garden morning

I woke up really early this morning...one of the curses and luxuries of being 8 months pregnant, I suppose. I took the opportunity to photograph our growing garden in the morning sunlight.



Remember how we started from this?


Here's our garden box in the flesh. We made a few minor adjustments, though its essentially the same.


Everything is growing quite nicely, with a few peapods on the vine, tomato and pepper blossoms popping out,

tiny strawberries ripening, and carrot, beet, chard, and few unknown veggies sprouting (I think they're cucumbers that sprouted from the compost we mixed in).

We've also got potatoes,

shallots, onions, yellow patti-pan squash, lemon cucumbers,

and lots of herbs. Yum... I can't wait.

They're pretty too.


Other highlights outside include Addison's numbers drawn neatly from 1 - 20 (directly on the house, but hey, this is one of those battles that has not been chosen),


and our one sunflower that sporuted and survived the transplant from indoor seeding.


Its going to be a fun summer close to home!
