We have a bottle drinker! (finally)

After Kaleb turned (about) three months, he wanted nothing... NOTHING to do with his bottle.

Nursing and Mommy's milk only.

Overall, I had no problem with that, but I can't go anywhere or do anything!

Today, on a whim, I decided to give it another try. Keep in mind, I've tried, his Dad has tried, his grandma and aunts have tried. and he flat out REFUSED.

When I offered it to him, he held it himself and drank it up!

Hopefully he doesn't out right reject it again, but so far so good.

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

So, I was clearing out our cupboard and found a can of pumpkin leftover from the Holidays and I  just HAD to make these.

They are my favorite cookie, though they taste more like delicious little muffin tops.

Try it!

Ingredients

• 1 Cup pumpkin 
• 1/2 Cup oil 
• 2 Cups flour 
• 1 tsp. cinnamon (or pumpkin pie spice) 
• 1 tsp. baking soda 
• 1 Cup chocolate chips 
• 3/4 Cup sugar 
• 1 egg 
• 2 tsp. baking powder 
• 1/2 tsp. salt 
• 1 tsp. milk 
• 1 tsp. vanilla 

Directions 

1. Mix baking soda in milk and set aside. 
2. In a big bowl add pumpkin, sugar, oil and egg then mix. 
3. Add flour, baking powder cinnamon, salt and baking soda mixture. 
4. Stir in chocolate chips and vanilla
5. Spoon onto a cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 10-12 minutes. 
6. Let cool. I think they taste their best a couple hours later, right from the refrigerator. 

makes about a cookie sheet and a half

So bready and delicious.

SO GOOD!
