People warned me everything would take twice as long as a mom, but I truly had no idea! It’s like getting out the door with a diaper bag and a bit of makeup feels like I’ve run a half marathon and really deserve a cookie.

Speaking of cookie, we’ve posted every year about one of our favorite holiday dates- making and decorating sugar cookies for Christmas. I was a little nervous it wouldn’t happen this year with our newfound parenting status, but I’m so thankful that the saying “There are no shortcut in life” just isn’t true when it comes to baking! Betty Crocker® Sugar Cookies (and Peanut Butter) have helped us with convenient products to create an easy solution that works with any budget.

With a few shortcuts we were able to pull off faster baking and spread cheer with some simple surprises for a fun family date night!

I just can’t get over how fun everything is with a baby. He’s so interested in the world around him and it’s reminding me to really slow down and enjoy quality time as a family and appreciate everything.

How are creating family time and spreading cheer this holiday season?
