My baking helper

This week I have been in a huge baking mood! Not sure if I have been baking so much because I'm pregnant, getting ready for Christmas and/or simply keeping my mind busy. 

"You have to swirl them!"

Oh dear, going to the bathroom while Harrison is surrounded by baking ingredients = quite a mess!

Yummy banana muffins!

My all time favorite! Grandma Julie's sugar cookie recipe!


I love baking and giving 80-90% away to friends! 

Apartment playground really isn't too bad

After school on Tuesday, Harrison asked to go to the playground. We have been to our playground several times before but I have always found it to be really old with lots of rust and we have found a few unsafe objects (wire, sewing needles/pins, and glass).  Most kids come outside at 5:30pm, which adds to the craziness. I took a deep breathe and said okay lets go! Harrison had a BLAST! The sand was clean and I realized just how okay the playground is for him. A very happy boy! 

Hey Uncle Jaben, Harrison is ready to go hunting with you! Bought with his own money! He's super proud!

Happy New Year!

I can't think of a better way to bring in the 2015 then with these two wonderful guys. Harrison loved going on a boat ride with just Daddy! "We held hands, talked and looked at each other."
