Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar?

So my kid is in love with Sugar Cookies!

Some youth from our church dropped off some frosted Christmas sugar cookies last night and the challenge of keeping them out of the kids reach began immediately.

3 attempts have been made by Hudson today in his quest for this sweet, delicious, sugary substance. (And the day is only a few hours old)

Attempt #1

While I was on the phone in my office, Hudson pulled a chair over to the counter to reach the plate of frosted sugar cookies sitting just out of his reach. Caught him just before he could get one into his mouth.

Attempt #2

I moved the cookies to the top of the microwave which I new he would have no way to reach them now, then headed back to my bedroom to get dressed. Kase came running into my room screaming, "Hudson is going to fall, he's stuck up on the counter!"

Sneaky little devil.

K, so the cookies went in the garbage and are now out on the curb.

Problem solved. Or was it?

Attempt #3

Last night at our Young Women's craft night we frosted Christmas Sugar Cookies. At the end of the night I dropped all of the extra frosting and supplies in a box and brought it home, then set it on my counter to unload later.

Well Hudson must have a nose like a hound dog because he sniffed that box right out, climbed up on the kitchen table, snagged the color frosting of his choice (red) and began to feast.

If you'll notice he started with his fingers first, but must have noticed what a mess it was making and decided to remove the middle man (his fingers) and just go straight from frosting tub to mouth.

I can't imagine where his love of frosting comes from??? :)

(Let me just say, it's not Dan.)

So...I've had enough frosting patrol for one morning. Is it nap time yet?
