It was really a 4-day process for the dream team of a pregnant mom and a 2-yr-old! We do what we can :)!! One day to "mees mees" aka mix the batter. One day to cut the shapes out. One day to bake and cool. One day to decorate. Whew ... I'm tired again just thinking of it :)
E did great with each step, especially since he was probably a little too young for it all.
The best was decorating which we tackled one night while daddy was off working. He worked really hard and did really well concentrating and being patient with each step of icing then decorating each one.
He insistently chose blue icing for almost all of them, and I let him decorate with some of his favorite treats. It was so fun!
The finished product:
Obviously I knew he would end up eating way too much sugar and candy during the process, but I tried to control it until the end, at least. He had done really well at not eating anything for many cookies in a row, but once I let him eat one marshmallow, it was a free-for-all!
