Cookie Monster

When I was younger, baking cookies with my grandmother was one of my favorite memories, so I have been eager to bake with Braden. Christmastime seemed like an ideal opportunity to make sugar cut-out cookies with him.

The baking experience didn't go quite as planned. Every baking tool and product looked like a toy to Braden!
Banging these metal measuring cups really hard on these metal mixing bowls was louder than any drum we could ever buy for Braden. I had to get out the cookie sprinkles to distract him from this activity!
Braden sampled the cookie toppings and approved of the candies and sprinkles. He quickly discovered this was a fun project!
Apparently not all bottles of sprinkles come with child-proof caps! One little star cookie was topped with the whole container! Braden was so proud of his creation.
The masterpiece cookies were finally baked and decorated. When I offered Braden one, he opted to play with tools instead. His daddy would be so proud!
Braden didn't care to even have one of his cookies, but he did a great job making and decorating them!

Ya, i don't use Cody's help yet while cooking :) I let him frost some, but he is crazy! I need you address again. Can Matt text it to Brian?
