Chloe's Birthday, Take Two

I went to Kroger and bought two little cakes so that the kids could celebrate Chloe's birthday on the actual day. I wanted to do something to commemorate the day, but not too much since we had already celebrated in Van Vleck a few weeks before.

Chloe's was a white cake with pink and purple icing that tinted her little face. She looked like The Joker when she was finished, as the pictures will attest! I'll have to be sure to get a cake with lighter icing when I have her pictures made.

Sawyer's was a chocolate cake with yellow and red icing. I was worried that the red icing might make him break out, but I think that he may be outgrowing that contact allergy.

It was so easy to just go to the bakery and pick out a few cakes. It almost makes me want to do that for Sawyer's birthday party on Memorial Day weekend, okay, not really, but almost! I hate to admit it, but I love baking the cakes and making the icing myself!

Gotta love a girl who's not afraid to get her hands dirty.

How can you not love that smile?

This is one of my favorite pictures of Chloe Bug to date...it's Mini Me!

Sawyer loved his chocolate cake.
