Here is Amelia and her snowman that daddy helped her make. What an amazing guy. Amelia chose the smile. During construction Daddy was putting the head on top and it suddenly slipped and fell onto Amelia's head and then cracked in two. Amelia said, "That really hurt", but had no tears. What a trooper.

Elves!

These great elves are for hire. They do an excellant job wrapping, cutting, taping and a special technique called wrinkle chic that would be used on all your presents. Their cost is 4 cookies per hour each. The large one takes hers with no chocolate chips. The little one needs frequent potty breaks.

Not responsible for bowel movement related accidents and tantrums.

Here's some more pics of Edie as she gets better at smiling. Also the pic of Amelia is yesterday when she said she wanted to go to school like that. What a fashion diva.

This is an addendum to the earlier bread post. To continue to show how the bread will look as it is rolled up and the height you want it to raise to. Be careful as you roll the dough up not to curl your fingers into the dough. Just roll it with the flat of your hand or with fingers straight. I've found that when you curl your fingers you inadvertently create air holes by creating indents in the dough.
