Spud: [spuhd]: a potato


These are some of our "spuds" from our garden. We grew a pretty big garden this year, but halfway through we decided it was too massive for us. These are the red potatoes, Jesse's favorite kind. My favorite part of the garden is the raspberries. I even learned how to can jams! Thanks to my wonderful mother-in-law, Judy! This year I learned to can green beans, beets, pickles, apricot/pineapple jam, raspberry jam, carrots, spaghetti sauce, salsa, strawberry jam, and strawberry lemonade concentrate. One thing we have learned about gardening this year is to never plant 2 massive rows of tomatoes again! We had way too many tomatoes, but hey at least our garden will have great fertilizer this next year. oops :)


Joon is now a year and 1 month old (a.k.a. 13 months). She is starting to walk, but she gets so excited when she does that she ends up falling down quickly. She never stops smiling, unless she has to go to bed. The words she can say now: "Goose", "Doggie", "Daddy", "Mom", "Kitty", "Cat", "Oh Wow", "Wowwie", "What's that", "Look", "Ouch", "All done", "More", and her newest word: "Num Num" (yum yum).

P.S. Joon has 12 teeth now. and 2 more thinking about popping through.
