My sister came over this afternoon and the children had so much fun making Teddy Bear Bread with her.
After it was finished, they blind-folded me and led me upstairs to see their creations.
Suffice it to say, they were a bit over-the-top excited. (I have a hunch they may have eaten quite a few chocolate chips while making it, from the looks of their faces!)
But it was a very special memory, despite the sticky chocolate mouths and finger prints on the kitchen wall. 🙂

So adorable! And can I just say that Kathrynne is looking more and more like you all the time? Not to mention so grown up… when did our girls get so old??? 🙂
Amy f;) says
🙂 THanks for sharing! So fun!
Michelle says
So cute!!! Does anyone know if the recipe would work on the dough cycle of a bread machine?
Janet says
The photos of your children lately just prove they get so big so fast! My first four are older and grown and not home often the middle child is a great help and growing so fast ~ My two littles are a great joy to us but the time is going so fast. As an older Mom (I am 60 , it often makes me sad how fast it goes by) Enjoy every moment!
It seems only yesterday that I was the 20 or 30 something Mama to my four older ones and they were the littles.
My granny use to always say “don’t blink” you will miss them growing up!
I have been reading your words since you were in the basement apartment.
Amanda says
Can you tell us how your sister adjusted the baking time to make smaller teddy bears? The recipe makes two large teddy bears. Thank you.
Julia says
Your kids are adorable.

Your children are so beautiful! My 5 kids are all in their 20’s now and some of our fondest memories are of cooking/baking together. When my 3 girls were little, they loved Anne of Green Gables and we bought the Anne of Green Gables cookbook and made the “raspberry cordial” as in the book and TV series. 20 years later, they still talk about it.
Jackie says
Precious!

So cute, may have to share on my blog too! Thanks so much!
Amanda says
I love these pictures! You can really tell they had a ton of fun. I’m not a mommy yet, but what a great idea for the future.
MPayShnt says
Thank you! I now have a Mommy-daughter project for tomorrow! I actually have all I need in the house—including the colorful thin ribbons because I just know all of our bears will have to be little girls. 🙂

Sara@Save Money, Live Joyfully says
I LOVE this idea! It would be a super cute party favor idea for birthday party or baby shower…and it looks delicious. (I can’t resist anything with chocolate anyway 🙂
Paula says
What a great family memory! Like you, my sister (the schoolteacher) always has the most creative recipes, crafts, etc. to share with her nieces and nephews. On a side note – I can’t get over how much our Henry resembles Silas – it cracks me up whenever you post a pic of him!
Jen says
I remember seeing those in Highlights High 5 magazine a couple years ago and made them with my then 2 year old. She’s 4 now but I’m sure she’d still love them. Thanks for sharing!
Jen @ MyPotpourriWorld says
OMG! How cute are those?! Love it 🙂
Lori says
I love how so many things that come out of your kitchen have chocolate chips in them 🙂
Bridgette @ Blessings Multiplied says
Super cute bears! That was sweet of your sister, what great memories your kids will have of the time spent with their Aunt. I have wonderful memories as a little kid when my aunts babysat us, we always had a blast when Mom and Dad were away. 🙂
The kids love it when we do the Beary Cute Cookies recipe from “Quick Cooking” around the Holidays.
