Here's what we've been growing ... I mean, doing!

Turns out my kid loves to grow things!  We planted Sugar Baby Watermelons (of all things!) and surprise, surprise they sprouted in two days!  Aren't they adorable?


My gorgeous baby!

And ... the winds came, knocked our Sugar Babies to the curb and the poor things just couldn't pull through.  Sooooo, back to the beginning! We picked up some new supplies ... Taken' it to the next level!

Poor kid.  He has my grandpa's smile ... adorable.

We started all but one row in our seed starter, nothing popping through yet, but we remain hopeful.



Starting a garden isn't the easiest thing when you live in the desert.  So, we converted a turtle sand/water, uh, thing, for his garden.  We even got a little umbrella that might (probably won't) help with the scorching sun that shows up around now.  Either way, we're having fun getting dirty and learning about how things grow!


Homeschool room is ALMOST finished!  We have a chair being delivered tomorrow that will hopefully make a great spot for reading together and we are just finishing up our blackboard.  I had a few pictures, but for some reason the files didn't work ... so ... SOON!
