Still alive

Lindsay doesn't seem to have any permanent damage after her traumatic event yesterday, thank goodness! She is a little clingy today and weary of the edge of the bed. I hope she remembers edge = bad fall. Her injuries are looking better too. I am really glad that she didn't get a black eye!











We did a little gardening today. Justin ran out of time and didn't get all of the flowers planted. He will probably move the ones I did plant, but he wanted them in the ground so they would be alive when he got home. He also mentioned trimming a tree and possibly the bushes by the front door. I took that as permission to clear the walkway to the front door. I hate how the bushes grow over and shrink the walkway... we don't have that problem anymore! There was another bush I started giving a haircut, but Lindsay ran out of patience (she was tired of Bob). I will have to finish that tomorrow. I figured I better take full advantage of the clippers before my privileges get revoked.

Lindsay loves the outdoors, so we spent some time in the backyard. I had a hard time keeping her on the sheet though. She doesn't like the feel of the grass, so I'm not sure why she crawls towards it. She did enjoy the tomatoes I picked and they were a great distraction while I got the roses pruned. I noticed later that her little dagger teeth broke through one of the tomatoes, that would be the third solid food she has had!




On an Olympic note: Congratulations to Michael Phelps on his record breaking 8 gold medals! What a huge feat by a great athlete. I am most impressed with his mother and her undying love and support. What a great example she is as a mother, she deserves her own gold medal, Go Debbie Phelps!

Cutest picture ever of her cupping that little tomato to her mouth!
