rebellious, I tell ya!

So... yesterday the girls did something they've never done before.  They went to A STORE with me!  We cheated.  We've been "cooped" up for quite a while now (for very good reason- flu and rsv could be very bad for my girls to catch), BUT it's getting closer to the end of the season AND the girls are very healthy (and quite big these days).  I've been in the mood to bake-- which is quite challenging with the girls, but still in the mood.  I decided to make sugar cookies from Kelly's Recipe Blog for my friend, Rachel's, upcoming baby shower Saturday that I'm helping hostess.  WE (all 3 of us!!!) went to Michael's yesterday to get blue food coloring (the gel kind) and a round cookie cutter.  All of my cookie cutters are either holiday specific or girly and Rachel's having a boy!  So I will attempt to make these cookies and put baby Drew's initials on them... we'll see how it goes.  Can't wait to tell you all about her shower-- I've found some pictures of inspiration and am SO excited with all the decor... more to come on that.  It was so funny at the store-- I had the girls in the "limo" (double stroller) and covered up their carriers with blankets-- we don't want germy, stranger hands on my babies.  Good thing I did because the 2 check out ladies were practically standing on their heads trying to peek at the girls under the blankets- ha!  I was strong and didn't budge- even though I was dying to show off my beautiful miracles.  Soon.  For now, my 5 minute trip to Michaels making me feel ohhhh so rebellious and pleased.  (I'm quite the rule follower, you know :) ).
