Mateo made his first collage!

I wondered what Mateo was up to as I got ready for work this morning. He had such focus on his face, as he created this simple collection of photos. As he places his last piece down he looks up and says, "look mom, cookies!" To him it was just a reminder of time spent with his mommy and daddy making cookies. To me it was his first independently created art piece. Am I exaggerating a little bit, maybe. Am I a proud mama, for sure.

Dinner Time!!! Broccoli vs. Pizza

I made an awesome homemade pizza today from semi-scratch! It was really good!! I had to stop myself from eating after four squares. I bought a thin crust dough, so it was easy to scarf down. Usually Mateo is exited about pizza, but he woke up on the wrong side of the bed after his nap, so he is super cranky! Surprisingly enough, one of his favorite foods is BROCCOLI so I offered to steam some up for him and he agreed. What a strange little child that I have who prefers to have steamed broccoli over pizza any day! He just turned to me and nodded his head and said," Mmmmmm!"
