Christmas Cookies and Princesses

The kids and I spent one Thursday morning baking Christmas cookies. Baking with kids especially when there is a lot of flour involved takes a lot of patience. I did pretty well for a while and then after they ate the 100th piece of dough I told them I was going to finish by myself. They were fine with watching Cinderella after I promised them they could decorate the cookies later. Does anyone know where I can get cute aprons for them? I want something with their names on them for a reasonable price.


Baby Emma loves to suck on her fingers. She's not attached to a certain one as you can see. She is so much fun these days. She rolls all over the floor and is getting really close to sitting up on her own.


Mark may kill me for posting this but remember he's only 3. Parker that is not Mark. :) His favorite princess is Cinderella and he may be enjoying the movie more than Maryn. Joseph and Sarah gave it to Maryn for Christmas and I let them open it on a rainy day before Christmas. Side note- they gave Parker Hullabaloo which is a great game for kids. It gets them moving which will be wonderful this winter when its too cold to go outside.


Maryn usually dresses up as Aurora. I think she likes her best because she wears a pink dress and right now M loves anything pink. I am looking for a new kitchen table and when I told her yesterday that we were going to look for a new one at some furniture stores she asked what kind. I told her one for the kitchen and asked what kind she thought we should get... pink, of course!
