Surprise shower

Monday, October 27th, 2008 | Baby, House, gardening | No Comments

This weekend was eventful. Saturday morning we went to the garden nursery and bought some trees. We bought a pomegranate, pecan, peach and an apple tree. We also bought some pumpkins. Then, some girlfriends from Steph’s work surprised her with a baby shower that afternoon. It was an extremely well kept secret, and Steph was totally shocked. Little Camille made off like a bandit, with some great gear and some adorable clothes! Saturday night, after the shower, we hosted a few friends from Rémi’s work for dinner. Then Sunday Rémi planted all the trees. It was a great weekend!

A new day, a new blog. At least now you can all comment, and it should be faster loading. It might take a little while to get this blog up to speed, but for now here’s what we were up to this weekend. Will had a bath, since the vet told us he might be having some allergies. Now he smells like johnson’s baby wash! After washing him, Remi moved on to the slaab. Then we harvested the neglected garden, pulling out about 25 pounds of carrots (you think I’m joking…), a dozen or so onions, the same amount of shallots, and some zucchinis that really should have come out sooner. After making about 10 gallons of carrot soup, our weekend work was done. (In baby-related news, you can go to www.remiandsteph.com/baby.html for belly pics, updated today)
