Painting Ornaments and Making Muffins

   Connor had a fun weekend of trying new things, and I loved watching him have so much fun. On Saturday morning, we went to a friends house for an ornament painting party. Connor had never painted before {mostly because I don't want to deal with the mess}, and he loved it just like I expected! It took him a little while to figure out that the ornaments were not cookies and the red paint was not ketchup, but after repeatedly telling him it wasn't food and pulling it away from his mouth, he got the point.
 They really do look like cookies and ketchup...

 He was really careful at first, but by the end he had paint all over his hands.
 Having a blast!
He had a lot of fun getting dirty! We ended up bringing home three painted ornaments {plus 1 to paint here} and one hand print ornament. Since he had so much fun, I think I might let him do it again in a couple weeks. Hand painted ornaments make great gifts for loved ones :)
    Fast forward to this morning, I felt like making blueberry muffins for breakfast. Of course my little shadow wanted to help, so I put him he climbed onto the chair and helped me like a great little chef.
 Putting the muffin liners in the pan and scooping out the mix.
Very carefully scooping it into the liner.
 Perfection!
 Enjoying the muffin he helped make.
 Kylie was waiting nearby for crumbs to fall onto the floor.
 Happy boy!
 Signing {and saying} "more" and eating his yummy food.
 "This is so good mom!"
Everyone was happy after breakfast!
