DOES OUR GARDEN WIN AN AWARD?

Maybe Ollie is right and our garden does compare to the Chelsea Flower Show!? (I joke)

I wasn't surprised when you said you had put Teddy down in the wardrobe area for a nap. I always thought it would be a good place for him whilst he is very small. Your seating area looks very nice. I keep my hydrangeas out of full sun and water frequently when it is hot but they will let you know when they are thirsty! If you can, I suggest putting some of your small pot plants on top of the slabs holding the umbrella shade up. It would prevent anyone, including little Teddy from tripping up.

Hey, Laura. I was so glad to see your post today. I’m sorry you all have been under the weather with a cold. Teddy is growing so fast. You all look so happy as a family, even Otto. The flowers looked beautiful. I love hydrangeas too. The roses in England are always so beautiful! Looking forward to next week. ❤

[@aliceinwonderland.2080]

Hi guys! Your garden is looking very pretty so I hope you get plenty of sunshine to sit out there. Teddy and Otto are just so sweet and when you were sitting on your garden sofa, it would have made a beautiful family photo. Glad you and Ollie are feeling better.💖🌸

You all look so happy and healthy. Your garden looks lovely, lots of watering needed with those potted plants, as I am sure you are aware - I have a tiny garden, and all my plants are in pots, so I have one of those extendable hoses, which is great, as it shrinks back down after use into a very small hose, and I store mine in a plastic round tub. I also have two small water buts, to catch all the rain I can, as the plants prefer this to tap water of course. Teddy is adorable, as is Oscar, and it is so good that your love is given to everyone. Lovely video, thank you. Blessings and love from Jilly & rescue greyhound Madge, from West Devon, England. xxx

Hi Guys….Teddy is just adorable!…what a cutie pie! ❤ Please frame that picture of your beautiful family sitting under your garden roses…perfect! 😊📷

[@giuliantoneIIi]

Ahh, you were missed last week! Glad you're feeling better!

[@martiocallaghan1656]

Hi Laura. So glad you are both over your colds and back filming. You were missed, but understandably. Can’t believe how fast the baby is growing. You both are so lovable and attentive parents. It is easy to see the love. Your garden idea was great. Love the green space you created with just planters. Looking forward to your next video. Thank u for sharing!🤗

[@Debbie-kt6ck]

No pressure Laura make the most of this time with gorgeous little Edward your Roses are beautiful

[@louisep1962]

Your garden is looking really good! It's going to be spectacular with all the white hydrangeas. I'm glad you're feeling better, I missed you last week.

[@nickmelnik735]

Suggestion from a gardener, slide your square hydrangea pots over onto the bad grass area, and open up a little more prime paver area, especially for when teddy is crawling ❤ obviously do what you want also! 🤪

[@siancox5846]

Awww your little boys happy sounds in the background of your videos are just the cutest . Xx

[@sylvianblue]

oo please be careful with rawhide chews. I stopped giving them to mine once I realised they can be dangerous for dogs tummies.

[@kittyinserra5650]

Just an FYI. This morning I was deadheading my hydrangeas and my dog grabbed and ate a flower and a stem. He was very sick within a half hour. Learned they are toxic to dogs the hard way. All well now. Just wanted you to be aware to pick up everything!

[@smgreenartsprivate]

I would put the herbs higher as toxic to Otto maybe on high shelving outside? there are solar lighting you can get to install on the fence or outside your home. Glad you two are feeling better :) Once you finish your shed and a bit of seeding on the grass area why not an award for you is a charming garden you have :) will you get a swing for Teddy out of doors a little area he can play safely in shade outside when he's older. Whenever you can post is fine take care of yourselves and enjoy your summer :)

[@teresahalliday3680]

Your roses are stunning!! I am not a gardener, but I am growing some herbs and always check to see plants effects on cats (and they usually give info on dog too). I bought mint and read that is is toxic to both cats and dogs. Also, I read that mint will harm plants with more delicate root systems. Again, I'm not a gardener, but have researched for my purposes, mainly regarding pets. Just wanted to share that info. Your garden looks beautiful and so private. Teddy is gorgeous!

[@johnniealford25]

Teddy’s sounds are so very sweet! Enjoy your beautiful garden!

[@tracey8506]

I think your garden looks lovely ❤

[@carolannaitken5812]

Your garden is beautiful, a lot of hard work has transformed the place into an oasis.

[@sheilarowan8664]

WOW the garden is looking so beautiful well done ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@carolrosedavies7725]

Glad your feeling better ! You get gold for making the effort with a little one ! Love your roses what are they called?

[@alanjones9742]

Hi laura wonderful to see you and edward your garden is truly pretty and eward pick the right time to wake up at lunch time ha ha the joys of mother hood a house is just a house with out children is a family lots of love to a wonderful couple❤😊😅

[@jennyo9734]

Get something booked whilst he is at this age! I did a UK getaway last year with a 5 month old and it was the best time to do it. I am currently packing to fly tomorrow for a two week trip with my now walking 14 month old... whilst being 7 months pregnant... with a cold 😂 I have lists within lists as long as my arm, wish me luck 🤞

[@casswilson3964]

Excited to see a video from you. Loving the garden content 🍃

[@SKRIBBLEproductions]

I'm from Wales, you should pop to Cardiff bay for a walk if the weather is nice. Newport is a bit dead as an area especially after covid

[@carolynhopkinson8642]

Love Teddy’s new clothes, book a holiday while he’s at an easy age x

[@sharon2714]

beautiful garden ,where did you get your wicker planters from? thanks

[@leahharper5891]

Hello! I have the same dress! How do you wash it!? I’d love to be able to put it in the machine!!! Xx

[@katarzynaciszewska6355]

So happy to see this video

[@1012chart]

Me too!

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

It’s a lovely garden.🌱

[@anniemacsrecommendations3883]

Such a beautiful baby he is thriving 💙

[@gemmaknight8856]

Loved this video as always. Thank you for always making the best content ❤❤❤

[@annalp7520]

Teddy is just scrumptious!! 😍😍

[@emmamurton2735]

My sister put my niece in her wardrobe too - dark and cool over summer 😂

[@jojenks8688]

Just a quick observation, don’t give Otto any chew sticks made out of raw hide, it’s a by product of the leather industry and not good for dogs! Loads of better chews out there .

[@Tracys_Little_Patch_of_Dirt]

Totally agree they really upset my dogs tummy so now she doesn't have them.

[@SKRIBBLEproductions]

Hi Laura, I noticed your new bed in your master looks like the one I might get from dusk, if its from dusk do you recommend the quality of the ottoman / is it lasting okay?

[@tablettifeikki]

She explains it in this video: END OF AN ERA

[@SKRIBBLEproductions]

@@tablettifeikki thank you!!

[@soniagallaher3544]

Roses are looking beautiful!

[@Tracys_Little_Patch_of_Dirt]

Hi Laura I'm confused why do you need passports to go to Wales. The last time I went was many years ago I didn't need one have things changed. Think I'm just getting old 😅

[@kelseytheresa]

Teddy is so adorable!

[@sylvianblue]

Your whispery voice is really lovely!! Lovely to listen to 😊

[@lorikegley3327]

I forgot to ask you if you would dump the planters outside so I can plant my new acquisitions

[@nickywilks7928]

I think it's beautiful Laura.

[@melaniewest3947]

The garden is looking pretty

[@caronmistry6171]

Gorgeous baby boy ❤

[@isabellasamueli8774]

CIAO LAURA SONO ISABELLA E TI SCRIVO DALL ITALIA , HAI UN GIARDINO STUPENDO🤩😍🤩😍🤩 PER NON PARLARE DELLE ROSE DIETRO LA PANCHINA.

[@lorenebell9420]

The manicurist was terrible with my nails, didn’t even last 2 days without chipping. I don’t know if I had a bad batch but it was terrible and the customer service was so unhelpful.

[@maryharrison8938]

Sorry Laura you’re talking to fast can’t get what you saying

[@anitawoollard7087]

Agree. I've watched Laura for years and lately I think she's mumbling more and hard to understand at times. I'm Australian and used to hearing English in multiple accents, but I find that Laura mumbles and needs to slow down and speak clearly!

[@liebundteuer]

I‘m not a native speaker and can understand her as well as before. 🤔

[@ali_jane2936]

The beginning seemed much speedier than usual! If you click on the video and look for the gear symbol there's a great Playback Speed option, try 0.75 The voice still sounds normal not like an old record on the wrong speed 😆

[@ali_jane2936]

Hopefully (for Laura's sake too!) the cold will be out of her throat next time. Glad she didn't seem too stressed about them having been sick with a very small baby

[@tablettifeikki]

I put on the English subtitles, that helps.

[@lindamccormack9862]

So what’s your married name and are you changing your channel name?

[@margotwelland2459]

Do you really put Teddy in the wardrobe 🙈🧐😬
