Christmas week is finally here. Considering the bombardment of holiday ads started the day after Halloween it seems we've been preparing for this week for a long time. I don't mind, though, as I love this time of year. Now that I have three little ones it's even more exciting seeing the holiday season through their eyes.
Tonight I decided to get baking, and it turned into quite the experience. After doubling a new chocolate chip recipe and discovering they weren't baking right, I remembered I forgot to double a key ingredient. Butter. I dusted off my wounds with flour (a little baking humor) and got right back to it. I made my favorite sugar cookie recipe in hopes of decorating them with big brother tomorrow.
It's easy to get swept away in the busyness of the season. I'm trying my best to slow down to enjoy these moments with the kiddos and my family.
