Baking for the Party

My mom came to stay with us for a few days before O's party to help us get ready. Thanks, Guh-guh! My mom and O are baking peanut butter cookies to use for the ice-cream sandwiches
Mixing up Cheerio treats with sprinkles
Making #2 sugar cookies
O was very proud of these cookies, and she definitely know the number 2 now! She kept asking for "more number 2 cookie, please."
Decorating the cookies.

    I stumbled across your blog a few weeks ago and I love reading about O's adventures! Where did you get the adorable baker's hat?

    we did this too... our daughters birthdays are so similar - we must have gleaned the same ideas of the net... but my cookie cutter number 2 is very small, so I made number 2s and the letters of her name sugar cookies and we all ate them for breakfast ( a new tradition) I think the older my older girls liked it too (the birthday girl just licked the icing)

    we also made a pinata but only cause the older two said we have to (I said it is a 2 year old party) but they didnt care as we often make pinatas for easter and birthdays... it is so much fun.

    you are such a good mom... pat on the back for all your hard work.

    It is BabyEbi's birthday next week and we are going camping with friends at the weekend so we made a pinata football, I am just hoping it will work and the kids don't break their toes LOL.
    Love O's hat, I have been trying to figure out how to make one for babyEbi.

    Thanks for the comments!
    Erika- The baker's hat came in a set with O's apron from Target.
    Jo- We used the pattern from The Creative Family by Amanda Soule to make O's crown. You could probably draw your own pretty easily :) I can't wait to see what you come up with, and I hope you'll post pics of BabiEbi's pinata football!
