Gingerbread Men

We made gingerbread men today. Quite a test of patience for someone (YOU) who has NO IMPULSE CONTROL! Give you a taste of batter and you have to have 50. When I finally told you that if you took more tastes you wouldn't be able to help any more, you said "but that's what kids and mamas and dadas do!" with your inflection insinuating that it's "no big deal mama". You say some things sometimes. . .I just can't even believe that you are only three, well almost three. Speaking of, we're hearing a lot about what you want for your birthday. I think we started it by asking you what you wanted ("a Dinoco Chick Hicks"), and now it's snowballed into you looking for "special presents" around every corner. "Is that special present for my birthday?". 

You are my Max, and you are irresistible. :-)
