Cookies

I made Cookies for the first time today in my new kitchen. It was wonderful! When the kiddies went down for their naps I decided it had been long enough since I last made some cookies and did it. At the old hose when we were selling it i had packed away some of my baking supplies to stage the house. That was back in the middle of October. I decided to make my first batch of cookies with out the kiddies so I could get a feel of my new kitchen without finding out how to baby proof while making cookies. I loved it. My new kitchen works great, I have so much room to move around and my new oven is a dream. I had all three baking sheets of cookies in at once because it's a convection oven. I have never had one of these before so this was my first time baking with one. I never want to go back. It made the whole process so much easier, well cookies are pretty easy but to cook it all at once was the best. The next time I make anything in my kitchen I will have a little area set up so JJ can help. He just loves to help in the kitchen. I hoping he enjoys cooking because I sure don't . It would be great if one of my kids decides to become a chef they could try out new meals on the family anytime :)

This is a picture of JJ eating a cookie. I was cleaning up from making the cookies and when I turned around to see what JJ was up to this is what I saw

I think he really liked my cookies. He is so funny when he asks for a cookie he wont open his mouth. He talks normal for every other word but then keeps his mouth closed when he says cookie. I have no idea why.

Last night Sean went out for dinner with his boss and his regional manger so the kiddies and I did the evening routine alone. These are some of the pictures of JJ helping me give Katie her dinner. I can't believe how fascinated he is with Kaitlyn. He always wants to help feed her and is really trying to play with her. Today they were sitting together playing until Katie pulled JJ's hair, then the fun time was over.
Yesterday it really felt like spring so JJ and I played in the backyard while Katie took her nap. He mowed his daddy's lawn, played with his ball, went on his baby slide and played with the flowers in the front yard.

Our new main bathroom (aka kids bathroom)

I am so proud of Sean. He and my dad put this bathroom together. There was times when Sean was telling me that was it he needs to hire a plumber but he made it through and they got it done. I love it. We still need to get a little shelve thing for above the toilet and put in the baseboards but otherwise it is done. Just our bathroom left! We aren't planning on doing that one till Sean is done his April school exams.

Our Master bedroom. We still need to lay the floors and change out the broken door with the new one. The floors are the same as in the living room. I love the light we got for our bedroom it was in the clearance are of home depot. I wanted to do something that felt romantic like a Chandelier but I didn't really want a real Chandelier so I was thrilled when I saw this light.

My fireplace in my bedroom. This is my favorite thing about my bedroom.

This is the eagle that lives across the road from our house. It has a nest in the tree across the road .
