Happy Birthday Sweet Daughter of mine ~ Bella turns the BIG 3!!!!!

Happy Birthday Bella Vog!!! I can't believe you are turning 3 years old. It just seemed like yesterday that i was painting your nursery and wondering what you were going to look like. You've grown so much and your such a beautiful little girl with a smile that melts our hearts. I wish I could freeze time and keep you this super cute age forever. You are so much fun and it goes by in the blink of an eye. I'm amazed everyday by you...the things you say, how much you know and how much you can make us laugh. As much as I miss the days of cuddling with you at those 2am feedings, I do look forward to all the new, fun and exciting things we get to share wiht you, as we watch you grow!!

You so cutely call yourself "Bella Vog Addison". It use to be just Bella vog, someone would say, your Isabella, and you would say "no i bella vog" it was so super cute, and now your middle name always comes at the end...too cute to correct!! You are 100% potty trained now. YOu havn't worn diapers in about 3 weeks now. Your doing really well, you've only had a couple accidents. you don't even wear them at night. You weigh 33 lbs, and your 37 3/4 inches tall. and of course we think you are a GENIOUS!!!

For your birthday we asked you what you wanted to do and you said you wanted to go to Chucky cheese's becasue thats where "it wains spaaarwklies". You seen your first chucky cheese commeercial and that did it, you wanted to go there, so there we went!!

~How does your Garden grow ~

..Welcome to my garden!!!

I have been a busy little gardner this year for sure!!! It seems like it takes FOREVER for the plants to start growing after you plant the seeds and than you get a little busy with "life" and wham-o, everything has gone crazy out of control and you have pumpkin vines invading everywhere and out of control weeds!!

Here are some before and after pix of the garden area..Enjoy!!

So here is what the garden looked like before....UUUUUGGGGGlyyyyy!!! Weeds galore, just a total mess!!!
...vince rotatilled it all up for me and with the help from my "special little garden helper" Bella and I weeded the raised beds and made it all pretty!

...Oh'p there is my little garden helper again!! isn't she the cutest helper!! she loved helping with her "shobel"..hehe

SOOOOO Here is that corner with the old stump now!!!! KAZAAAAAM!!! snap!
...aaah isn't it so cute!! I tried and trid to get a good picture tha gets everything in it, but i suck at taking pix, i need a wide angle lens or something or maybe a photography class, lol.
..here is onions, strawberry's, chives..broccli and carrots, in the back is pumpkins..potatoes, off to the left is celery, corn, sunflowers..way in the back is raspberries....
Here is the corn and i made that little walkway of broken stones inbetween my tomoato plants, i put rocks aroudn them and planted a ton of marigold seeds and othe flowers, i think it turned out so cute!
..here are the marigolds that i planted from seeds now!!! GORGEOUS if i do say so myself!






I was suprised to walk out one day and find this cutest pumpkin growing smack dab up on some rocks, in the middle of my flower garden!!
..the pumpkins are going crazy! But OH SO CUTE!! and SOOO exciting...here is that same walkway inbetween the corn and tomato's and the pumpkins are taking over now!! hahah but oh how i will love them come fall!!!!


I started getting rippend grape tomato's a week or 2 ago , bella found them and ate them faster than i could snap their picture!! these were the 2nd red ones i could find and does anyone know why they get those marks on them?






I save this rose's life last year, and its happy as a clam now!! I think its called the 4th of July Rose...sooo pretty!!

Here is a bigger view of it now, kinda big and out of control!! lol



I just harvested some potato's last night but forgot to take their picture, oops!! Thanks for dropping in!!! Hope you enjoyed the pix of the garden!!! My next post will be about my big 3 yr old girl!! I can't believe my little Bella roo is 3!!!! so stay tuned!!! =)
