Pizza Night!

The rest of our Christmas break was very relaxing. We spent a lot of time relaxing at Grandma and Grandpa's house. I did get a chance to spend an afternoon with Anna helping "prepare" for Baby D. Then Shawn and Anna came over to see the boys. Luke was excited to see them. But the real story from the week was Ben and his office. Grandma has a great set up in the back bedroom. Not only is there a shelf of toys but there's a tv with cable hooked up so Nick Jr. and Disney can play alllllllll day long. Ben spent every waking moment in that room. And you could usually find him sittin
g in or on a laundry basket. Yep, that's how Ben spent his Christmas break. In a basket.



Luke would join him if the show was REALLY good.



We ended our break with a family tradition...PIZZA NIGHT!
Aunt Jan and Uncle Steve and the girls (and boys) come over to make homemade pizzas. It was a great night. Luke loved playing with baby Sophia.


He tried to cheer her up with peek a boo.


And the kids even helped with the pizza dough. Luke and Sam were very good listeners.

Daddy helped smoosh down the dough.


Sam and Aunt Jan work on a crust together.


Ben let the other kids in on the great basket seat idea.


Then Ben took a turn making some crust.


Aunt Jan teaches Ben correct techinque.


After dinner Ben and Sophia spend some time discussing life at the bottom.






Great Grandma and Ben talk about Luke's new cars.


We were going to leave for home the next day but holiday food and exhaustion from late nights caught up with me and my tummy didn't let us leave until Monday morning. We can't wait to be back in St. Charles!

Adelaide has the same outfit as Sophia is wearing the pictures of her and Ben. With all that dark hair, I was like "Wait! When did Adelaide meet Kathy's boys?" That's right, they haven't met yet. :( But hopefully soon!! They have been so great to have. We still have a few left. I will be sad when they are gone.
