WATER BABY
FUTURE MOVIE STAR?
Mystery solved: My tomato problem was, indeed, caused by birds. Those crafty little creatures were crawling under the bird net to get tomatoes. How do I know? I saw them! I felt awful because, as I came charging out of the house to chase them away, one poor little bird got caught in the net in his haste to escape my wrath. I freaked out trying to get him free... NOW, I am battling drought, high heat and blossom-end rot. Oh well. (I was assured by a professional gardener that, "growing anything in Texas is the hardest thing you will ever do." I agree. Babies included!)
FAITH AND RENEE BECAME FAST FRIENDS
Renee, a.k.a. Dr.Thai, came up to visit on her way to her new life as a private practice obstetrician at Ft. Scott, KS. It was great catching up with a dear friend, and "talking shop." I really do miss being a Labor and Delivery nurse at times. Ultimately, my role as private nurse to Faith and Baby Peanut is so much more important!
FAITH AND DADDY LOUNGE BY THE POOL
Faith has taken to the water like a duck. She's had so much fun splashing around, and pulls out her swimsuit regularly to demand to be taken to the pool. I am proud to announce that her Filipino genes are shining through. She and I got fabulous tans last week (despite sunscreen.) Jason did not fare as well and truly earned his nickname "Redneck." I told Faith that, if she keeps up her love of water, maybe Nana will take her snorkeling in the Philippines one day. I'm not too sure if I will ever tell her about Aunt Katie's love of scuba diving...
WHY ARE MATERNITY SWIMSUITS SO HIDEOUS?

Oh what sweet pictures! Thank goodness Faith got your ability to tan instead of Jason's tendency to burn.
If it makes you feel any better... my tomatoes (in the topsy-turvy growers) aren't fabulous either -- they both have 3 tomatoes on them but it doesn't look like they are setting any more blooms! The Marshall's are going to have to find another source for the lycopene this summer, home grown are in short supply. Farmer's market, here I come.
Well, despite the limited choice of maternity swim wear, you still look great!
PS -- PawPaw LOVED the surf & turf (the lobster was exceptional).

Yay! Glad to have you back!
Faith is just too cute in swimming attire, as are you!
Poor Jason and his curse-ed whiteness. Me and my whiteness would kill for your Filipino genes!
