Christmas Eve

This Christmas, Xander and Mama carried on with their Christmas Eve tradition and made peanut butter cookies for Santa!  We decided that the cookies don't always have to be peanut butter, and we can make them another day before Christmas Eve, but this year we did the exact same thing as last.  Mama made the dough and Xander helped get the cookies ready to go into the oven.  


First we had to put on our red Christmas gear.


Then it was time to press the cookies.  Xander and Mama did that together.


The more cookies we pressed, the funnier Xander thought it all was.


Making cookies is fun, Mama!  I like making cookies with you!


When do we get to eat those?  Well, Xander, those are for Santa!


After the cookies finished baking, it was time for our bedtime routine while the cookies cooled.  When Xander would normally be reading books after bath time, we took him to leave the cookies for Santa by the tree instead.  Look at all the pretty lights and ornaments!


Mission accomplished!  The cookies are under the tree and Santa will most likely be thankful for the treats when he comes to put the presents under the tree!  Thanks, Xander, for making Santa feel appreciated!  Now, let's just see what you get for being such a good boy this year!
