Lexi and I have been broadening our horizons lately. This past week we walked anywhere but our neighborhood. It got to be a little to monotonous and routine so we have been switching it up a bit. Monday as everyone knows from the last blog we went to the park and tried out the swings and played in the grass. Tuesday we ventured over to this wonderful little oasis called Riparian Preserve, it is AH-MAY-ZING!!! It's peaceful and full of birds and ducks- which come to find out Lexi loves. So 3 mornings were spend walking the preserve and admiring the duckies. Wednesday we found ourselves at the zoo with Becky and Hayden and had a wonderful time, as usual. Can I just mention how lucky we are to be able to have friends close by who enjoy walking, chatting, and the zoo as much as we do! It makes my heart smile to think of Hayden and Alexia being able to grow up together and experience life.
I am also going to use this blog to talk about my pretty awesome tomato plants. My early girl has really started to come to life. I am hoping that last nights storm didn't do too much damage as I thought the storm was over and woke up to roaring winds last night and my poor girl was all kinds of bent over this morning. Anyways, after inspection she has 6 little tomatoes now starting to come to life along with the one that was already started when I got her. I am so excited! I found myself in the plants again on Thursday and came home with 2 peppers and a lovely purply pink flower thing! I can't wait to start a real garden next year!! As for my 2 other tomato plants they are coming along nicely but I think it will still be quite some time before I see any life on them!
Below are some pictures from the week for your enjoyment.

it was a little too chilly and wet out for the preserve this morning so we went to the mall instead.
Lexi's first time in the play area. It was fun until it started to fill up with unruly kids and one who kept running over Lexi |
