Mmmm. . . Muffins

This morning we made muffins for breakfast. Johnny helped. He loves to help in the kitchen and surprisingly usually does a great job without too much of a mess. Once the muffins were done, I gave each of the kids one, and put the muffin tin on the counter as far back as I could. Silly me, thinking that would stop Johnny. Unbeknownst to me, he'd gotten a chair and helped himself to the rest of the muffins, randomly placing them all over the house.

Once I realized this, I started looking for the muffins and putting them up high away from Johnny's reach. That is why Sister was crying in the picture, she was afraid I was going to take away the muffin Johnny had stolen for her. I let them keep their contraband (he'd taken an extra for himself too) and they were very happy.


In other exciting news, Bela is going to be 1 in less than two weeks. She enjoys playing with blocks, peek-a-boo, reading books, and going for walks. I can't believe how this last year has gone by slow and fast all at the same time. Johnny currently loves chocolate milk, Toy Story, the color orange, and triangles. I really wish they weren't growing up so fast, but I love being able to play with them all day long.
