Big Brother Sam and Little Sissy Jennifer


Today I had the pleasure meeting Miss Jennifer for the first...

She is a Cutie!

She blessed this world two weeks ago and I couldn't wait to see her.
If you follow my blog you would know her Mother is the manager of the Salon.
Knowing how hectic things can be after a new baby, 
I waited a bit before I made a visit.

The "Big" guy in the picture is Big Brother Sam,
His mother shared, Sam is a little tired of the "taking pictures" thing since Jennifer arrived..
When first asked if he wanted to be in a picture with Jennifer, 
A shake of the head and a very clear "NO" let me know he wasn't having any of it any time soon..
Eventually Sam found his way over to be in a picture:)

I could sit and hold Jennifer all day...! 
She is doing very well with her sleeping and has a very hardy appetite. 
And, I must say...
she already has her Daddy wrapped around her finger..!



 Jennifer is wearing the Head Band I gave her





Sam decided it's not so bad to have his picture taken...

Since I had a bag filled with goodies for Jennifer, I couldn't forget about her Big Brother..!


I made some Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Sandwich Cookies just for Sam..! 
His Mother says, Sam never met a cookie he didn't like:)

I only had this one picture to show you at the time of this post.
Very simple and very little time needed to create these little cookie sandwiches...

I used a package of Betty Crocker Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix,
made small balls from the dough and baked at 375 for 10-12 mins.
Immediately after placing them on rack or towel to cool,
I flattened them slightly with the spatula so they looked more like a sandwich.
I allowed them to cool, and spread a cream cheese icing on the flat side of one cookie and place 
another cookie flat side, on top of the icing making a Sandwich..

I wanted to keep the cookies small in size for Sam,
especially since I was using two cookies.
during my visit, Sam ate two..!
I think they're a winner.. I told Sam to give back the empty bucket and I'll fill it again:)

Recipe for Icing

8 oz of soft cream cheese.
1/2 stick of soft butter
1 teaspoon of Vanilla
4 cups of Powdered Sugar (10X)

Mix with Mixer cream cheese and butter together until very smooth, 
Add the Vanilla and continue mixing adding the sugar gradually.  Mix until very smooth.
I had way more than I needed for these sandwich cookies, 
but the good thing is...the icing freezes very well.


Thanks for stopping by and have a great Weekend..!

  2. Good Saturday Morning K, It looks like that precious little Baby is very comfortable and snug in your arms. And I am sure those cookies were just what that handsome little man needed to warm up to you and to the camera. Such a sweet gesture on your part to think of this young fellow too. Thanks for sharing the icing. I just love cream chese icing. Bet it would be great on homemade chocolate chip cookies as well. Have a great weekend. Got Snow??
