Cookies, Cleaning, and Cute Decorating Kids....ur..something

Here's something random. I gave a cookie to McKenzie and she ate all but a bite-sized piece and informed me that she was saving the rest on the counter for later. The next couple of days I asked her if she wanted her cookie (hoping to clean off the counter). She didn't yet. On day three I asked her and she said "yes". "Oh good", I thought. She took a tiny nibble of it and again told me she was going to save the rest for later. I think she took another nibble another time as I stood there in amazement that she could get 2 nibbles out of that and still have some left. Finally after probably 5-ish days she ate it after I asked her if she wanted to eat it or if she wanted me to give it to Ethan. Wow, this girl definitely does not take after her Momma in this department! I guess she'd be more like Jason who amazes me by eating one cookie every couple of days when I make a batch! Are these people crazy? Ethan, on the other hand is my junkie buddy. At least I have someone to party with.

Another something random.......as I was walking through the house in a zombie-state after Asher didn't have the best night of sleeping, I noticed a perfect little greesy hand print on the window. In an attempt to keep myself moving and halfway alert, I grabbed the windex and a cloth and went to work. McKenzie thought it looked like fun. I got her a cloth and she enjoyed washing the windows for quite awhile - with Ethan's help after he realized what he was missing. Nice! Time to catch a few winks - or take pictures, at least.

O.k., last but not least, up by popular demand (or at least in response to one popular, yet demanding person) more pictures of Asher as to not hog him all to ourselves.

Love you, Julie! :)

Asher looks so big in the pictures with Ethan. I almost didn't want to post them as to not misrepresent his size. Then I realized it's just that Ethan is still pretty small :) The fun of having them so close in age - Love it! I'm excited for when they're about the same size and can create havoc together. On the other hand, I'd like Asher to stay tiny - smaller than he looks in this picture.

One morning McKenzie decided to "decorate" Asher. So Here's an Asher Blanket Cake with a Kenzie on top (not to mention the shirt thrown in the middle).
