I’ve already gathered some peppers and one smaller zucchini previously, but it looks like he garden is starting to really kick in gear after all this rain and hot, humid weather.
Pretty soon it’ll be time to dust off the canning gear, I can’t wait! Until then, I’ll be cooking as many garden fresh meals as my bountiful harvest allows.

With the demise of Google Reader (RIP) I was forced to find a new reader to use. I procrastinated until the last minute. . . how unusual . . . and after reading some reviews, decided to go with Bloglovin. I really love the clean, uncluttered format as well as how easy it is to upload your RSS to the site. In addition to a great site, they also have apps for my iPad and phone that are synced, so if I start reading a post on my phone and then later look at my feed on my iPad it automatically has that post marked as read. You can also opt to have notifications on when your feed is updated with new posts from your favorite blogs, so you’ll never get behind or have to wonder “Is she ever going to post some new content?” If your interested, just click on the link at the end of each post to check it out, or hit the button over in the sidebar!
I’ve been living it up this summer with plenty of swimming, visiting the zoo, and playing both indoors and out. This month I got to see my first parade and go to my first carnival. I really liked the train ride and the carousel!
My upper eye teeth are in and I’m now working on my lower ones. I can’t wait for them to be in, I’m constantly chewing on my fingers and toys. I’m quite the chatter box, I “read” books to mommy and ask to go outside all of the time.
My favorite food right now is peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and watermelon. Yum!
I’m proud to say that I’ve been walking some. Mostly 5 or six steps to mom or dad, but I’m sure I’ll be racing around really soon. Then mom will really have to watch out!
My cousin Luke came out to visit me and he and I are best friends. I love to play with him in a blanket fort that we made and also snuggle up to read and watch him play his DS. We had a great time swimming together and just being two silly guys. I can’t wait to hang out again soon.
So much for having a slow month! This one went in a blink. Hope everyone’s enjoying summer before it speeds by!
We’ve been busy enjoying ourselves so far this summer. Lots of days at the pool, taking walks and rides in the wagon, ice cream runs, swim lessons, and some lazing around the house.
My parents and nephew also came out to visit and watch Joseph for us so I could join Shawn in Las Vegas for a few days after he finished meeting with some work vendors. We had a fantastic time. We went to see the LOVE, which was amazing! We also has some great meals, did a little gambling and spent one afternoon at the pool. Just what the doctor ordered.
Hope everyone else has been enjoying the summer so far!

I have had so much fun this past month! I went on my first family vacation and got to see the ocean for the first time. I loved the waves and splashing in the surf. We got to go on lots of walks and played in the pool everyday.
I am still jabbering away and like to sing to myself and with mommy. I am SO close to walking. I will walk anywhere holding mummy’s fingers and “walk” on my knees too. I just like to crawl because that’s the faster way to get around.
All of my first year molars are in, but now I’m working on my upper eye teeth! The tips have just broken through, but I’m constantly chewing on my fingers. I am really tired of getting new teeth, but it makes eating a lot easier. some of my favorite foods are blueberries, watermelon, daddy’s pancakes, and pizza.
I love reading my books, playing with my “bike” and going for rides in my wagon. Bath time is still the best time of day because I get to splash and play with my boats. The vacuum and I are still going strong and Walter and I wrestle every day. Mommy gave me my first job, to give Walter his treat when he comes inside.
I am looking forward to some more summer fun and learning more things!
****Mommy actually had this post ready to go on my actual 15 month birthday, but she was so tired that she forgot to upload it. *****
While on vacation, Shawn surprised me by scheduling a massage at Heavenly Spa by Westin. (This might have had something to do with him going off to golf a couple times earlier in the week.) I’ve been wanting a hot-stone massage for years and I finally got one. Yes, it lived up to all my expectations.
It. Was. Heaven.
