Labor Day Weekend

Where do I even begin???

Ok, first I'm going to brag. Remember those veggies DH wanted to grow? Well, the basil, parsley and oregano have really taken off and have been featured in much of my cooking. The green beans... well, I'm not really sure where they've gone off to. And the other day, I was outside and saw this:



Damn skippy, that's a tomato! It's runty and green, but it's growing. I'm really trying to remember to keep it watered.

Ok, now back to what everyone really cares about. Turtle.

A few days after the 4 month appointment, we went ahead and introduced sweet potatoes. Turtle is in heaven. There is nothing in this world as yummy as pureed sweets, apparently. Today, we're going to try out green beans.



We also set up Turtle's second exersaucer thing. It's not as much fun for him as the other one, but it does allow him better access to the puggies. He made a few grabs for Oscar, who was more than tolerant of the baby fingers.




On Saturday night, we had A & W over with their daughter S. The adults had burgers, while the little ones enjoyed footy pajamas and bouncy seats on the kitchen table. So cute.



Finally, and best of all, Turtle had his first time in the pool. His little buddy B invited him to come play, so we packed up his trunks and his float and off we went. B and Turtle matched in their cute little outfits and both of them had a great time! Turtle was kicking and B just about dozed off. It was an awesome afternoon.
