Baking Cookies

We've taken quite a few photos already on our trip home, so I'm going to have to put them on the blog in batches. (The internet speed here isn't exactly blisteringly fast.) Speaking of batches, Finley got to help his grandmommy make his first batch of sugar cookies. Here he is in his cute dinosaur pj's, getting ready to bake!

Finley enjoyed getting dough and flour all over his hands...

...and his face!

He tried to grab entire handfulls of sprinkles...

...so Grandmommy had to help finish that part.

Then Finley got to give Maddie a treat. Finley loves Maddie and wants to play with her all the time. He calls her "Mannie."
And no, Finley didn't actually eat any of the sugar cookies he helped make. We're still trying to give him as little refined sugar as possible. We're not terribly mean parents, though; we did offer him a tiny piece of cookie, but he didn't even want it. Guess that means a healthier Finley and more yummy cookies for me!
