We can grow 'em

like i said we can grow 'em, babies and vegetables. i am just thankful that it did not take 3 tries to grow the baby like it did the garden. we went to BellaRose's one month check up and she is a growin'! she is weighing in at 10lbs 6oz. she is 22 1/2 inches long and her head is 15". i could not believe it. our little baby is getting big. of course she was a little bigger then expected to begin with. what happened to that 7lb baby they were telling me we were going to have? some exciting news for us here is that she slept through the night the other night. i did not have to wake up to feed her at all. it was wonderful. of course i was worried something was wrong with her and that kept me up. worth had to assure me that she was just fine. the doctor seemed very pleased with her and he said that she probably would not sleep through the night last night, he was right. she woke up at 4. not bad though for going to bed at 8. we love this little girl so much. we praise God everyday for her.




on to other things that we grow, squash, lots and lots of squash and cucumbers (of the burpless variety-maybe BellaRose should have some). do you want any? please!! worth asked me the other day if i like squash, i do not. he wondered why we planted so much, i thought he wanted that much. so needless to say we are going to have a lot of squash. we are also very proud of these bell peppers. they hopefully will tun red soon. there are a couple on that little plant. we will also have lots and lots of tomatoes, but i love tomatoes. makes for some great salsa. i will have to give a bunch to Angela, so she can make Worth his favorite salsa. last but not least, we will have pumpkins. this is my favorite part. i love a pumpkin as many of you know. i am blessed to have a birthday in october and that means lots of pumpkins for me. it also means fall. what can be better, fall, pumpkins, and birthdays! eventually i would love to have enough pumpkins where people come to my pumpkin patch and pick their own pumpkins. i would also love a Christmas tree farm, but i digress. so if you want some pumpkins, tomatoes, squash, and growing babies (kidding on the last one, duh!) come to
Worth 'n Sunday's farm!

I'm totally cracking up that you have a whole garden of squash and no squash eaters :) Mush it up in your blender and freeze it for when BellaRose is ready for baby food in a couple months. She's so big!!! Almost caught up to Rylie!

WE want squash!!!

What a sweetie pie! Rylie slept throught he night about once a week for about a month or so before it actually became a routine. And we have reverted back to this pattern since our vacation!

Did you get a Playyard for the beach?

katie- worth likes squash, but he thought that i really liked it too, and i don't. pretty funny.
no we don't have a play yard. we are going to take her moses basket for her to sleep in. should work out pretty well.

What a good little girl, giving her mom and dad the sleep they need. She's already so thoughtful.
I loved seeing you today. She's beautiful, I loved having her lay her head on my shoulder.
Go Grants, on the garden. And we love squash, but of course we are eating free right now so you can't beat that.

Sunday, I don't know if I sent you an e-mail yet or not....but your baby is lovely. Really what a complete sweetheart. Between the pics of you and Jessica's baby I am getting the itch to "grow things" myself he-he. I am very happy for you and 'ol Worth boy. If you come to the beach I hope you won't be like the HAYNIE'S and not see me (but I'm not bitter;)) Your garden looks great too.
Ya know in that wonderful place called Italy where we share ancestry, they take the flower of zucchini's and fry them and they are the most delight thing you will ever eat. I'm sure you could do the same with your squash since they are relatively the same vegetable. I have a couple Italian friends here actually and am trying to get an authentic recipe. I will keep you posted.
I am a very big fan of squash and wish I could come and get some. Anyway, take care of your little Rose. Love Reener
