Five Guys with my Two Guys

Yesterday hubs decided it was time for me to try Five Guys. So, after a morning of carpet shopping for the baby's room, we stopped for a bite to eat.


I ordered a cheeseburger. Note to those who aren't in the know, their cheeseburgers are DOUBLE cheeseburgers. If you want a single, order a junior. I didn't know that. Also, if you're wanting toppings, you have to specify what you want, otherwise it's plain.


Another note, a single order of large fries is more than enough for two adults and an 8 year old in the middle of a HUGE growth spurt. (Cajun fries are good)


The little guy wanted a grilled cheese. He got one with lettuce, tomato, and mayo. It was quite tasty.

Final report, hubs had another great idea. Five Guys serves excellent burgers. Not too expensive (if you know how to order). Oh, I almost forgot to mention, they give you free peanuts too. We didn't partake, but, fun nonetheless.

Ice Cream Truck

While I never experienced the ice cream truck driving by my house as a kid (we lived in the country), it is something that happens on a regular basis in our neighborhood during summer months.

Hubs and I were in the backyard working on the pool and the garden when the little guy stuck his head in an opening in the fence and said, "Dudes, the ice cream truck, the ice cream truck!!!"

Needless to say, he stopped it while Dad searched for loose change and I the camera. When all was said and done, our little guy, his buddy from across the street, and his buddy's little sister were all one sorbet bar heavier.

I love the summer!

Garden Part Deux

Here are the pictures I promised. Not much to look at now, but, something to remember as the summer progresses. Yes, there are weeds already, we're pacing ourselves....

Garden

It was bound to happen. We finally got around to planting our garden. Don't ask what took so long, we are about 1/2 month behind our regularly late schedule. In all my excitement, I forgot to take pictures. I'll be out to take some when it's light out and post what we've started with this year. For now, I'll leave you with a rundown of what we have:

Roma tomatoes
Sugar peas
Bell peppers (2 varieties)
Salsa peppers
Cucumbers
Zucchini
Strawberries
Pumpkins
Watermelon

The Importance of Reading

Guess who has decided he needs to start reading to the baby every night? I am totally loving these moments!

Squee!!! First baby item!

I'm excited. We're going to get the first thing for the baby that's new! I'm LOVING all of the things that my friends have given me (we were the first of our friends to have a baby the first time and didn't get lucky 2nds), BUT, this is the first thing for baby #2 that won't be a hand me down. Also, hubs doesn't want a 2nd hand carseat and that's ok. I understand his concerns. That, and I TOTALLY love this stroller/car seat combo.

It's the same stroller as before, BUT, hubs picked the color out. He done good!


The color is called, "Romantic". Fitting don't you think?
