Okay, so we've gotten several requests from people wanting to see the pregnant belly. The original plan was to take pictures every couple of weeks or atleast once a month to document the progress, but we haven't exactly stuck to the plan. We've only taken pictures twice, but we'll try to be a little more diligent from here on out.

Apprentice Gardeners
Well, we decided to try our hand at gardening this year. Our first task was to choose what to plant and where to plant it. Matt planned it all out and even drew up some sketches to figure out how much room we would need for each kind of crop. We decided to plant corn, bell peppers, cucumbers, onions, carrots, zucchini, parsley & basil. We thought about digging up part of the backyard ("Proposed Area" in the sketches) to give us a nice big garden, but luckily there was enough room in the planter area right outside of the back fence for all of our crops.

(Notice the accuracy...he even shows the trampoline & picnic table. I love it.)

This is our garden a month later...in June.

& zucchini starting to sprout up in the foreground.)

Close-up on the corn.
And finally...our garden in July.

It's been really fun to have our own garden and watch it grow. We can't wait to start munching on some yummy veggies...especially the corn.
