It's almost March?!!

I have been so busy! Like, mind boggling, can’t believe it busy. Since I started with the cookies, around Christmas, I’ve managed to bake enough cookies to raise $725! In addition to $600 in extra donations from some ladies that are so incredibly kind, we have already raised $1325 towards Prader-Willi syndrome research. THIS IS HUGE!! My goal for the whole year was to raise $1000 in cookie sales.

March 2nd marks my first Farmers Market. I thought it would be a great idea, and a way of getting my name out there. OMG. I wish I would have known how busy I would be just on word of mouth sales! I baked almost 200 cookies this weekend, and decorated and packaged them. We also went to three birthday parties, and somehow managed to stay on top of housework. (My hubby is the best!)

I have one order to finish tomorrow, for a fun baby shower, and then the craziness of baking for a market begins!

 

Ellie is amazing as ever, although we are struggling with unwanted weight gain. It’s hard to see her gaining when it feels like we’re doing everything right. Definitely time to cut the carbs, because this little Chiquita has no business having wrist rolls!

 

I’ll post photos of my cookies and the littles when my computer decides it wants to cooperate!

In any case, I just wanted to say Hi to those of you who still check in here! I hope you’re doing well!
