McGrath Farm

Spring has finally arrived….or so the calendar says. We are hoping the frost is done and Shaun can start his garden. I am more excited for this year because not only will we get to enjoy the garden once again, but Spencer will be able to too. AND my wonderful friend Becca (“Whoot! Whoot!) got me a Beaba baby food maker. She knows me very well and figured if anyone in the world was going to make her own baby food, it would be me, and of course Shaun’s organic garden would be the ultimate supplier. In a few months we will be grazing on raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, cherry tomatoes, different varieties of lettuce, spinach, sugar peas, green beans, summer squash, zucchini, artichokes, asparagus, corn and carrots. Oddly we don’t live on a farm, but someday I’m sure. Last summer we got a kiddie pool for my girlfriends daughter Hayden. She loved it. I can’t wait for Spencer to play in it this year. Here are some pics that make me excited to spend the summer in the garden with Spencer.

Good morning, good mooooorning!

Yes, it's morning, 4:25AM to be exact and I'm WIDE-EYED and AWAKE! I just put Spencer down and can hear him doing his normal grunting on the monitor in the bedroom. He does this grunting thing all the time, we have nick named him Billy, since he sounds like a Billy goat. He doesn't seem to be doing it out of pleasure, but more likely because of gas??? It's hard to not laugh at him and whip out the camcorder. He is such a joy, Shaun and I are completely in love.

A quick hello!

I'm sorry it's been so long but I am in a whole new world. It's absolutely incredible! I give Spencer at least 100 kisses a day and the few times I’ve had to leave him I have missed him terribly. I don’t want to leave his sweet little face ever, and I am wondering hoW my friends are going to tolerate me because I’m not sure how I will ever make another wine night without him! :-) Everything has been just great. Shaun is SOOOO involved. Spencer and I are truly blessed. He is the most amazing dad and husband, I never knew life could be so good. Our family and friends have been very helpful too and I want them all to know how appreciative we are of their yummy dinners and time spent hanging around so I could vacuum or take a shower. Here are some pics of our little angel in his 1st weeks of life. Love to you all!!!
