a little update...

Garden harvesting is in full swing and we aren't the only ones reaping the benefits :) (beet greens for the goats) i canned 9 quarts of beans and 3 quarts of pickled beets yesterday... i ain't no grandma blake but i consider myself successful :) 

oh hey, did you know joe and ashley came to visit us? what? you can't tell from this picture?... well unfortunately it's the only one i took while they were here. (we love you guys!) we had fun... and joe, jordan, and jeriah reaped this bounty in the good old puget sound!

J has become an awesome little helper! he even helps feed E...

he operates under a "one for you, one for me" policy

he looks so sweet and innocent (don't trust him) he's a mover!

   *when sitting up or laying on his back he can scoot backwards 

   *when laying on his belly he can spin in circles

   *when set in a bear crawl position he can hold himself up 

and today he was working so hard to crawl... he'll be chasing J soon.

(in other news: he has officially cut his 5th and 6th teeth.)
