back of the sofa. See what happens when you neglect your toddler in order to update your blog?
