The Princess

The princess and I made cookies today with the stuff Nan-naw gave her for Christmas.  Nan-naw and Paw-paw gave her 2 bags of sugar cookie mix, lots of cookie cutters, an apron, a spatula, her very own cookie sheet and a recipe box.  The little princess is always starving for attention.  Since her brother had company over and he was playing with him, I decided to have some much needed mother daughter time.  Though she can be trying at times, we had fun making lots of yummy valentine shaped cookies.  She even let Owen help decorate some of them (even though he ate more than he decorated).  We didn't start off to well though.  We had a little miss understanding at the beginning.  I told Aly to open the cookie mix and dump it in, (meaning the mixer bowl).  She thought she was supposed to dump it on the table, like you do the flour when your rolling the cookies out.  Chris and I found it quite funny, she however did not.  When I said something to her about it she thought I was yelling at her.  But despite a few messes and lots of spilled sprinkles, we managed to get all of the cookies decorated.  We made 52 small heart shaped cookies and 12 big heart shaped cookies.  They are very yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!
