baking with robbie

i'm blessed to have such a domestic husband. the man is a neat freak, he loves animals and kids, he likes cooking, his drawers & book bag are immaculate inside. 
so when i suggested we bake after a week of being stuck in bed, he was pretty down with the idea.
cookie3
cookie1
cookie2
things started out normal enough. we pulled out the bowls & measuring cups & spoons & started mixing things.
cookie9
cookie7
and bernie & archibald offered to help too.
cookie4
and while we waited for the oven to heat, he studied & i did some light reading.
cookie5
cookie6
and then all of a sudden, i looked up & things started to get weird.
cookie10
really, really weird.
cookie11
cookie12
but i guess that's what i get for baking with husband. and if i'm being honest, it was probably the best time i ever had baking.
cookie13
and they were yummy too.

Look at all the cute cooking stuff you have!! You guys are adorable! I like his cookie monster...I think the last time I got the hubs to cook with me was when we were dating. I hid behind the counter while he took a bathroom break and scared the pee out of him when he came back. Maybe that is why I have had a hard time getting him in the kitchen with me! ha!

Our family grew up with that exact "you are special today" plate. My parents would pull it out for birthdays. Then a few years ago for Christmas our parents surprised us all with our own{for our own families}.
