Fridays are usually a fun day for Natalie and I. We go to storytime at the library then do another activity together. We love Fridays because we are done with all the housework for the week and get to spend time together doing whatever we want. Today we made chocolate swirl cookies. They are delicious as you can tell by Natalie's face. Once she tasted the batter, she kept nodding her head, saying yum and couldn't keep the beaters out of her mouth.

Cookies are the only food Mason eats. Does that mean I should make more or less. I'm worried about less because I'm afraid he'll starve. What a cute picture too!
A new cute picture to grace my screen. I love waking up to Natalie!
