Our cooks...

The boys seem to be facinated with "cooking".  It all started when I was trying to bake cookies for the bake sale.  It's somewhat difficult to bake with two little guys underfoot.  So, I gave them some spatulas to play with.  Brian was playing with one of the boys later that night, and they would stir, then taste the "imaginary pudding".  Now, the boys get my pasta strainers out of the cupboard, "ask" for spoons or spatulas, and make "mmmmmm" noises during their tastings.  It is totally cute.


Easter fanned the flames.  First, the boys loved playing with the O'Connor's toy kitchen.  We even had to keep a close eye on them, as they were putting their sippy cups into the fridge.   

Next, cousin Katelin decided that the boys needed to "look the part"...so she dressed them up in aprons and chef hats!





The boys played "kitchen" most of the day on Saturday, other than when they were eating or hunting Easter eggs.  Even when we arrived at Mawma and Pawpa's that night, they were excited to find another play kitchen!  They immediately started opening and shutting doors, and continued refining their cooking skills.

Daddy is a little sad that his boys are imitating mommy, but I think they will find things to "copy" daddy on too!
