This post may surprise some of you that know the way I feed Layla. You see, I tend to be a bit
nuts diligent about keeping her on a vegetarian, dye-free, limited preservatives, limited sugar, mostly organic diet. Maybe it was the Christmas spirit, or maybe it's that I'm starting to get the side eye from other Moms as yet another birthday party passes where I say "No cake for Layla, she'll just have these grapes," but I loosened the reins a little today. I hosted a Christmas cookie decorating party for Layla and her friends. Complete with store bought icing, though I did make healthier versions of the cookies. She had a great time and mostly just licked the frosted off her cookie. I'm happy to report that she didn't even finish an entire cookie before she handed it to me and said "all done cookie!" and got up and went to play with her toys. I've trained her well!

Cookie decorating...
...and cookie sampling
This is what a little girl that just had frosting for the first time looks like!
Oh, and this happened while we were waiting for our friends to arrive:
Two best buds, just hanging out under the Christmas tree
