Little Gardener

One of Cyanne's favorite things to do is to "help" her Daddy in the garden.
This is part of her LOVE of being outside. When inside, she constantly points to the front door, says something, and indicates - clearly - that she'd much rather be outside...

While in the garden, she also likes to keep an eye on the progress of all of the vegetables coming up as well as to point at all of the lizards and say "oooohhhhhh!!!!" in a loud voice =).
Good things those lizards are quick - they dart away just as she gets closer.

Here are a few shots of Cyanne in the garden with Tom:

Waiting at the gate to enter the garden:



Another favorite - turning on the water. She does this with every faucet she comes in contact with outside. She sees Tom doing it and then wants to do it too:



Among the tomato plants:









Sitting on the wooden border. She loves to find little seats to sit on:



Practicing her balance beam skills:





Some of the tomato plants coming along - they're looking good!!






Like father, like daughter.









Nasturtiums or, as my Dad and I say - "yuck-yucks."

The garden looks amazing. I'm so jealous. Fantastic work!

Mia loves "helping" in the garden so much that she helps at day care, too.

Wow, I agree with Mara! Looks like a lot of work, too, though!
