The Landscaping is FINISHED!

Tim Smith @ his crew @ Hill Country Landscapes finished the patio, sprinkler system, & seeded the yard today. Unfortunately it was too dark to post photos tonight, so we'll take some more tomorrow.

World's Most Dangerous Job

I have been watching the Discovery Channel with Mom & Dad...there is a show about the world's most dangerous job - King Crab Fishing, but I don't see what is so dangerous about it, I caught this giant crab right in my bathtub!

The 'Baby' Lion Tamer

I remember it like it was yesterday or rather the day before yesterday....I had been in the jungle for weeks, deliberately tracking this magnificent beast. Then one morning I cornered him.....I had just changed my diaper and had a belly full of milk, so I was ready to rumble. I slowly crept up on him and then I pounced....amazingly enough, my trusty guide, Mommy, snapped this photo right before I wrestled the beast to the ground.

We've Got Trees!

Trees have now been added to the vast wasteland that was our backyard.......our giant checkerboard patio is slowly coming along as well.

Landscaping Update

Well the sprinkler system is in....now for the patio. Today they started clearing the area for the new expanded patio and they dug the holes for the trees around the yard.

Sure mom whatever you say...

Davis' Golf Tip

Half-way back in your golf swing, the toe of the club needs to be pointing straight up and the shaft parallel to your target line.

And remember what Daddy says...you can't go for the green in two if you got a belly full of breast milk.

Easter '06

Good evening...
A quick post before I have to go to bed...
Enjoyed my first Easter, not quite sure what the connection between a large bunnie hiding eggs and J.C.'s resurrection, but I enjoyed the day just the same. Went to church this morning, we were a little late, so we got the primo seat down front. All of the standing up and singing wore me out, so I took a nap. Spent the afternoon @ my grandma Gaile and grandpa Mel's house. We had lunch, read the paper, and just relaxed. Tonight was bath night and then we surveyed the work on the backyard. I am going to go and throw a fit and then fall asleep.

Love,
Davis

Landscaping Part 1

One of the major "To-Do's" in regards to our house has been landscaping. So after weeks of speaking/negotiating with landscape contractors, we found one we liked (Tim Smith of Hill Country Landscaping - FYI). They started trenching the backyard yesterday for the sprinkler system and as you can see by the photos, they ran into a few rocks. Hopefully by next week they will start on the patio expansion. Needless to say, the dogs did not enjoy the sound or the sight of strange people working in 'their' yard.

Hello World....

Hello Family! I just got back from my 4 month check up at the doctor. It was fun at first....& I enjoyed playing with the doctor & showing him how I can hold my head up & roll over & all. But, then I got upset when the nurse gave me 3 shots in my legs. Ouch! Daddy came along too (mommy was a weanie the first time she said), so he helped me be brave & get through it. I'm a big boy! & the doctor always calls me a "funny little guy" hehehe I'm 15 lbs. 11 oz (50-75th percentile) & 26 1/2 inches tall! (90-95th percentile...I'm a tall boy!) And, Aunt Mimi & Aunt Stacey....my head is "normal" size they say! haha I love you all! Love, Davis
