Baking and Gates!

So yesterday I had a day off from work and of course like most other days (well ALL other days) that I have off I spent it at home with the kids. We are trying to clean out our pool so we had to come up with other creative stuff to do. So we decided to BAKE! Well kinda. We had bought some frozen cookies from Carina's school so we heated up the oven and let Neya and Rian "man the cookies". They were so cute...Neya laid them all out and Rian moved them all around the pan while she kept yelling at him...Haha.

Carina on the other hand didn't want to just throw frozen cookies on a pan so we decided the next best thing (and easiest thing) was to make Rice Krispie Treats. SO we made two batches. One regular plain 'ol Rice Krispies and one with M&M's. YUMMY!!!

Here are some pics from the baking adventure.





The other thing that went on yesterday was that we FINALLY decided to get a gate for the house that we could NOT live without. The girls were ALWAYS so easy. We never put kid locks, plug covers, cabinet latch things, gates..NOTHING. Rian is a totally different story. If it can be opened, climbed, slammed shut or have his fingers fit in it, then he will do whatever he can to disobey that little command "no". The funnier part is that when you tell him no, he smiles at you and turns back to whatever it was he SHOULDN'T be doing in the first place. That kid. At this rate the girls truly are angels compared to his sneaky butt!

So in true mommy fashion I took a pic of the one thing he hates the most in our house. Our new gate.

Note: Check out his face. He is NOT HAPPY!


Have a good one everyone!
