Misc. pictures too funny and cute not to share

She turned 6 mos. old this week!

Where has the time gone? She's scooting on the floor now, too! My little sunshine!

First bite and other Carrie moments

She was having no part of that banana. ;-) And her first tooth broke through the last couple of days, too!

Back patio is poured now...

So it's time we start to do something to the back mud-pit yard. I can't wait to get hubby's hammock on that patio!

So here's the other end of the house we're working on...

Here's what the Parentes like to do after supper when the weather is nice...





We're working our way around the house with plants, mulch and the like...

Newly weeded and mulched garden path....

Sorry I'm a bit later than I anticipated on loading these but I really wanted to get some good shots after my sweet husband brought in the new mulch and all. I need to add some plants here(suggestions are welcome!) but I'm not sure what to put because of the light in that spot. So here's LOTS more of the garden path....

Garden path with its newest additions for the spring

My dear husband added these pretty stones from his folks' in KY to our pathway and you can see the hydrangeas that were starting to bloom then. Oh and a new angel for the yard, too. This was before weeding... I'll get another of it up here that was taken more recently tonight.

Catching up...
