Yucky Week

Sorry for the lack of posts this past week, the three of us have all been sick. We're slowly recovering, Brenna finally slept almost normally last night, so we're all very excited about that. We've been sharing a mighty fine virus that has me still hacking uncontrollably at moments, which is a plus when trying to talk to customers on the phone all day.

Below are pictures from this past weekend, taken during one of the moments when the three of us were feeling decent. Brenna loves being outside, and it's a nice distraction when we let her wonder on her own.

One of her favorite outdoor activities (besides swinging), is putting rocks in our hands, or in containers, such as this one. She is very good about handing us small objects, and very rarely is interested in seeing how they taste. We both agree that she has inherited my anal retentiveness in the cleaning and tidying department.

You'll notice some of my bulbs are coming up already, including a calla lily. I'll be posting some pictures of the lilac vine on the Hoes site shortly, it's in full bloom.

Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa H for the nifty outfit pictured here. This was another goodie in Brenna's V-Day package.

In this one, Brenna is pointing to something on the orange jubilee bushes, maybe a bloom, not sure. These are some of my favorite pictures because they combine family with my gardening hobby.

Here's another one where Brenna is fascinated by something overhead.

These last two pictures show our big girl walking up and down this little walkway on the side of our house.
