"Mom, are they done yet???"

It's no secret that Aaron has a HUGE sweet tooth. No, seriously, this child asks for candy, chocolate, and cookies ALL THE TIME. I am about to throw out the Easter candy because I am constantly saying no to having 'another' piece of candy. He has now learned that after meals he is more likely to get a 'yes' to his never ending question of whether or not he can have a piece of candy. So it was no surprise tonite after dinner when he asked if he could have a piece of chocolate. I did say no to the chocolate, but decided to make some cookies. When I say 'make,' I mean that I opened the package and put the pre-made cookies out on the cookie sheet and stuck them in the oven. Mom, if you are reading this, I realize I didn't really 'make' the cookies, but when you are 8 1/2 months pregnant with an almost 3yr old nagging you about sweets, this is the best I could do. Don't judge. Aaron thought it was awesome!! Tons of questions had to be answered...of course the "Mom, are they done yet?" question came up about 15 times. After explaining the whole process of putting them in the oven and waiting to my sweet little boy, he asked to 'see' the cookies baking. I couldn't help but take a picture or two. He was so amazed at the oven and how the cookies changed that his daddy HAD to come watch with him. Yum!!
