Yummy!

I love to bake...especially at Christmas!! I am sure that this is because of all the time I spent in the kitchen with mom growing up. One of my favorite Christmas traditions is baking and decorating Christmas cookies. Mom had such a great collection of cookie cutters and always had fun little sprinkles and such to decorate with. Well, I've started the tradition at our house. Wilson has been sweet to join me the last few years, but this year it was fun to make cookies with Andrew, too! We took a few pictures to remember our day.

Look at him! He really seems so intent on his decorating, doesn't he?!! He loved holding the "paintbrush" (actually bought in the baking section) and moving it in the icing.

So, once he finished decorating the Christmas tree. I asked him if he'd like to decorate a star next. I placed the star on his tray while I added a little yellow food coloring to the icing and when I look back, this is what I found! No more decorating for Andrew... I think he thought that cookie was pretty good all by itself!

Yummy! A boy after his mom's own heart - a sweet lover!
