If my memory serves me right I think my spelling words in first grade consisted of words like go, to, my, see...I'm amazed at Busters weekly spelling words. This week I had to write them down so I would remember. They are:

explosion
vision
amnesia
mission
session
visions
facial
special
gracious
official
social
commercial

Hello...I think those are a little much for first grade. I have to give the kid credit though he gets 100% about 98% for the time. Either he gets it when it comes to spelling or he has a great memory. Did I mention I'm looking forward to summer?

I made homemade pizza again tonight. Yum. I made a pesto sauce for one of the pizza's and topped it with fresh tomatoes and deli mozzarella cheese. I think that is my new favorite pizza. I should have taken a picture. I also think I must workout double tomorrow for how much I enjoyed it tonight.

Here's the recipe for the homemade pizza dough.
2 cups warm water
2 over filled teaspoons of yeast
1/2 cup sugar
Let the above ingredients sit for 1/2 hour.
Then add:
5-6 cups flour
1/2 cup oil
and a pinch of salt
Mix altogether for 10-15 minutes
Cover and let it rise in the mixing bowl for 1 hour.
Split dough in 1/2 (I always get about 4 pans worth of dough so I split it in 4ths)
Roll out to desired thickness (I've found the thinner the better)
Put rolled dough on pan and let rise on pan for at least 1 hour.
Top with desired sauce and toppings and bake at 350 for 20-25 mins for a silver pan or 25-30 for a pizza stone.

This is a fun thing to make with kids. My boys like to add their own toppings by themselves.

Crate actually ate about 8 bites of rice cereal tonight and didn't gag it up. We're making progress. I tried a bottle again of formula but he wouldn't have anything to do with that.

It cracks me up when Pops puts on a bright orange suns shirt to watch the suns game here at home. He must feel some major Suns spirit!
