Random


One of those weeks where there's just nothing work talking about.

Earlier in the week, the younger two and I made cookies for a friend of theirs who was in the hospital. They were so easy, the kids actually did most of the work themselves. If you're a baking purist this won't appeal to you, but I found this recipe for cake box cookies (86 the nuts) to be very easy and yummy (yes, we kept half for our own enjoyment)


this was after he was sent to the bathroom to wash his face


Maddie's favorite thing to do that drives us crazy
This was pretty impressive... She held this pose long enough for me to run back to the office and grab the camera. There's no way I could do this for even a second.

Last, but not least, a big thanks to my friend Megan who made these personalized baby gifts for me. Love the coordinating gift bag made from matching fabric! She can make pretty much anything, so give her shout if you want her to make something unique for you.

Had to chuckle at Maddie's new skill...that was a favorite of mine growing up too! We had the perfect hallway for wall scaling & my brother and I regularly left lovely footprints on it. Ah, the memories! :)

I don't recall you ever trying to scale the hallway, but you were pretty impressive on the monkey bars.

I think all four of us chitlins did that in the hallway of mom's old house. I think it used to drive her crazy too!
Cookies look yummy!
