Cakes & Kids

TRES LECHES CAKE

I made THIS cake today as our Family Home Evening treat.  It was super simple to make and is SO SO good.  Click on the link and give it a peek on The Pioneer Woman's blog.

I LOVE THIS KID!
Yesterday, Sunday, all 6 of my family were at church together for the first time in a couple of months. It was Clara's first trip to church and it was so nice to be there all together.  I had intended to only go to sacrament meeting and then take Hayden & Clara home, I'm just not ready for all of the germs, plus Hayden HATES & I mean HATES nursery.  He loses all control if we even attempt to leave him there.  But after sacrament meeting was over he said he wanted to go to Nursery, so I thought I would let him try.  As we neared the classroom door he would run the other way, but then would turn around and come back.  I finally convinced him that mom & Clara would sit in there with him (so much for wanting to avoid the germs!) and he agreed to go in.  When we get in there though, he clings to my leg for five minutes before venturing out to get a toy.  Well....after about 20 minutes Clara was getting fussy and needed to be fed I knew Hayden would not last w/o me, so we headed home. 
When Colby & Cameron got home from church an hour or so later Hayden says to Cameron, "I tried to go to Nursery but I just cried." 

I think I will miss having a 2 year old around the house, they are just so darn cute!  Busy Yes. But fun to have around none-the-less.  I mean who doesn't love a kid that looks like this (see below) and whose favorite toys are golf clubs, credit cards & "low low's"(phones). 
I don't love that he can unlock every door in our house and head outside whenever he feels like it. It's gonna be a long summer :)
