Happy 4th Birthday, James!: Star Wars Cookies

The days are long, but the years are short.
-Gretchen Rubin

How can the baby boy that made me a mommy be four?! Seriously, can I even call him a toddler anymore?  What is he now, a child?


While the past four years has had days that I just didn't know if I was cut out for this mom thing, there truly has been no greater joy than seeing him grow into my Star Wars-loving, non-stop question asking, endless hug giving, best big brother, sweet, happy, precocious little boy.


James is currently obsessed with Star Wars.  We are either watching Lego Star Wars, dancing to the Star Wars music, or having lightsaber fights.  Naturally, this led to a Star Wars birthday party.  I promised myself I wouldn't go overboard this time, but when James asked for Star Wars cake and cookies, I couldn't say no. (see above pictures to understand why)




And just a few other pictures from the big day...




Birthday boy got shy with everyone singing to him


My sweet James, I love you more than you will ever know, but I will spend the rest of your birthdays going over the top and spoiling you rotten to give you just an inkling of an idea of how much I do!

Happy Birthday, Josie: Princess Cookies

I cannot believe I made these cookies over a year ago! They say time flies when you're having fun, but I guess the same goes for busy moms adjusting to having two kiddos at home!

I had the pleasure of meeting Josie's mom, Heidi, when we taught Sunday school together last year.  She wanted princess cookies for Josie's big day and left the design completely up to me.  To say I had fun coming up with these and creating them is an understatement!  Now that we have a little princess of our own that has kept me away from cookies, I thought now would be the perfect time to show them to y'all.



 
Well, it took me over a year to get these posted, but I still hope you had a very special birthday, Josie!
