We need help with a name!

We normally already have a name picked out for our children by now. With Julia the name was picked out while we were dating, before he ever left on a mission and I just remembered it and loved it and thought I’d use it even if we didn’t get married. With Haley it was a little harder I liked the name Jordan Haley for a girl and he liked it too. Then someone in the ward had their baby first and it was a boy and named him Jordan. So we decided they would be close in age and school together maybe, so we changed the name to Haley Storm. With this one we have yet to agree on any name. I suggested Kameron before we found out it was girl. He thought it was ok now he says Kameron is not girly enough. We went to a dedication for a gravesite on Saturday so I looked at other headstones that were close and came up with Morgan Blake, he says that's not very girly either. He thought I was crazy trying to pull names off headstones at the cemetery! He likes names like Lindsey, Rachel, Gracie, Lacy, Ava , and of course I don’t like them.  I also suggested Kaylyn he didn’t like it of course. He suggested Kayla I had to remind him he had a niece in Organ already name Kayla. We’ve only got 4 months left to find something. We’ve went thru a baby name book and he said I was to picky! Whatever ! I think I get the final say! Right! Any suggestions I can throw at him?

Lets play Name that Plant!

Ok we planted a garden this year and it would have probably done a lot better if all the rain hadn’t drown most of it. The tomatoes are doing great we have about 30 plants or more of all kinds of tomatoes. A few of our squash or cucumber plants made it. The leaf looks the same to me so I’m not positive but I know its one or the other. These are a few of the plants that survived and I have no idea what they are! Do You????? Can anyone help????

1 this one is kind of like a vine about 4-5 feet now growing on the ground. No blooms, no vegetable yet. Any ideas????

2 These are next to each other no idea what it is. It also has no blooms and no vegetable yet. It’s about foot and half to 2 feet tall???

3 This I think is a bean. We only planted green beans. But we didn’t plant them in this row. It does have tiny white flowers on it so I guess we’ll find out for sure in a few weeks what it is????

4 There are 2 of these no blooms, no vegetable. I think they are maybe okra plants but I don’t know they are about foot and half tall. ?????

5 last one it’s about 2-3 feet tall no blooms, no vegetable, and it is growing in the middle of two rows.  Not sure what or why it is there. There are a lot of weeds growing around everything but none of them look like this so I figured it was a veggie????? Any Suggestions

We planted a lot of different things: Cauliflower, okra green beans, potatoes, corn, tomatoes, lettuces, spinach, purple carrots, watermelon, squash, cucumbers, about 3 different pepper plants. I think that was it. Some of these I have never seen grow so I have no idea what they look like, and the seed packages i ordered online were all gold wrappers no pictures!

First day of VPK!

 

Julia had her first day of VPK today. She was so excited weeks before. Last Thursday there was a VPK workshop that we went to and she got to meet several of the kids that would be in her class, and they read a book called The Kissing Hand. It was about a raccoon who did not want to go to school, very cute book. Two days before she started to get upset about it and told me she didn't want to go, and would cry. So on Sunday after church I told Paul to give her a blessing. Well she cried several times after that. She wanted mom to stay with her. I explained I already went to school and was to old to go to VPK. We said several prayers Sunday night, with her crying before bed. This morning she was ok she did not cry at all. We got there 15 minutes early and I gave her a sticker of lips that went long with the book the kissing hand. She liked the sticker and I reminded her about the book. Then she got to meet her 2 teachers. One we knew from church (Sister Zedenek) that we had not seen in about 2 years so Julia did not remember her. She recognized us immediately and said she was excited when she saw Julia's name on the role. She took Julia over to the table and sat her down with a coloring book, and went out to get breakfast and the few others stragglers that were still coming in. I waited a few minutes thinking she may start to cry if I told her bye. And some of the other moms started to leave so Julia decided it was time for me to go too. She gave me a hug and kiss, and said, "I'll miss you mommy!" Of course I did start to cry so I went ahead and left so I didn't upset her. But as I opened the door I looked back to take a picture of her and she had this cute little face, and of course I cried all the way home!

They grow up way to fast!
