Mmmm... Brownies

Ian helped me make brownies the other day and discovered the joy of licking the beater. Childhood pleasures. Although maybe not such a childhood pleasure - it's still a favorite of mine! It's a testament of my love for Ian that from now on he will be the reciepient of the beater. mmmm...

Aaron and I have some time off this week. Ian's daycare is closed so we decided to make a week of it. Aaron has the week off and I have Wed through Sun off. I was originally looking around for camping or thinking about what we should do (always doing). Aaron had the wonderful idea of doing absolutely nothing. So we are camping out in the backyard maybe doing some looking for a new used car and some adventuring around the city, but only if we feel like it. We are going to have a couple of friends over to BBQ on the 4th and we bought some fireworks in Indiana (Krazy Kaplans!) on the way back from MI so that'll be fun. We might check out the Oak Park fireworks or the parade in the am since it is within walking distance. It all depends on how Ian is holding up. I have a feeling he will love fireworks! If he takes after his Mom and Dad that is! Happy Fourth of July!

The next joy the finger scoop in the cookie dough when you aren't looking. Yum!!! I as an uncle could teach him that one.
