Garden Accomplished

After waiting to some good weather we finally found it this past weekend, for a few hours anyways. Kris has had the area tilled and ready for the garden to go in for over a month but mother nature has had other ideas. On Saturday we were determined to get something in the ground and we did. Ian was a great help and Cole just enjoyed being outside in the dirt doing whatever he wanted to do. In the garden we have corn, tomatoes, lettuce, cucumbers, radishes, peppers, basil, green beans, zucchini and pumpkins. The boys are excited to it to grow and make a veggie stand at the top of the driveway for neighbors to get free veggies from, so cute! I will post a picture soon or you can check it out on facebook.
Only 3 more weeks!!! (or less)

New Thomas Boy

We are excited to have a new Thomas boy in the family, our nephew! Griffin Nicholas Thomas was born Monday, May 17, 2010 at 11:38 pm. He missed sharing a birthday with Ian by 20 minutes. He was a big boy weighing in at 9lbs. 3oz. and arrived via a c-section. Here are a few pictures from his first week. Only 5 more weeks until we meet another Thomas boy.

31 Weeks and couting

Its hard to believe that my due date is only 9-weeks away. I took a break from being stressed out about baby #3 arriving and now it is starting to cause some stress again. Honestly I don't know how we are going to afford 3 kids, especially when they are teenage boys!!! My grocery bill is already outrageous. It wouldn't be so bad right now but Kris has gone a couple of weeks without working again. I hate the economy! Ian and Cole are doing great and are just doing what boys do- play in the dirt, finding bugs, falling down, etc....

Just a few more photos from our Spring break in CA. It has been a long time since we took a family photo and I am so excited with how they all turned out.

Cole's 3rd Birthday- Part 2

We traveled down to Sonoma for Spring break and to celebrate Cole's 3rd birthday with the family. The boys are currently still in Sonoma while Kris and I are back in Oregon for work and a little quiet. The internet is slow right now so I will post pictures soon.
