Peanut butter & Chocolate with a peanut butter glaze frosting... Mmmm can't go wrong with these so I thought I'd share this recipe!

Renee's Peanut Butter Bars 
1/2 C. butter, softened
1/2 C. sugar
1/2 C. brown sugar
1/2 C. creamy peanut butter
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp vanilla
1 C. flour 
1/2 C. quick cooking oats
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 C. chocolate chips

Icing:
1/2 C. powdered sugar
2 Tbsp. creamy peanut butter
2 Tbsp milk

Directions:

In a mixing bowl cream butter, sugars, and peanut butter. 
Add egg & vanilla; mix well. 
Combine flour, oats, baking soda, and salt; stir into the creamed mixture. 
Spread into a greased 9x13 pan. 
Sprinkle with chocolate chips.
Bake @ 350 for 15 minutes- baking time varies per oven...basically DO NOT over back. These are best gooey chewy, I usually watch for the edges to start puffing up a little more than the rest and slightly turning brown. 
Cool 10 minutes before frosting 
*Note: can double for jelly roll pan

I just love walking into his room in the morning and he is standing there with a paci hiding his smile and a quiet little "hi" greets me. Hi to you too buddy! 

Helping me organize cupboards took a lot longer probably than if I would have chosen to do this feat during nap time but it worked and he had fun
 



still loves talking on the phone and has even figured out which contact is "Joe" and will frequently call daddy in the middle of work if he gets bored and mommy left her real phone around for his fast little fingers


loves "shoos" and trying them on and bringing them to me when he wants to go outside


Foodie Potluck was a Shrimp Boil-Yum!




Our morning routine is usually getting every blankie out of his crib and snuggling in the chair for a little (unless he's ready to go then its off playing) but he usually brings back some books and we read for a little before getting breakfast. One morning we read "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" He tried eating the pickle right out of the book (yes its even next to all those wonderful cakes, and ice creams and he choose the pickle!) Can you guess what he wanted for breakfast?! Oh Drew you make us smile!
