This evening we made Christmas cookies- or rather the first step of cookies. We made the dough, rolled it and made out holiday shapes with cookie cutters. My expectations weren't high but Grace did really well. It was fun watching her try to roll the dough and then ask for help 5 seconds later. She got her first taste of uncooked dough and then it was a struggle to keep it out of her mouth. She seemed to really enjoy the process. Even though she's a little young I want to make sure she has as many experiences as early as possible. Kids are often under estimated and I don't want to make that mistake with our children.
Tomorrow evening after dinner we will do the traditional frosting of the cookies which should be an even bigger adventure!
These are the sweetest pictures ever!
