Peanut Butter Cookies


Well, about a year or so ago I was pregnant with Adam and home with the girls like any old day and got the urge to bake homemade cookies. I hardly ever bake anything unless it's around Thanksgiving or Christmas, which means I was out of flour, didn't have any brown sugar, or chocolate chips. I decided to search the internet for an easy way to make peanut butter cookies......and I found a great one. It's the easiest too, and I'm sure everyone has already known about this forever, but anyhow here's the recipe


1 cup peanut butter

1 cup sugar

1 egg


That's right! That's all you need!! Mix it altogether and roll into balls, use a fork to make the lattice looking top, sprinkle with a little sugar and bake @ 375 fr 8-11 minutes.....(9 works best for me).


Since then I can't seem to stop baking them! So if you would like to try them beware, they're addicting! I even tried to make another kind with all the usual baking good stuff and they didn't even taste like peanut butter cookies! So there you go! It's super easy and not a lot of clean up either! All my kiddos love them, with the exception of Maximus.....not big enough yet ;)

The birthday girls!






Well, the girls had a great birthday party at Pump It Up. We had family and friends there and it was perfect! It's overwhelming to think we have a 4 year old and a 3 year old! And it's really overwhelming to think that Joy will be starting kindergarten in 2010! Once you have kiddos time sure does fly by! Nothing major has been going on at our house lately, just the same stuff that happens everyday. Sunshine is teething and is getting all 4 of her 1 year molars, no fun for anybody, but she has been sleeping more than I expected she would so that's great! Over spring break my friend Michelle and her two little boys came to visit! We had so much fun! It was great seeing them! Maximus will be 6 months old this month and I can't believe it!
