Last week my little one learned a phrase that made me a little sad… I was carrying Dylan as we were waiting for Thade to get out of school, and that is when Dylan said “no mom, want down, want to walk”. My little one is growing up fast and becoming more and more independent every day.
He can now brush his own teeth, helps pick up his toys, and he mimics anything that his big brother can do. It is cool to see my little one becoming a toddler, but it is tough on this Mommy too.
Thursday we had two super-cool visitors, and one sweet treat too. When we got home from our run to the grocery store, there was a knock on the door, and a yummy plate of cupcakes too.
My sweet friend Stacey and her adorable Daughter brought us over a plate full of Baby Cakes, and they were so tasty. We really appreciated the get well treat, and I’ve got to get the recipe from her too. These little cakes were so good. Thanks again!
Happy Valentine’s Day!!!!
This has been a really fun Valentine’s Day! My boys went all out this year. I was surprised with Chocolates, sweet cards, and way too many gifts. I really appreciate them though, my boys are the best!
James even got my favorite Valentine’s Cookies too. Thade had a lot of fun at his Valentine’s Day party at school yesterday, and he came home with a ton of Valentine’s goodies.
I hope that everyone has a wonderful Valentine’s Day, and a great weekend too!
Whew! Today has flown by. I did pass my renewal this afternoon, and thank goodness. I was super worried though, it has been several years since I’ve taken a test of any kind. Anyway back on point, today I started baking for the Valentine’s Dinner for tomorrow night. I’m in charge of the desserts and dinner rolls too. I was very happy to spend the afternoon, busy in the kitchen!
I made up a double batch of Dinner Rolls.
After the dinner rolls were out of the oven, and we were all finished with dinner, I started rolling out and baking the Sweetheart Sugar Cookies.
These sweeties will get iced and decorated tomorrow, along with the Mini Chocolate Bundt Cakes. I got them baked today too, but somehow I forgot to get a picture…
Tomorrow I’ll be Ganache dipping a whole lot of Strawberries, and maybe making a few Truffles too. I can’t wait to get back in the kitchen tomorrow.
Happy Friday the 13th! Well today I woke up with a giant migraine, and then I remembered that I’ve got to get my driver’s license renewed today. That is when my hubby told me about the written test that you have to take for renewals. Great, one more thing for me to be stressed about today. I tried a practice test online, and I didn’t do so hot, I’m going to say that it was because I was holding a screaming snotty Dylan, and Thade was asking me 8 billion questions, so needless to say the kiddos are staying home with Daddy while I take this test. Wish me well, I hope I won’t be walking home this afternoon.
