Dealing with the Wrath of the Kendallnator

In the afternoons when Kendall and I get home from work and daycare, if Kendall isn't sleep, I usually give her a little snack while she watches cartoons.  I was trying to get dinner started, but Kendall got a little fussy with me. 

The first picture is Kendall in rare form better known as the Kendallnator.  Yikes, I'm scared....LOL

The second picture is my sweet baby girl while she eats her snack (fruit loops and milk).  Glad I was able to calm her down before she bit my head off....lol

Gotta love this girl!

Lemon Cookies

I got this recipe from pinterest.com  The person that posted it said that she won a contest with these.  Lemon is my favorite flavor of cake/cookie, so I thought I would try them.  The recipe says they make 2-3 dozen, but I ended up with 18 cookies.  Anywho, they are sooooo good and soft.  Definitely a must try!!!!

 

 

Lemon Crinkles

 

Yield: 2-3 dozen
Prep Time: 20 min
Cook Time: 10 min
Total Time: 30 min

Ingredients:

½ cups Butter, Softened
1 cup Granulated Sugar
½ teaspoons Vanilla Extract
1 whole Egg
1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
1 Tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
¼ teaspoons Salt
¼ teaspoons Baking Powder
⅛ teaspoons Baking Soda
1-½ cup All-purpose Flour
½ cups Powdered Sugar

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease light colored baking sheets with non stick cooking spray and set aside.
In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Whip in vanilla, egg, lemon zest and juice. Scrape sides and mix again. Stir in all dry ingredients slowly until just combined, excluding the powdered sugar. Scrape sides of bowl and mix again briefly. Pour powdered sugar onto a large plate. Roll a heaping teaspoon of dough into a ball and roll in powdered sugar. Place on baking sheet and repeat with remaining dough.
Bake for 9-11 minutes or until bottoms begin to barely brown and cookies look matte {not melty or shiny}. Remove from oven and cool cookies about 3 minutes before transferring to cooling rack.
*If using a non stick darker baking tray, reduce baking time by about 2 minutes.

Happy Valentine's Day

 

These are the gifts that Kendall gave to her classmates and to her teachers at daycare.

 

Uncle Brant, Aunt Keisha, and the girls gave Kendall a chocolate cupcake from Gigi's for Valentine's Day.  Let's just say that she quite enjoyed it.  LOL

Kendall's latest photo shoot

Today, I took some pictures of Kendall.  I know I am biased, but this kid is so photogenic.  This first picture is funny because Scott's papa use to call him "Scott looking out the window" because Scott was always looking out the window.  When I saw Kendall looking out the window, I ran real fast to get the camera.  I'm so glad I got this shot.  Now, we can call Kendall, "Kendall looking out the window."  Gotta love these moments!

Kendall looking out the window

 Here are 4 up close and personal poses of Miss Kendall.  Isn't this just the cutest face you've ever seen?

 

 Here are some miscellaneous pictures from Kendall's photo shoot.

 

Sunday's Best-Family Edition

We had a little extra time before church, so we took a few family pics.  Check out the Dismutes on their way to praise the Lord!

 

 

Leave it to pinterest.com to introduce something else to us.  Scott saw this new way to tie his tie.  It's called the Eldredge knot.  Quite snazzy if I do say so myself.

My Kendall-Wendell in their Jordan's



Kendall recently got a pair of Jordan's.  Scott has been an avid collector of Jordan shoes for years, so I must say that he was quite enthused about Kendall getting some.  I was a little iffy about Kendall having these shoes because they are more of a boys shoe.  Any who, I've gotten creative with some outfits to make it more girlie.  Kendall is wearing red tights, a blue jean skirt, white onesie, blue jean jacket, red headband, and of course her Jordan's (the 5's to be exact).  Below are some pictures of Kendall and her daddy in their Jordan's together.  Yes, they both have on the same shoes.  Gotta love my Kendall-Wendell.
