Last year, we conquered the herb garden. So this year I thought we would give a vegetable garden a shot. Grant is in love with gardening right now, so I wanted him to be as involved as possible. And I am hoping that he will remind me to water the plants!
Grant is making sure the peppers are in the perfect place.
Inspecting his work.
Can't plant a garden without getting dirty! This may be his favorite part of gardening!
Planting his seeds...
... and watering. What a good little gardener!
We planted green peppers, red peppers, baby spinach, carrots and zucchini (no garden would be complete without zucchini).
We also bought a tomato plant. We're starting out really small. I don't have the best record when it comes to keeping plants alive. However, Grant is really showing that he has a true knack for gardening!!!Funny side note: We've been potty training for weeks now. Grant's favorite way to pee-pee is to go outside and 'water the plants.' I'll pretty much let him do anything to keep him from peeing on my carpet. Anyway, when we were done planting, I asked Grant to water the plants. He pulled down his pants and was about to pee on our tomato plant! I quickly stopped him and told him we would NOT be peeing in this garden... we have to EAT the product!
