More fun than…. [Sacramento Baby Photographer]

Will has been home sick all week.  I think that he has the flu.  Now they all have it.  Anyway, he seems to be better now.  Before Ava got it, she had her first day of art class.  The boys and I dropped her off and as we were walking around, killing time, will told me the sweetest thing….

“Mom, you are way more fun than Kindergarten.”

I was truly flattered.

Snickerdoodles [Sacramento Photographer]

Will was not feeling well today so he stayed home with us.  Wes just got back from a trip so he had the day off too.  It was a treat to have a family day in the middle of the week.  Wes took Ava and Clay to the gym and Will and I decided to make our favorite cookie ever, the Snickerdoodle.  Will had been asking me for awhile to make them with him so this was the perfect opportunity to do so.  I am trying to make a binder with my favorite recipes to pass on to my children someday.  My mom is an AMAZING cook and so many of my childhood memories (and adult ones) are of her in the kitchen making something delicious.  The problem is that I would like to recreate these things that I love so much but she never writes the recipes down or measures.  So, someday I will get her to nail down some of my favorites, but in the meantime, I am making some recipes books for my kids when they grow up.

This recipe was given to me by my friend Carrie.  When we had Clay, we were so incredibly lucky to be showered with meals from our friends at Tiny Tots.  Carrie brought these over not knowing that the Snickerdoodle is my favorite cookie .  I immediately had to have the recipe.  This Snickerdoodle is light and delicate.  It had a good crunch on the outside yet is soft and airy on the inside. I hope that she doesn’t mind me sharing…

Four [Sacramento Child and Family Photographer]

Ava turned 4 this week.  It was amazing to see her go from baby to now.  It happened in a blink of an eye.  She went from playing with baby dolls to bopping around the house listening to Miley on her “ipod” (which really is a Disney Mix Stick).
