Planting the Seeds

A few weeks ago Ethan and I purchased some new seeds. He picked them out. We got pumpkins and tomatoes, basil, parsley, and some other herbs. Today since the sun was shining in the morning we went outside to start them in some egg cartons. We filled them up with starter soil, put in the seeds, and watered them. Now we wait (that's the hard part for both of us :) . Ethan enjoyed being outside, but despite the sunshine it was still pretty chilly at 9 am so we went back inside when we finished the seeds. That only made one of us happy. We went out again to go to the store, and we decided it was a nice day for a little ride afterwards, so we went to Toy Journey. Ethan played with their train table and then he picked out a toy helicopter and magnifying glass. We haven't got many small car toys, so that was the idea w/ the helicopter, and I imagine he'll want to be outside more this summer so the magnifying glass should come in handy to keep him occupied while I try pulling weeds.
