Not so cozy

My son decided a couple of weeks ago that he longer wanted to sleep. He also decided that he was going to make the great escape from the crib. Ah....and so the terrible twos begin.
It's been interesting to say the least. The tears, the screams and my favorite, the giggle that says, "I win again Momma." Ash is getting closer to getting back on schedule, but he seems to mostly want comfort now.
 I can't help but laugh most of the time. He's just so cute about it. As he lays down and then barely opens his eyes to check to see if I'm still there making sure he'll nap. He cracks me up as he sneaks down the hall all super stealth to peek into the office. He then tried scooting his butt down the hall and smiling at me when he came around the corner. Last night, he climbed in the bed with my husband & I for the first time. Aww, my super sweet snuggler! Three headbutts, 2 kicks & nearly getting knocked off the bed later, not so sweet, not so cozy. I will definitely be hooking up the coffee IV today.

S'more pockets

I love s'mores! I saw something like this & I just had to try it. S'mores are messy so I'm loving the craze of creating all the different kinds of s'more desserts. These babies are so delicious & easy to make. The marshmallows melt into the bread making it sweet. Though when I first saw that I was a little disappointed until I tried it. I won't actually admit that I ate the entire batch in 24 hours, possibly less, instead I'll add that my son did help with the eating. 

1 can reduced fat crescent rolls (not buttery)

Bag of mini marshmallows 

Hershey bar or chocolate chips

Lay your crescent roll flat, add some chocolate on the crescent roll, then a few mini marshmallows. 

Bundle them up so that there are no open spaces & then bake according to roll directions. Drool as you wait & enjoy!

Cream cheese sandwiches

I remember having a love of food & cooking early on. I had my little kid cookbooks so that I could feel like I got to make stuff too. In my most adventurous & silly cookbook, Strawberry shortcake, I remember these delicious sandwiches. I still love them & enjoy sharing them with my son. 

Cream cheese sandwich:

Take one slice of bread & cut off the crust. Then smear some cream cheese onto the bread. Sprinkle some Real bacon bits on top. Roll the bread jelly roll style. Spear a green olive on a toothpick & then the sandwich to keep together. Serve.
