I cleaned the kitchen this morning and then decided we should dirty it! The girls and I grabbed our aprons and went to work! Chocolate Chip Cookies!!! We pulled some chairs up the the island and the girls took turns adding the ingredients.

Hannah loved watching each ingredient mix in! I should have recorded it – she was squealing!!

A little bit dirty.

Every once and a while they appear to really like each other :)

It is always fun when Mom splits the chocolate chip bag while she is opening it!!!!

This is right where Lynn STOPS the cookie making process :) Since kids were involved we went ahead and baked them. So sorry Lynn :)

I LOVE my Pampered Chef scooper!

Perfect little cookies!

Speaking of things I love — my oven is fantastic too! Thank goodness this one has a window!

Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock

FINALLY!!!!

In, Out, Waiting…

Yummy!!! We had a great morning!

I was standing outside talking to Tim (roof guy) and then I heard it – a very distorted POP GOES THE WEASEL!! Panic struck when I realized I didn’t have any dollars. Then I turned to Tim and said, “Eeks, I sure hope she doesn’t hear that!” I looked back toward the house and a sad little face was pressed against the window. I ran to the door and told her I’d look for dollars. When I couldn’t find any, I remembered the change jar! The girls didn’t have shoes on, but it was such a beautiful day we just didn’t care! I scooped up Hannah and Abby followed close behind. Then we waited. And waited. And waited some more!! It seems the other end of the neighborhood must have lots of kids! Finally we heard the music again. Abby, of course, picked out the chocolate cone! I set them free in the backyard. Shoeless and dripping with chocolate! It was a good afternoon. I came in the house to keep packing. And out of the corner of my eye I caught the most beautiful sight. Abby was sharing. I didn’t make her. I wasn’t even supervising. I’m not gonna lie – I think a tear rolled down my face. No matter what I tell you at 7pm when we’ve all had a very long day – we have two very good girls :)
