Broken: one rubber spatula, one egg on the floor
Spilled: one box of cereal (on the stairs), two cups of milk (on the table), one jumbo box of goldfish (on the carpet)
Ruined: one double recipe of chocolate drop cookies
Burned: one sheet of chocolate drop cookies, two fingers, and one arm
Lost: several tempers
Found: resolution to never bake for the holidays again

Hopefully by the time next year rolls around, your memory of the "Pain" of the combined Broken/Spilled/Ruined/Burned/Lost will have sufficiently dulled so that your commitment to keep the "Found" resolution fades. We all truly LOVE your holiday baking! (Sorry for the troubles)
Never say never, my dear. It WILL get easier, I promise. Baking with little ones is a real challenge, but they do grow up and actually become helpful. I'm sure you will eventually have FUN baking experiences with your darling kiddos. Hang in there!
Oh shoot. It does get easier down the road, but I so hear ya.
I made the same resolve myself--- and it was only me, not me plus two littles :)
I have successfully dodged holiday baking so far this year. I so feel your pain, I *hate* cooking with little people! I am not a good mom on this one. Hope tomorrow is better. <3
Bah humbug! Sorry for your pain. I know the feeling and it's not a good one. Hugs!
