Happy Fall!

Making Cookies

Yesterday the kids and I made chocolate chip cookies (Rodney's favorite). We had a great time... I felt a little like a "super mom" letting them sit on the counters, make a mess, eat cookie dough AND cookies, even let Noelle wash the dishes!

Here are a few photos from our cookie making fun... hopefully I'll take the time to let them get dirty in the kitchen more often!!! It's fun and who cares about the mess right? We'll worry about that later! ;)

Lately...

Lately, Noelle has been asking me while I'm making dinner where we're going to go after "breakthast" (aka breakfast). When she first started asking me this a few weeks back I corrected her thinking she wanted to know where we were going after dinner, since I was making dinner... well, I soon figured out that she knew exactly what she was talking about and wanted to know where we were going after "breakthast" - tomorrow! This has become an everyday thing and it's cute to see her reaction to the different things we have planned. She gets excited if we are going somewhere and has little to no response if I tell her we're not planning on going anywhere. A girl who loves to be on the go!
