Sugarloaf Sweets

even if they look a wee bit Amish…

One of Jake’s biggest obsessions in life is building. He can never have enough tools. Whenever something accidentally breaks in our house, Jake is the first on scene to fix it with his assortment of hammers, wrenches, and screwdrivers.  It breaks my heart to tell him some things just can’t be fixed. (Can we fix it? NO we can’t just doesn’t fly with this guy). Luckily Jake is really eco-friendly you can hear him chanting…Reuse, Renew, Recycle…

He also believes that we can sell all the broken things in a garage sale.  It’s hard to be angry at a three year old who is just out to help his family make a profit. Especially in these economic times.

If you have a problem, If no one else can help, and if you can find him, maybe you can hire, Jake. (For the sound effects alone)

Pop really loves his grandbabies!

Jonas is 4 months old now and is starting cereal! The rice cereal is so “liquidy”  that it’s like feeding a baby soup for the first time. I think he almost enjoyed it as much as his daddy did.

Jacob truly loves his baby

Jonas loves this.

We made blondies last night as an after dinner treat. This was probably the easiest baked good to make. I followed the directions at Simply Recipes.  I used chocolate chips (because that is all we had on hand). Next time I will try peanut-butter chips instead for Vin..and try cutting down on the sugar(as it was really sweet).   I recommend trying this one.
