Making Cookies for Daddy

Last weekend Jen and I decided that it was about time Marion received a care package, and what better way to do that than to send him homemade cookies made by none other than Mr. Michael himself.

First have Mommy and Auntie collect all the ingredients...


You always have to make sure you wash your hands before playing in cookie dough


Start with a little bit of butter


Wait! Don't eat the butter!


Next comes the sugar.


Mix it all together. Even if you aren't so sure about this whole food processor thing.


Then you have to roll out the dough and cut out the cookies


Once Mommy and Auntie have taken care of the baking part, it's time to decorate!


And last but not least, you always have to try your handi-work to make sure it's good enough for Daddy!

Ear Infections ≠ Smiles....

but we got what we could! Poor little guy... he was fighting an ear infection this past weekend, which made for lots of cuddle time and a cranky boy. However, every once in a while the Tylenol would kick in just long enough for us to play around with him.

Counting down the days 'til Christmas!


This kid seriously makes some of the goofiest faces


And then he turns around and gets all cute again




One thing is for sure, when he's not feeling good, he likes to read lots of books. Lots. Right now.




So mischievious looking...


Michael woke up from his Sunday nap to find himself with a new toy! Now we just have to teach him how to not hit things with it.


One thing's for certain, Michael wants to wish everyone a Happy Holiday!

Oh Marion!

Michael would like you to know that he's sending you something in the mail! He made it just for you!
