Garden Helper

I like to help Mommy work in the garden. It is my job to pick the cucumbers and tomatoes. I've been very on top of the cucumber situation and have picked a lot.
This year our tomatoes have been a little pathetic. (Mommy forgot the cow manure, even though I reminded her. She has learned her lesson). Mommy told me I can't pick the tomatoes until they grow and turn red.

I've been doing a lot of waiting.

Rainy Day Bugs

Last weekend I went to see the "Big Bugs", a collection of 13 giant insect sculptures, at the Garden in the Woods with my friend Nora and our mommies. In honor of the exhibit, I wore my bee hat and Nora wore her ladybug raincoat.
It's a good thing I had a hat because we got caught in a downpour in the middle of the trail! Still we persevered and managed to see all the Big Bugs.

Here I am in front of the giant butterfly. I thought it was beautiful.


The ants were our favorite.


The bee was pretty cool too.


I think we might go back and see the Big Bugs again when it's not quite so rainy.

Kites and cold feet

Last weekend Grammy and Papa came to visit me. I took them to my favorite beach to play. I got to fly my kite because it was really windy and I thought that was pretty fun.


Sammy tried too but he didn't get it as high.


Then I introduced Papa to the chilly New England water along with my favorite phrase "Again!"
