The Force will be with you, always.

Anyone have a bobcat?

This is the drift in our driveway.  Needless to say we'll be staying in for the evening. 

And now for the star...

A sweet sweet sound...

that I heard today was Baby #2's beating heart.  My doc (and I absolutely love her by the way) found it right away...beating strong and moving around a lot.   It always makes it feel that much more real.  Baby (we're going to have to come up with a more creative name than Baby #2) is due at the end of June.  It seems like a long time from now with all of this snow on the ground, doesn't it?  So there it is.  It's official.  Let the baby bump begin.

1st annual day after Thanksgiving Jake's Pizza party

Jake making the dough in a much smaller batch than he's used to!

Little Jake rolling his first dough ball.

Ready for Friday.

Scott's first official Jake's pizza.

Without the actual pizza ovens we improvised with the "Pizzaz" and baking stones in a 500 degree oven.

It's GOOD!

Mark giving Mike some tricks of the trade.

Two thumbs up from Jacob.  He told us he "really likes Grandpa's pizza".

Where are the aprons?

over the river and through the woods...

Jake has been busy at Grandma and Grandpa's all week and Scott and I were excited to get up there this past weekend.  Northern air is good for the soul.  Can I tell you that I slept 10 hours one night AND had a two hour nap one day.  Talk about well-rested.  Jake also sleeps great up there...I think he logged in a 3 hour nap three days straight.  

As Scott and I were packing up to come home yesterday Jacob comes running in and asks if he can stay at Grandma and Grandpa's.  (AKA the orphanage)  The kid was SO excited and just giggling at the thought of getting to stay.  It happens to work out great because my mom and dad are coming down Tuesday, so no problem for him to stay an extra day but I truly think there would have been some serious tears had we told him no.  Oh dear.  Can you blame him though?  How can we compete with wagon rides in the woods and tractors to "drive to the country". 

Thanks, mom and dad for your hospitality and entertaining the happiest boy in all the land.
