Hungry? How about Tonefire?

For his birthday, Middle-G got a gift card from Grandma to go to Stonefire Pizza, and we decided to use it Monday since my husband had a half day of work. I think pizza is Middle-G's favorite, and him and Big-G both love Stonefire. Big-G has been calling it Tonefire because he refuses to say his S's. He can say them, but he just refuses to. He just started saying them a little recently because Middle-G says them. I guess when the little brother starts doing it, it's time to get your act together!

Anyway, they had a blast. Thank you Grandma! I think we were there for almost 5 hours. We ate and ate, and the boys played and played. Big-G loved playing in the make-believe kitchen. As usual, Middle-G loved the water table. He ended up soaked because daddy let him take his smock off. We had good timing because we ate lunch, and the kids basically had the place to themselves for a few hours. Then we ate supper before we left, so no cooking for me when we got home. Too bad we can't do that every day, but we would probably all die of heart disease.


Yesterday, Papa came over and took Big-G outside to play. They had a fun time digging out the swing set and sliding down the slide. It's hard to get hurt when there is a foot of snow on the ground and you're bundled up like a mummy! I just love winter because everything gets covered with snow, and there isn't any yard work. On the other hand, we will all be glad when we can start going to the zoo again, take walks and play outside more often.

I've got a lot of pictures this time. I actually took some of Little-G. You were probably starting to think I was making him up!


Here is Little-G just lounging around on the couch.
