snickerdoodles!

Guess what I did tonight? I made six dozen Snickerdoodles! I packaged all the cookies into cute Christmas tins to use as neighborhood gifts. They are SO yummy, so I had to share the recipe with you! I just have one warning for you when you make these, and that is don't sample the dough, because you won't be able to stop! I am on a serious sugar high right now! I'm going to have to take a little jog in the morning to work off all the excess calories, but it was well worth it!

Enjoy!

The recipe seems easy enough, can you post up a photo Lauren because I'd love to bake it here in Australia. I've NEVER heard of snickerdoodles!

Just My Story...

Over the past three years my life has been flipped upside down. I am 31 years old and have 4 beautiful angel babies, who are fondly known as my “Green Beans”. The first of my quads, Heidi, held on as long as she could and was born on January 31, 2009 after pPROMing at 17 weeks. A few weeks later, I pPROM’d with my sweet Lily. Lily, Paige, and Rylan were all born at 22 weeks on February 23, 2009. Just after being released from the hospital empty handed, I returned with a high fever and infection. Two of the nights I spent in the hospital that week, I honestly thought I was going to die. It was the sickest and most hopeless I’ve ever been. I’m pretty sure my diagnosis was a broken heart.

My journey to parenthood has definitely had its share of happiness and heartbreaks. I got through every day by staying close to friends and family, blogging, and trusting in God that my future will be bright. All the love and support I’ve gotten has greatly helped me manage……I am alive and well, and want to be my absolute best as a result of this.

On May 1st 2011, we welcomed our sweet baby girl, Taylor, into this world. She is my miracle baby and brings so much joy and happiness to my life. She is my reminder every day that God is good and faithful.

I have come out of all of this with a better appreciation of life. I hope to make the best of this situation by helping others who will experience a similar loss.
