Update from the garden...

I love going to look at my garden. I get excited to think that I will one day soon be able to start eating vege's out of our garden. After laying the mulch I picked up the other week it looks really good.



There is something that likes to snack on my purple cabbages and peas but if they leave everything else alone, it is a small price to pay......
I am guessing field rat, but take a look and give me your verdict...
See the trail in the grass.... 

Not what I wanted to see so close to my garden!

As for our chickens. They are as big as their mother now. A couple have red 'dangly bits' and combs. I can't wait for them to start laying. None have started crowing, so I assume that is a good thing. Will keep you posted though. I am sure it will be a BIG story when it finally happens..

(Elissa I will be spewing if your chickens lay before mine!!!!! I'll be egg envy!!)

    I am sure you are quite safe... all but one of mine died... i think they pretty much drowned in all the rain we have been having. :(

"I'll be your best friend?!"

My baby never fails to have a “such a cutie” moment every day. I don’t know what it is about him, perhaps knowing he is the baby, or simply that he was such a good baby, that I have noticed these little moment s more.   I have to share this one with you. It has happened twice this last week. We are sitting in the car and Rakaipaka calls out and asks for something. Usually it is a lolly or chocolate or something I don’t have at that time. Anyway I call out ‘no’, and the response comes back, “Oooh, Ill be your best friend”!!! Ha How cute is that!! He is all of what 2 years old and is already trying that line on his mother!!! Now the question is posed…. Which one of his siblings did he hear that from!!!!

Volleyball

Teancum really enjoys playing volleyball. He jumped right into the teams at boys high, and within a couple of weeks, he was in the 'A' team. They came runner up this season to a solid Hillcrest school team. An awesome group of boys.
