Hummingbird Nests

So last night I kicked Kelsi and Craig out of their own house so I could have a play date with Brayden. We had big plans. Go to the store for supplies, eat dinner, watch a movie, make nests, Eat candy, take a bath, play hide and seek...

So we started off at the store and he was obsessed with playing with my iPod. He kept saying "I need your iPod" and I would say, "No you don't" and he would come back with "Uh...Why not?"

It was so cute! He said "Why not?" to a lot of things. Some of them didn't even make sense but its still adorable.

So we started making our Hummingbird nests.

We took 1 cup of chocolate chips and melted it on the stove. Brayden did a great job stirring!

Then after the chocolate was melted I threw in a cup of shredded coconut and mixed it all together while Brayden poured it in. Then we rolled in into balls and pressed a hole in the middle to make it look like a nest.

Brayden doesn't like to get his hands dirty most of the time. He usually has a heart attack if he spills on himself. I was determined to get those little hands dirty and have him like it!

Success!

 While our treat was in the fridge cooling off for about 40 minutes, we watched some of Tangled while eating chocolate. Braydens favorite thing. Eating candy while watching a movie.

After the nests were cool, Brayden put the eggs in. He decided which nest was whose. He left one nest empty so he could eat it right away :)

We had a great time hanging out! If I don't have any of my own kids yet, I will just keep borrowing other peoples!  Especially cute ones like Brayden :)
