Sweet Child of Mine

4 months has become one of my absolute favorite age milestones with this chubby redhead. Clark is SO happy and so hands on. He has started grabbing everything that comes in front of his face and yanks it towards his mouth which means my chin is usually covered in spit. Sweet baby of mine has most of the Huish family, myself included, wrapped around his chubby finger. It doesn't hurt that this baby is 90% blubber-19 pounds of baby chubs for me to snuggle.

My favorite thing about this picture is Clarks death grip on my face as he reels me in.

Baking Cookies

My boys love to help me out in the kitchen. Usually I have three boys zooming around me while I cook so I put them to work stirring and gathering ingredients, but on this particular day I decided to let them get a taste of what they are always begging me to do. Our sweet neighbors dropped off a box of cookie mix over the Christmas holidays that the boys were more than excited about baking up. The boys got even MORE hyper when they realized I was letting them make it all by themselves. They pulled on their aprons washed their hands and started getting out the ingredients.
I really enjoyed watching the boys roll up the dough and then mash it onto the cookie sheet after I tried to explain the "right" way to roll out cookies.
Delicious cookie cake that the boys happily decided that they would not share with their daddy. After their daddy realized just how well they made it he was all to happy to let them eat it themselves (Lets just say that after they washed their hands the first time they proceeded to lick, pick and snack on whatever piece of dough and cookie they could get their hands on.)
Don't they look like they need to be the poster boys for cookie mix?
And it took only 3 hours for them to eat through that plate

27 years young

Turning 27 feels a lot like turning 25-which incidentally is about how old I feel.

Hyrum was adamant that I get a cake for my birthday. He started bugging his Grandma on Friday when we showed up and kept at it until I got a cake on Sunday. It looked delicious and those who ate it said it was! Even though I can't eat cake it was definitely the thought that counted. Thanks for the wonderful Birthday gift Mamaw and Hyrum!
The cake was hot from the oven so I stuck the candles into a scoop of ice-cream (Hyrum was also determined that I have candles :)
The boys loved the cake -MD was very serious about eating it.
Clark has a habit of watching others eat.

Rice Cereal-Not a Fan

This chubby red head is hilarious
He is also a little too trusting :)
But one smile from mommy convinced him that it was all alright!
Unfortunately a few minutes later we realized that the rice cereal upset his stomach. I was able to get him to smile after I put him in his sling though. He really is a sweet heart.
And this kid asked to sit on the potty twice today! Yeehaw!
He has that bored teenager look already.
