Christmas Questionnaire

1. When do you decorate?

3. Christmas Cookies or No Baking for You?

I love baking cookies but didn't last year!  I really need to to it with my 9 year old and 2 year old!  I don't know if if will happen  this year but I do know an awesome bakery!  I can't eat the sugary foods because of  gestational diabetes so no fun for me!!! boo!
