I thought an afternoon of baking cookies would be a fun change of pace. We mixed up a batch of cookie dough from scratch and waited a few hours so it could harden up in the fridge.
After "rest time," we got on our aprons and got to work! Emma enjoyed rolling out the dough.
Sara liked pushing the cookie cutters into the rolled dough.
It was a tough to decide which letters to use.
I got a kick out of watching the girls decorate their cookies. Sara pretty much focused on just one of her cookies and smushed it to bits! Emma liked sampling the butterscotch chips that were supposed to go on the cookies!
The girls sat on the kitchen floor and turned themselves around while waiting for the cookies to bake. It made me dizzy watching them.
It did not take long for the girls to get tired of waiting so they decided to change into their princess dresses.
Yea! The cookies are finally ready to eat!
Emma loved eating the cookies that she made.
Sara was more excited about drinking her milk out of her big girl cup.
After their cookies and milk, my helpers ran off into princess land again. So I was left on my own and made these little gems! They are supposed to be Mickey Mouse but they look a little more like Snoopy. Oh well!
