for the cookie monster...

Last night Eleanor and I made cookies for the Cookie Monster. Ever since Halloween, Eleanor believes that John works with the cookie monster. Last week John's co-work, Blake and his wife came over and Blake was wearing the Bert costume that Eleanor calls the Cookie Monster. Eleanor didn't care too much for the mask, but she sure enjoyed the Cookie Monster, aka Blake. She sat on his lap most the night and had him read to her and play hide and seek with him. At one point when she was sitting on his lap she told him, "I like your face"! Anyway, it was really cute and Eleanor is smitten with Blake the Cookie Monster. So, we made him cookies and she even drew him a picture. John made sure to get a photo of us in our cute Christmas gifts from Sara!

No doubt she has John's smile!

It's nearly impossible to get her to give a normal smile!


Eating what she calls a "surprise" (anything off the beater)

Jules, you are such a cute mom! I love the matching aprons! You should tell Eleanor that the cookie monster moved to Ohio and send the cookies to me!
