Actually, he’s looking a lot less weedy these days.

Yeah. Now that the boy is four, he’s starting to look like something other than an underfed six-month-old.
Also – pointing his ass end uphill and shooting him at a bit of an angle makes the boy look a wee bit manlier.

Do you really think he looks better put together than last year? I see the little dork every day, so it’s hard to tell.

He does look finished now, not so contingent.

I’ve also noticed in the past couple of months that Tuck too no longer looks like I’m starving him. Late bloomers for sure. Audie is looking good. (And when am I getting those promised “weeds”?)

Weed shipment will occur once we have enough snow/frost free days to allow the purslane to sprout.
At the rate we’re going, this should be some time in late August…

Beware of mutant dandelions. You heard it here first.

My theory is that late bloomer = in for the long haul.
How these guys came out of two such precocious parents, I cannot explain.
