Brent & the Baby

I found my old bitty baby and showed it to Brent.

He hated the doll at first, and was making it do kung fu..

Then after a few minutes, he put it in his shirt and I think he and bitty baby bonded :)

he left it in his shirt for a good half hour

Hut-2-3-4

I've known Richelley since we were little wee ones, and I'm so excited to be in her wedding! Her sister Dani threw her bridal shower this weekend, and i must say..she did an amazing job! When I heard it was "asian-themed", I was expecting to be greeted with a kimono and some miso soup, but when I walked in and saw the place, I was actually speechless! (which is a rare thing for me). Dani had planned every detail perfectly, even down to the cute little ribbons on the chopsticks :)I made some basic chocolate cupcakes with whipped chocolate frosting, and added some little paper flowers to match all the other beautiful cherry blossoms

Looking at these pictures are making me crave a little chocolate midnight snack...

Oakley Turns Three!

Today was Oakley May's 3rd birthday! She is getting so big I can hardly believe it :)

Stephanie made some cutesie princess castle cupcakes with pink sprinkles, Oakley kept staring at them with sparkles in her eyes all night. She was so happy the whole night, I adore this picture of her.

We played with her new farm animals barn set together. Whenever I told her "Happy birthday Oakley!", her response was, "Happy birthday Wicowina!"

Eventually, I think the sugar got the best of her...

Happy birthday princess Oakley!

A Castle for the Princess

For as long as I can remember, my sister Cristina has been a bit obsessed with anything princess-like. From the t-shirts, socks, piggy banks, crowns, etc. If a princess logo could be stamped onto it, she owned it. So naturally the first thought when planning her birthday party was to do a princess theme! Many pink balloons, streamers, and paper crowns later..all that was left was the cake. Two layers of chocolate with white cream frosting in between, coated in a smooth buttercream finish. Ice cream cone towers rolled in millions of flamingo pink crystals, and purple detailing to finish it off. This one was a lot of work, but definitely worth it. Happy 24th birthday Cristina!
