Christmas Baking Fun



With the week before Christmas full of baking, I thought it would be fun for the kids to have lots of decorating type cookies! So we did.








Every time Briton cut out a little shape he would say with delight, "DONE!" He so enjoyed it.




Decorating Sugar Cookies


We began with making sugar cookies and then the kids used sprinkles to decorate them. Briton saw me getting out all the candy bowls ( on the counter above) to make the gingerbread houses and his little head would occasionally pop up near the counter. He would say, "Dandy?" and I would have to shoo him away... again... again...





Finally I let him have the last few sprinkles from the bowl. He thought that wonderful!




"Eat?"

Shortly after that his little body popped up again near the icing bowl. "Eat?" he asked sweetly? "No!" I said, as I gently remove him from the stool again!! *laugh* He has such a sweet personality and accepts what I say, but it had to be hard this week with all the 'dandies' and sweets that we were working with.




Yummy!


Finally, I gave him the icing mixer to lick and he was happy!
