Has mother nature gone mad??!!!

So, it's 3 weeks into spring already and this is what we woke up to!!! (sigh) I guess that's what we get for living in Chicago :(

Cookie time!

Today we decided to make COOOOOOKIIIIIIES!!! Mama and I made them together... we made the dough, rolled it and floured... EVERYTHING (even ourselves).

I helped by flouring the cookie cutters... we had all kinds. Fish and flowers and dogs and snowmen and so many more!

Here's our first batch right out of the oven.

I got ready for the next batch of cookies...

Then, when the cookies were cooled, we started decorating with M&Ms, sprinkles and icing..

The M&Ms were my favorite (I snuck a lot into my mouth when mama wasn't looking...) I almost got away with it when she noticed I ate the M&M that was supposed to be the fishy's eye... darn.

Here's a picture of our masterpiece!

I even helped clean up afterward. Mama and papa were so proud of me!

Presents?? For 'lil 'ol meeee?? Oh you shouldn't have!

Mama and papa thought it would be fun if they bought a few gifts for me and hid them around the house for me to find! But, I'm not complaining.. no siree bob.

It was fun opening my presents, although I needed just a little help to get started.
