Preparing for Christmas

Baking xmas cookies07

We had a couple cookie baking days before Christmas. We made homemade sugar cookies and frosted them for Christmas gifts with the help of my sister Tiffany who was home for the holidays. She then took the kids out to play in the snow. After the kids warmed up we made Christmas cookie boxes with their handprints and stamps. It was very stressful with Cooper being only 2 and wanting to do everything. He was covered head to toe in flour but I didn't get a picture of that. He liked to try to cut the cookies out of the dough before it was rolled out. Then everytime he grabbed a new cookie to frost he took a bite out of it. They had fun though which made the stress of it all worth it.
