Frostin' cookies

A Frosted Cookie Experience - Berge style

Mix 1 clean floor together with 4 children frosting/eating cookies to yield 1 sprinkled, frosted, sticky floor, 15 heavily frosted, sprinkled and sticky cookies and 4 happy, messy children.




Hannah didn't do too much frosting...or sprinkling. She just licked up the sugary sweetness. If you look closely you'll notice that the bowl has a decent sized chip missing. Oh yes, that entire bowl went sailing onto the floor shortly after we began this torturesome blessed Christmas tradition. Thankfully it landed right side up.



Luke's specialty was definitely the sprinkles. Very heavy on the sprinkles. Can you tell what shape he frosted??




Can I just tell you how thankful I am for Timothy?? One child who is capable of frosting and sprinkling while keeping his area relatively clean! Yes! It is good to have a 5 year old. You rock, buddy!


Mr Wiggles or El Destructo as we fondly call Josiah was somewhat confined to the high chair for the frosting fiesta. He munched away while being entertained watching Mommy running from kid to kid trying to contain the mess to just the table and floor.



Ahhhh, no more frosting till Valentine's Day...

Yummy mess! Better than cleaning poo off the bottom tray of an exersaucer which has been stomped in over and over by little socked feet. Not that I'd know. Is this an inappropriate comment on a food post? Opps :)
