First batch of seeds started!

Yesterday Abby and I got our hands dirty and planted some bulbs that DH brought home to us. Don't ask me what kind of bulbs they are because he chunked the package out before I got to read it and her just handed us a bag of bulbs to plant. Well, we guessed about how deep to plant 'em and how much sun they need and we're hoping that with a little extra TLC they'll be sproutin' in a few weeks!

Abby is a master gardener. She gets lots of practice at her grannys house.
You have to pat the dirt down gently, like this!
They need lots of water to grow!
Here are Abbys flower ( well, her flower POTS anyway : ) She is so proud of them and she checks on them several times a day :)

Tip of the day~ Don't throw out that water that you boiled your eggs in! Let it cool down to room temperature and water your houseplants and seedlings with it! It's a natural fertilizer!
