Day of the Mom

Today, I received a pan of Steve’s famous pecan cinnamon rolls:

Happy Mother’s day to both of mine, and all the rest of you who continue to understand that this is not just a job, it’s an adventure.

Recently, watching Stella ride her tricycle was like watching something straight from the circus. Something involving the world’s tallest woman and a Barbie bike. An upgrade was definitely in order. However, Stella being Stella, we couldn’t just upgrade to the next size in the natural progression, we were instead forced to skip straight from pipsqueak bikes to regular old kid bikes, which means one thing: the girl can now haul some serious ass. Behold, the Gremlin:
