What goes around... comes around, right? Emma & Ethan are a big 21 months apart. For quite some time now we have been telling Emma to "be nice", "don't hit", "please share", "he is going to be your best friend" etc in regards to Ethan. Of course she did as she pleased, but we oftentimes told her "Ethan is going to be bigger than you someday... be nice!". Emma is our tiny girl.

We wanted to start small though, so we planted cucumbers (my absolute favorite!), tomatoes, green peppers and pumpkins (mainly for fun, but hopefully for Halloween!). Our tomatoes have grown nice big green tomatoes, but they just weren't ripening. Not a single red tomato to date (well, maybe 2-3 … [Read more...]
