Making Cookies

Homemade cookies sound good to me today. Well okay homemade, but not from scratch (the main ingredients come from a bag - that I spent 35 cents for after using coupons). I love oatmeal cookies, but my kids aren't a real big fan of them. We decided to make oatmeal, peanut butter, and chocolate chip w/walnuts. I know - crazy huh?

So I get started. I pull the baking sheets out (which Emmett was so excited about). As I get the bowl out to mix up the cookies, Paige comes running into the kitchen wanting to help. Wow! I must be feeling good today or something. Cause I decided to let everyone help, yes, even Emmett! I know what a crazy person I am today. I am figuring that it will be easier to manage Emmett if I have him on a chair next to Paige and I while we mix the cookies and put them on the baking sheets. HERE WE GO!!!!!

Everything actually went smooth. I was able to capture some adorable pictures of Paige and Emmett. I guess be glad that we aren't sharing these cookies with friends, cause we put our fingers in the dough and in our mouths and then in the dough and back into our mouths. FUN TIMES!!!!


















Paige mixing up the cookie dough. Emmett contemplating what he should do to help out with the cookie making process.

















Oh yea, Emmett could help by put his mark in each cookie as it is placed on the baking sheet.

















Oh but the even better thing to do would be to taste the cookie dough. Um Um Good!!














Here is the final product. A lot of Oatmeal, some Peanut Butter, and a little Chocolate Chip w/Walnuts. Great job Paige and Emmett!!!!
