When Piper Helps Make Cookies...

It's always way more work than I want!
But as my mother always says "We made memories!!"
And those memories were worth it.  I love you little flour!

Oh My!! She really gets into her work doesnt she. These pictures are awesome! I actually had to chuckle to myself at work as I looked through them. Yes- the cleanup probably not so good but the memories- priceless!!

That is so sweet...you really captured the memories so beautifully! I love the play on the word flour, especially since she has that pretty flower on her shirt. She is so pretty!

ALWAYS more work! We don't even make sugar cookies around here. I just can't handle it. I need to learn to chill out. Look at that baby girl though...I would give her ANYTHING she wanted!

Piper is a complete doll! Man, she seems really into the process huh?? I should let Quinn get messy more often. You have inspired me!

I really see you in Piper. Man that girl is cute. You are good about letting them make a mess. A LOT better than me. But it makes for some great pictures and awesome memories.

I think by number four you start relaxing a bit huh? I'm a lot different than when you first met me and I just had Grace! I remember Emily Wright asking me what I did with all of my time! Of course, she had like three kids and one on the way at the time! Funny I felt busy!!! :) Of course, I still sometimes would rather just make dinner by myself but I almost always have Gabe by my side. I know that is how they learn though!

Piper is oh so cute!

Good point, the memories are worth it!--I often fret too much about the mess. Thanks for sharing the adorable pictures.

How cute little Piper is and she really was consentrating and working hard. And yes Brittney you were and did make memories and they are the BEST! I like how she is enjoying the fruits of her labor. ( : Miss you all so much. Mom/Mamaw

Kudos to you for braving the sugar-cookie-making mess! I don't do it very often! Quentin is the one who always wants to be involved when I am cooking, and it really does make it more challenging to have those little "helping" hands around! But I'm sure someday I will miss it, and as you say, will be glad for the memories.
