Or How To Make A Mess With Grandchildren.
Robin and I kept Jude and Baylee today so their parents could have a deserved day out. Part of our activities included decorating heart-shaped cupcakes I'd baked the night before. We used a strawberry cake mix for its pink color and the complimenting strawberry frosting. We had sprinkles and small heart-shaped cookies to adorn the tops of the cakes. This was Jude's and Baylee's special Valentine surprise for their parents.
As a boy, Jude found the activity fairly mundane. He ate the second cupcake he iced, and opted for sticking a cookie on top of the thrid cupcake without any frosting. Then he was off for more male-oriented fun.
Baylee, however, stayed interested long enough to frost 5 cupcakes. She had her own technique: ice a streak on the cupcake, lick the knife, ice a streak, lick the knife. I made sure those cupcakes made it home with Mom and Dad. Both little angels had "Happy Valentine's Day" ready when their parents arrived to take them and their masterpieces home.

Such beautiful grand kids! They must look like their mamma!
I agree! They sure are turning into little adults...Jude as a male, off to "building" bigger and better things while Baylee ever so sweetly taking special care (but still getting in her licks!)
Yes these two are adorable just like their momma was and is to this day.
Cheryl, you are too funny!
Hi Sissy. Love you!
What a fun day...seems like just yesterday you were doing this with Candice and Camryn, who are just so grown up now!
