Birthday Boy!

JJ had his first birthday and I went all out and made this awesome Sesame Street train cake the night before his party. That night while we were sleeping our American Bulldog, Brooklyn, decided it smelled pretty good and ate the first two cars. When I woke up the next morning I was just too stunned to be mad. I had to redo the first two cars but the other two she hadn't touched. It just made for some extra work for me!


Opening his presents, the older girls at the party (not me, Chiara, Alissa and Stori) were more interested in opening gifts than he was. He was just mad that the toys he got were in packages and he had to wait to play with them.
At first he wasn't sure what to do with the cake. I had to smash his fingers into the frosting before he realized this was going to be fun. I don't think he ate any of it but he had a good time!

That cake is AWESOME. I love the cars - is it a mold? You can do all my kids cakes too!
