<\/a>Lex got green beans from the plant he brought home from school! He even shared one with me. Yum!<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/a>He also brought a pumpkin plant home from school, and it's flowering. I hope we get a pumpkin!<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/a>The peas are growing strong.<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/a>This is why I garden. He won't touch veggies on a plate, but fresh from the garden... he eats them up!<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/a>Lex woke up this morning with a plan in mind. It started with a sign (paper, markers, glue, popsicle stick), then a chair, and a parking garage... that's when I took this picture. He is in the living room right now building the hotel on top of the chair. Apparently there is an airport behind it. I love when he is so certain about his plans.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
I’m not feeling very verbose at the moment (very tired instead!) but here are a few pictures from yesterday and today that I wanted to share. It has been nice settling back into a routine with the kids. I feel … Continue reading
