Madeline has a lot to learn in the kitchen!

A few weeks ago we went to Kleinpeter Photography to take pictures.  Mrs. Lindsey, Izzy's and Sophie's mom, took them.  She's so silly!  Our primary goal was Madeline's one-year pictures, but we took a lot of us together, too!  (If you want to see them, click here, click "view events" at the bottom, then "portraits."  Find Mommy's name and click on it, then enter Mommy's email address, and you can view them!)

In preparation for the pictures, Mommy made Madeline a cake to smash at the end of pictures.  She let Madeline help her (I was busy outside working with Daddy on our new deck, so she had to settle for Madeline's help.)  Madeline did okay, but she has a lot to learn in the kitchen!


But I will admit... She looks pretty cute by the mixer!


Lesson #1:
Madeline, it's really best if you let the mixer STOP spinning 
before you put your hand in there!



Lesson #2:
Sprinkles taste better than the plastic container they come in.  If you ask Mommy nicely, she'll put some sprinkles in a bowl for you and you won't have to break your only front teeth trying to bite the container open.  


Lesson #3:
Licking the spatula and beaters is the best part.  And it's my job!
So if you're going to do it, you need to look a lot happier!


Lesson #4:
See Lesson #1 about letting the mixer STOP.  Really.  It's important.

She's off to a good start, and I'll teach her the best ways to do it!
