One of my biggest struggles as a new mom of two is being able to balance my time with both my kids. I find that Liam usually gets the short end of the stick because Noah wants to be held constantly. It's even worse when the weather isn't the nicest because I can't take them out for walks and to the park. So I decided the other day that Liam and I would make cookies together!
Noah was great... he slept in his bouncy chair the entire time. I let Liam sit on our island and he got to dump the ingredients in the bowl and help me sample the batter (that's the grown- up way of saying that we licked the beaters!!).
By the way, it is a sheer coincidence that he is wearing his Cookie Monster shirt! I also think that Liam's favorite part of making the cookies was pigging out on the chocolate chips!
Cookie dough... YUMMY!! |
Time to clean up! |

However, when the cookies were done I realized that I had pulled a pretty bonehead move- I forgot to grease the sheet!! But in the end, the cookies were deeeeelicious!! It was a great way to spend some quality time with my sweet little boy!
