MY BABY IS ONE!

Okay, I'm talking about my first avocado tree everyone!  On Feb 4th my first avocado tree I planted turned one year old.  It did go by fast...but three years to go until I get an avocado!  I WILL get one.  I planted my second one on June 24th (see the second picture) and so it's just over 7 months old.  My third one has been in water for about a month and I'll be planting it in a pot this weekend.  You have to have more than one for cross-pollenation!  This has been a really fun project for Alex and me to do together, talking about how things grow and seeing the progress of the seeds.  The three trees will be making the trip up North when Alex and I move in June! 




I threw these two funny pictures of Alex up from last night...he's such a ham in the costumes.  I told him to show me his gladiator face for the second picture.  Vicious!
