Advent Calendar: Bake cookies

I was so excited for you to open this box. I saw a commercial back in November of Pillsbury Christmas cookies that had different Christmas pictures on it. When I went grocery shopping a few weeks ago I made sure to pick these up. I grew up with a mother that shooed us away from the kitchen when we were growing up so I never had any memories of baking/cooking with my mom. Don't get me wrong, I have fond memories of enjoying my mom's delicious foods, but I decided that I want to involve you more in the kitchen at an early age. When daddy and I watch the Food Network (we are obsessed!) and I hear chefs talking about how their passion of cooking was ingnited by spending time in the kitchen with their grandma/mom I am inspired. I also want your future wife to be impressed by your cooking skills. Not that today involved you cracking eggs or any actual baking for that matter, but it's a stepping stone, right?

So beautiful you are :-)

Always wanting to do the cute pose.

Lashes to die for!

So so excited.

Another funny face.

Haha, the fake smile again.

I chose the snowman picture cookies. They also had a Christmas tree and something else…
I forgot!

You pulled up the stool so that you could help me.

Putting all the cookie dough on the baking sheet.

It was a VERY important job.

Cookie batch ready to go in the oven!

While we were waiting for the cookies to bake in the oven I took a video of you. I told you the oven was hot and to not go near it and you mentioned that last time you hurt your hand on it. I didn't know what you were talking about, but then I remembered that there was an incident a few weeks ago where you stuck your hand in the gap of the door oven when it was still hot and you cried in pain. I had to rinse your finger in cold water for a few minutes to numb the pain. I can't believe how you remember these things!

Look how they puffed up after they were finished.

You actually ate 5 cookies after they were baked. I think you ate them because you helped me
bake them!
