Christmas festivities

Baking is one of my favorite things of the Christmas season. I have fond memories of making all kinds of cookies with my mom and sister, and now I hope Abigail and I can create our own *sweet* memories. For Abigail's first Christmas tree ornament, I opted to not go with the standard "Baby's First Christmas" one. Instead, Hallmark has a new series of cookie cutter ornaments that I couldn't resist. I've decided that making sugar cookies should be one of our family holiday traditions. Maybe we can also buy a new cookie cutter shape each year?

We went to a cookie exchange party today and I made one of my mom's Christmas cookie standards: chocolate Andes mint cookies. Yum.


Robert says I went a little overboard with Abigail's outfit for the day but I disagree. I love the ruffly pants and festive socks!




Aww...kisses from daddy.
