Teaching kids... er... bad habits?

I love to bake and make stuff. These last few months since Makayla can walk she has become really interested in what happens in the kitchen. Whether we are doing the dishes, making supper or baking cookies, she wants to be in on the action. So the other day I was making a quick no bake cheesecake and she wanted to see what was going on. I made her wait until I was done and then I taught her how to lick off the spatula. I may have created a monster! She would run her finger along the spatula, put her finger in her mouth, smack her lips and say, "mmm". Too cute. So here are a few shots!

Cookin' and Cleanin'

Phil told me I had to blog about this so here we go...

Lately I have been so tired (well actually for the past three months). Almost every day I come home and take a half hour nap. Certain foods have made me feel kinda funky and I really have no ideas anymore as to what to make for dinners. So, Phil has been so kind to do a lot of the cooking and by a lot I mean pretty much almost every day! I know that I am the luckiest gal alive and totally appreciate all that he has done. In the last month I can pretty much count on my hands how many meals I have made - it hasn't been a lot. But, I am the one that does the cleaning the laundry and the dishes, so I'd say it's pretty even! So today we decided on some pasta with meat sauce. This afternoon I did three loads of laundry, ran the dishwasher (I still need to unload it and put the dirty dishes away!) and then I washed the dishes from yesterday and today and made dinner! Let it be known that today I made dinner! We may just have to keep a tally to see who makes the most meals in the next couple of months! I'm pretty sure that it will be Phil making all the meals, especially if I continue to nap all the time... boy this baby making thing is harder than it looks!
