Cookie Messes and Being Crafty

Recently, we have had some Oreo cookies in our house (which is something that never happens) because I made a homemade cheesecake with an Oreo crust (it turned out delicious! I even made homemade raspberry puree and put a few fresh raspberries on each piece. I was very proud. It was my first time doing this). Well, there were and still are some cookies left over, so Reed has had a few and loved them! He mostly enjoys the cream center, but eventually gets around to the cookie part as well. Well, here is what happens when he does.....


I thought his face wuld be much dirtier, but apparently, he just transferred it all to his hands :) (Doesn't he look so grown up?!)


Yes, both of his hands were equally as chocolatey.....he sure had fun!

A couple of Saturdays ago, we had a Relief Society craft day. I had signed up for 3 crafts (yes, very daring for me) even though I am not the craftiest person in the world. I ended up making a baby tutu, an eye spy bag, and a glass Christmas block. It was a ton of fun and my crafts ended up being pretty awesome (by my standards, that it is)!

The baby-sized tutu that I actually made! It is so sparkly and fun! I may have to make one in my size :)

I loved these "eye spy" bags at the school I used to work at and now I officially made one! I felt very accomplished after this craft.

I actually put the Christmas lights inside this glass, square box. I think it turned out pretty cool. I also want to do one with white lights in it. I just think white lights are gorgeous!
