Baking Day

It was a rainy day with lots of thunder and lightening today. The three of us stayed in our pj's all day! Since was yucky out and we couldn't play in the backyard, I decided we should bake muffins. JJ loves helping me, especially when it comes time to lick the beater! He then realized how yummy the batter tastes and started sticking his whole hand in the batter I had already put in the muffin tin. You can see how upset he got when it was time to bake!
