I really want to give growing some of our own food a go this year, so over the last month and a half I have been organising raising seedlings and getting some more established plants into the ground.
Our basil is thriving - these bushes are about knee high.
And here are our first tomatos! I swear they are taking FOREVER to go red...I'm so impatient!
Were pretty excited about these. We also have radishes which are about 3 weeks from ready and lettuces, zucchini, cauliflower and leek all in the seedling stages.
Wanting to move away from commercial toys for Heidi, Mark and I decided to build Heidi a fort for Christmas. This is where having an engineer husband comes in handy! Mark designed it and then we built it together...and we are both still alive to tell the tale!
Here it is in all its glory!
Its a hit with Heidi..there is a ships wheel and a seat up the top and a sand pit underneath.
As of today it has been about a week of temperatures above 34 degrees and boy are we starting to feel it!
I hope everyone in my neck of the woods is staying cool.
Erin :)
