First veggies...



John with our first chili pepper and the second cherry tomato of the summer.



Yellow tomatoes, almost ready to go!



And the socks I started this morning. How cute are they?? They're the Jaywalker pattern in Knit Picks Felici.

Bibs are the answer



...to how I'm going to make gifts for all these kids that keep coming into the world. I like to make toddler socks, but I really can't keep up.

Cute, huh?

Garden update: We're afraid we may be losing our squash to powdery mildew--alternating between spray and miracle grow to see if we can get them to pull through. The tomatoes, peppers, and strawberries are all doing fine. John's Brandywine tomatoes are just now starting to flower/bud. We had one ripe strawberry, but I waited too long to pick it. Something else ate it before I could.
