Of lots of goodies! Andy and I started planting seeds in the basement in April and our hard work is finally paying off. We have a ton of veggies growing in our backyard right now. We have tomatoes, beans, broccoli, zucchini, yellow squash, corn, sunflowers, pumpkins, cucumbers, mint, and many more veggies and goodies. I wanted to share these pictures while the garden was so beautiful. It is Andy's passion and we are having a ton of fun growing everything...and then eating it!

Lafflam Family Update
Well, here I am, back to blogging! Sorry it has been so long since my last post. I feel like I have been so busy this August. We have had so much going on and there really has been no time to blog lately. I just wanted to send out an update on a few things.
First of all, Blake turned 2 months old on August 4. He weighed in at 12 lbs 12 oz (75th percentile) and was 23 inches long (50th percentile) at his 2 month appointment. At the appointment we found out he has a hemangioma. This is on the right side of his face and the doctor says it will go away or at least be less visible by the time he is 2 years old. He continues to be such a good baby. He sleeps through the night and has been since about 3 weeks old. His smiles and coos just melt our heart. Compared to Tyler at this age, he is a hoss. He eats 4 1/2 oz of formula every 3 hours during the day. We couldn't have asked for a better baby.Tyler continues to love Blake. He kisses him, reads to him, wants to hold him, and holds the bottle during feedings. Just today he asked if he could burp Blake and then he continued, "Good burp, Blake." They are just too cute together. There have been those few times when he has asked me to put Blake back in his car seat so he can have my full attention. That was pretty funny!
One more thing to make the month a little more busy is I have returned back to work. I am now teaching first grade again and I moved classrooms. All of this has left us really busy, but really thankful for what we have. Life is good in the Lafflam house!
