My new garden

We have been working hard on trying to get our yards put back together after a year-long sprinkler project. My husband has been slaving away installing new sprinklers, laying sod, sorting gravel, building retaining walls... and my contribution is a cinder block succulent garden that is on our front stoop. Not quite as impressive as laying 1200 sq feet of sod but who's keeping score? Not me! 

Maybe I'll be fair & show you the finished backyard too.... but not yet.. let's bask in my garden just a little longer...

Nature vs Nurture: a Queen fan

There was no escaping it... Drew was destined to be a Queen fan from birth. Both Mark and I are big Queen fans - we went to see them for our first Valentine's Day, we made him listen to Bohemian Rhapsody in utero, our cat is named after Freddie Mercury... So, just to squelch any lingering question about it I made Drew his very own Queen shirt out of my old one. 

Maybe he needs a mustache to complete the look? 

I can sleep anywhere!

The other night my dad was visiting & while we were waiting for dinner to finish up I gave Drew his evening bottle. All of a sudden I noticed it had gotten pretty quiet and looked down and this is what I saw...

Mr Drew had propped his bottle on his chest and fell asleep in the middle of the living room floor. It was too funny. He's never done anything like that before so I had to record it. He only stayed that way for about 20 minutes but it was great while it lasted. 

Proof that if you're tired enough, you can sleep anywhere.

Carnage

Drew tried a few strawberries the other day... he enjoyed them a bit too much I think and managed to get them everywhere. The poor strawberries never had a chance.

Hangin Out... Rollin Around

Just hanging out... rolling around the livingroom before bedtime.

Fashion Plate

Drew got a new hat... and I thought I'd share with you. It's pretty cute and he got lots of compliments on it at the Farmers Market. 

Just wanted to share.

What?! It's been a month?

Wow how time flies... it's been a MONTH since I posted last. I received a few complaints from my herds of loyal followers so here we be - back and posting for your enjoyment!

Tomorrow is Sunday & for years we've been avid listeners to the program Breakfast with the Beatles on KLOS. Admittedly there were many weeks where we slept right through it but now that we have a cute little alarm clock we are back to catching it almost every week.

Last week Drew and I decided to get into the groove a bit & he dawned is Beatles shirt. The shirt is a 2-4 month shirt so I am thoroughly impressed that it still fits him but it does, for now, so he wore it and we ate our breakfast and rocked out to the Fab Four.

They are never too young to learn about good music.
