Gingerbread mania!

Caroline came over and we made gingerbread people today. Now, I call them gingerbread people because I put dresses on some so they aren't all men, not because I'm trying to be politically correct. Anyway, it was fun and messy and sugary. Now that I think about it, those three adjectives usually describe what we do when Caroline comes over. I'm about to make some sugar cookie dough to freeze for the next time she's here. So here are some pics of the day.
Here is Caroline working hard on decorating her last cookie. She worked so hard and then she ate it! I tried to convince her to bring it home but she wanted to eat it.

This one is Owen eating his last cookie. Can you believe they both lost interest after decorating only three cookies each!

Here's some of the final product. I obviously enjoyed decorating the 14 cookies they didn't want to do.

This is the two of them watching The Jungle Book afterwards. My way of trying to keep them calm while the sugar works its way out of their systems. Yes, those are Caroline's socks next to her on the couch. She never wears socks!

Well, I hear Katie crying. She's still sick so I can't really let her cry too long these days, makes me feel too guilty. Until next time!
