It looks like Borage, Borago officinalis but it is difficult to see in that picture. It could also be Trachstemon orientalis. Hard to tell.

Something in the Apiaceae. I'm not familiar with Carol23's suggestion but it looks a possibility from images.

Looks like Vicia cracca or something similar. If it is V. cracca, don't let it in your yard! I'm not familiar with the other species of vicia, so don't know if they're also an invasive plant.
