Say Cheese!

We have some great news!

Connor has been eating dairy off and on for about a week now.

We're taking it very slow.  So far so good.

Normally, we make two pizzas, but not today.

Today we got out the large pizza pan... 18 1/2" large.

This thing is so big it almost doesn't fit in our oven.

We put cheese on the entire pizza.

He thinks cheese is "awesome".

Evidence of Children #1

Because I am the person I am, I will take a picture of almost anything.

I was in the middle of making supper when I discovered the boots.

Then I saw the screen door open.

(I'm amazed that neither the kitty nor the dog let themselves in!)

And the piles of weapons.

I'm not sure how the kitten and the baby gate entered the battle.

By the way, the kitten's name is Garfield.  He's Nolan's new cat.

Grandpa's Office

We got a chance to see my dad's "office" this weekend.

He was able to have some shut down time at a truck stop near us.

We picked him up and visited for a few hours.

Grandpa gave us a tour inside his tractor trailer.

The boys loved it and said it was awesome.

They asked us if we could have one!

A beautiful dark blue 2013 Peterbuilt.

(That's my favorite color.)

The boys with grandpa.

He showed them where he slept & kept his gear. 

Way too happy to be in the driver's seat.

He does realize it's several years before he can drive...

He's already asking how old he has to be.

That time will be here before we know it. 

Thankfully his feet still dangle off the seat.

No thoughts of driving yet from this one.
