Baby Cookies

Ever since he ate the last little frosted angel cookie after Christmas, Connor has been relentless with his pleas for "mo baby cookies." With Valentine's Day around the corner, it seemed appropriate to grant his wish. Mischa happened to be spending the night at Aunt Tin's, so we got them involved with the baking as well. Connor and Mischa took turns adding the ingredients to the mixing bowl. When it came time to lick the beater, they even took turns doing that. Well, until Connor took matters into his own hands . . .

Yep, all was going well when to Mischa's dismay, Connor decided taking little tastes wasn't nearly as good as actually licking the beater. She was a good sport and graciously handed over the entire beater. He was in seventh heaven licking it clean. When it came time to decorate the cookies, Connor helped a little. Well, he helped eat the candy that was supposed to decorate the cookies. He also took the initiative to deliver a few conversation hearts to his Dada, who was trying to stay as far away from the baking as possible. He soon lost interest in the decorating of the cookies and decided to play some basketball with his cousin for a while instead. However, when it came time to eat the finished product, he promptly resumed his post.
