Today, Carson and I spent the morning grocery shopping and running errands followed by a long nap for the little guy. When he woke up it was really windy outside so we couldn't really go out there to play. Instead, I decided to pull out one of my favorite kids books and one that we happened to get at the Shelley Library this week:
I love this book!! I used to read it when I was little and I thought it would be fun to have a themed afternoon! First, Carson and I made chocolate chip cookies. He likes to help me pour the ingredients in and stir the flour. He also really likes watching the KitchenAid mix everything.

| I couldn't get him to smile! He was too busy mixing ingredients. |
 |
| Yes, I let him try the batter. No, I did not reuse that spatula. |
 |
| While our cookies were baking he even helped me wash dishes! Well, not really, but he played in the water. |
Once the dishes were washed and our cookies were baking, we made paper chocolate chip cookies. I cut up little black paper pieces that he glued to his cookie. I can't get over how good he is with gluing! He knows exactly what to do and is really good at it!
We finished by eating our cookies, drinking milk, and reading the book together. What a fun afternoon! Love you buddy!
