Parenting after 35

I've created a monster...

I made sugar cookies today and gave M a bite of one while I frosted them. He loved it and started whining for more, so I told him I'd give him some more when I was done.

I gave him about a third of an unfrosted cookie when I was done and he gobbled it up in a nanosecond. 

Think my little non-sugar loving, didn't even like his birthday cake baby may have developed a sweet tooth.

  • Cookies are different!

    Margaux noms down unattended cookies like they're mum-mums.  We have to really watch her.

  • See, I would have thought sweet was sweet. Oh well. Now I know.
  • I think their taste buds for sweets develop later. At least F's did. He had no interest in his first bday cake or any chocolate either. We were so happy thinking he wasn't into chocolate. Well now its a whole other story. He is obsessed with cookies. He now knows that they give free cookies at target to kids. He starts saying "cookie, cookie" in the target parking lot!
  • And what a great sweet to start with - homemade sugar cookies are the best!
  • While Aaron will eat mashed potatoes with his hands, he still won't touch icing.  But he'll eat the hell out of an Oreo cookie or the little Earth's Best Letter of the Day cookies.

  • Cookies ARE different, although Keira DID eat a cupcake at her 2nd birthday and started asking for more (no interest in her smash cake at her 1st birthday).

    It actually scares me a little how frantically she signs for more when she gets a piece of a cookie.

    This might be the best quote of the day!!!! LOL
