I've pictures for this one, but they are at home...

Hudson and I made christmas cookies last night! I was feeling very "motherly" (this is the only way I can think of discribe it, as I have been working alot and been very busy and have felt really sad and guilty about all the time away from my little guy, so it was nice to feel motherly, like those stay at home moms that I envy so much.... but I digress...) and I Hudson helped me put all the cookies on the cookie sheet. The OCD kicked in again (I think it's an age thing) and he had me rearrange the cookies like a million times so they were evenly spaced...

I imagined us a few years from now when I offer to help him on an art project for school or something and he gives me an appologetic look, "um, no thanks mom..." because I'm not meticulous enough and he'd end up redoing it anyway...

But it was alot of fun. He didn't wait for me to frost the first one before showering it generously with red and green sprinkles... I turned off that voice in my head that says don't let him spill, and he had a great time... "See mommy, I'm creative!" he said, wildly shaking the sprinkles, "I used two colors, I'm creative!!"

The end results were kinda pretty, and he had a really good time.

Later I had trouble getting him to bed, but finally closed the door and let him whine himself to sleep, but when it finally got quiet, I went to go check on him and opened the door right on his head because he was laying on the floor by the door. Poor little guy! :( So I tucked him in and he was fine the rest of the night... *sigh* That's all for now, I'll post cookie pictures when I get home!
