So I spent the end of April working on our yard/landscaping and was so proud and thought it looked beautiful and couldn't wait for all my petunias to start blooming so we could win "Yard of the Month" (again - haha just had to throw the "again" in) and then our yard received several blows...
The first was that only a few days after completing all this work I found out was pregnant...and all of the sudden I just didn't care about the yard any more and didn't want to maintain it in the heat.
Second, my "helpers" did some damage to my work. 
Third, I realized most of our plants in front were Blackspot infested...so when we sprayed them for with Blackspot fungicide it it killed the flowers I planted...a lot of the bushes died quickly thereafter anyway...however, our weeds are still thriving. It's a disaster.
On a lighter note, here's J.R. "sleeping with the geckos." That's what he wanted to do after he spotted one right above this spot while I was working in the yard. My mom is going to die when she sees his "blanket" b/c it's very sentimental. When he got up he was covered in a strange rash that eventually went away, but we never figured out what he was allergic to. He sure does love the bugs and critters!!!!
