If I were only my Mom....

So I spent part of my day covered in frosting...and am now suffering a serious sugar headache from sampling such frosting! I've been obsessing over making Ava's 1st birthday cake perfect! I searched the internet for pictures of what I had in mind and flipped through a few cake books to perfect my image. Well, I'm no pro! My mom always made these fabulous cakes for our Birthdays when we were younger, and I just want to be able to do that for my kids. I'm not including a picture yet, you'll have to wait till after Ava's birthday a week from this Friday (24th), but I think it turned out cute~~even with a few flaws! Jeremy wasn't very helpful in making me feel good about it, but what does he know anyway??? Can't wait to show you all, but gotta wait a week and a half. Now if my head would stop pounding.....

my mom was great with birthdays, too.

we try to do good birthdays here, but we buy the cakes from Sam's club. we all have our own talents, right? ;-)

It will turn out just fine. It usually takes a few times and errors before you get it just right. With Connor's cake, it took me all day to finish it and even then, it had some flaws. I can empathize with the sugar headaches.....
