Fruity Pebbles Cookies

 

Emma found this recipe on Pinterest, she saw we had Fruity Pebbles cereal and asked if we could make them. The cookies are easy to make and are different but you will eat more than just one to see if you like them. Emma and Peyton gave them thumbs up, Hayden didn't.

 

 

1 (3.4 oz) package of vanilla pudding mix

1 1/2 soften stick of butter

1 cup sugar

2 eggs

1 teaspoon of vanilla

1 teaspoon baking soda

2 cups Fruity Pebbles cereal

2 1/4 cups flour

 

Preheat oven to 350. line cookie sheet with parchment paper

 

Cream together butter and sugar. Add pudding mix till well blended. Add eggs and vanilla then slowly add the flour and baking soda until all is combined, fold in Fruity Pebbles.

 

Scoop 1" balls and place on cookie sheet, press flat just a bit, bake 10-12 minutes. Let cool and enjoy!

 

(the recipe said to add white chocolate chips didn't saw how much, we didn't add thinking it would be to sweet but I think you could try)

 

Hayden is 6!!!!!!

                         Before school breakfast

 

 

A few months behind (ok 5 months late), hard to believe he is 6 years old.

 

Hayden: all boy, full of energy, loving, full of dinosaur knowledge, creature loving, big imagination, gives the best hugs, story teller, Boy Scout, and donut lover.

 

That's our Hayden, we love how God made you!

For our core subjects: Math, Reading, Grammar and Vocabulary we are using MobyMax. For Spelling we get our weekly words from K5 website. We also have a few different workbooks that we pull from.  For February we will be adding History and Geography with Heroes of History curriculum. Emma will be working more on her Cursive and Peyton will begin to learn Cursive.

 

 

 

Will the real Champ please stand up!

 

Champ is so patient, the kids use him as a pillow, lay stuff animals on him and chase him round the house. Champ is a sweet loving dog.

Our last first tooth.

 

Hayden lost his 1st tooth March 2014 (ugh I don't keep up with posting and pictures as I would like to hopefully I will do better in 2015). Look at all that cuteness and since then he has lost 4 more.
