Daring Bakers
They helped cut out the dough. Can you tell?
I took a few pictures of Susannah standing by the fridge but turned around when a sonic wave of giggles nearly knocked me down. That's not a smudge on the lens; it's laugh-powder puffing out of Millie's mouth.
Here are the aforementioned pictures those giggles put a stop to...
Then, with a singleness of purpose, they frosted and decorated the cookies.

wow - i really will have to get over being a neat-freak...
I don't think i'd allow Noah to frost cookies at this point- it'd make SUCH a mess, then I turn grumpy...
I love the look of sheer concentration on Susannah's face in the last photo. :)
It has been awhile since we had any cookie frosting expeditions...and it IS the season for baking...Hmmm...;)
Liana,
This is something I sometimes struggle with, too. I try to be mindful of the fact that learning and creating are messy, and that they are WORTHY messes. The trick is training your children to tidy the eddies left from the whirl of creating.
Michelle,
Her expression is the whole reason I took the picture. Every ounce of her was concentrating!
