Cookies

On Saturday, Noah pulled out a bag of cookie mix that we got for Christmas and was begging that we make them. We had nothing else to do, so why not? Noah was so great to help me mix all of the ingredients, roll out the dough, and cut out the cookies. He LOVES to help me in the kitchen and this was the perfect thing to make because he could help from start to finish. He usually gets a little sad when I have to put something on the stove and he can't help. While the cookies were baking, we made frosting, and I went way overboard by making three different flavors, but Noah insisted that we have red, green, and yellow...so I couldn't resist. Noah had a blast frosting the cookies and he was so good to make sure that each and every cookie got a ton of frosting. Oh, and Leah was beyond happy when Noah gave her a cookie to eat...and of course she just licked all of the frosting right off of it instead of actually eat the cookie. It was pretty funny to watch, especially when she started to sneak cookies from the tray just so that she could lick the frosting. Too funny. Needless to say, we had a great time putting the children to bed that night due to their sugar rush. But it was all worth it! Really, it was :).
