lots of gardening!

Our past week and a half or so has been filled with lots and lots of gardening!  We got all of our veggies, herbs, and some annuals planted.  Owen was a big "help" with all of it...mostly he played in the dirt and randomly watered things he thought needed water.

digging in the compost...just like Dad!

the forest of dill needed water

bleeding heart too.

We've also been doing some Friday evening picnic dinners now that the weather is nice.  We headed over to Lake Nokomis last week and Lake Harriet (no pics) this week.

mmmm....corn fritter!

Owen loves climbing up the ladder, but refuses to slide down the slide...it caused quite the traffic jam

He has also become mildly obsessed with brushing his teeth lately.  He brushes like 4-5 times a day...not ever very well or thoroughly, so I figure they all add up to about 1 good brushing.  

sweet bed head!

drinking from the sink tap may be the reason he likes to brush so often...

such a ham!
