Gingerbread House 2007

I am still alive and kicking, I promise. I really thought I had blogged since Wednesday. I was shocked to see I had not. I have been so busy with the girls and Christmas stuff and having fun doing Christmas stuff with the girls that I guess it slipped my mind. I am sorry, Blogland.

Friday afternoon Jenna and I made a gingerbread house. This is a tradition Jenna and I started last year. We made a
tree last year. This house came already assembled and all I did was add some icing. Jenna did the rest and was so proud.

She was so serious!
Look at the sparkle in her eyes!Ashley was in the kitchen helping too!Um, yeah...Eating the icing!
Ah, straight sugar!Almost finished...
It's hard work!Eating the icing right out of the packet! Right before I took this picture she said, "I eat eat all gone." We are not sure why, but she can never say just eat - she has to say eat eat.
So proud of her gingerbread house!
Um, Baby Ashley is trying to either take credit for the making of the gingerbread house or eat it...
And Molly too...Also, the other day while we were out shopping Jenna wanted to wash her hands BEFORE she used the potty. I said, "No, we do that afterwards." Then she said this," "We don't want my hands to be dirty, do we now, Mom?!" So, we washed before and after the potty...

I'm so jealous - Faith wanted to bake a gingerbread house so bad.. but we don't have any baking stuff here since we couldn't pack our kitchen. I felt terrible!! Yours looks so cute - and it looks like you all had a blast!!
