Baking Queen

I took the plunge and had my little shadow help me with some baking. Up until now, most of my baking has been done during times when I don't have little hands making messes, but I figured she is old enough now to actually enjoy it.

Getting ready. Once she helped me measure and mix the ingredients, can you guess what her favorite part of baking is?

She is thinking about it. She wasn't sure at first that all of the ingredients we mixed would be something yummy.

"Ok. Maybe I will try it."

Here she goes.

I think it's safe to say she likes it.

Right after I took this picture she very sincerely said, "Thank you!" It melted my heart to know she was truly enjoying herself.

There's no going back now. She knows it's good and therefore wants to eat it all.

You can never have too many tastes.

So then I just decided to give her the beaters.

I think it was a success. I am sure there will be more baking in the future for this little baking queen.
