Baby Update

I went to the dr. today for my weekly check up. The good news is that the baby has turned (yay - no breech baby) & that I am dialated to a 1. Not much, I know, but after almost four weeks of contractions, I'll take what I can get. Dr. Fowers told me that IF I make it to 39 weeks he'll likely just start me b/c of how big my other babies were. I didn't argue that one!

Another weekend, another project!

Well, this past weekend we started trenching so Travis could put in 2 more secondary water bibs so I don't have to drag the hose all over the entire yard. Right now all we have is one tap out front. We've hooked 2 hoses together so I can water everything I've planted & it's a huge pain in the butt & takes about an hour to water every night. The kids spent Friday night at Trav's mom & dad's house so early Sat. we were out working hard.
Here are a few pix of what my yard looks like now - a virtual ankle breaker for both kids & myself!


This is where our only secondary water tap is - out front & right on the edge of the property.



Going across the entire backyard.




This is our little garden. I managed to get all my flowerbeds & the garden weed free before it got too hot in the day.
