Mix & Match

Kiera a little unsure when we were singing "Happy Birthday"
Caleb and Joel were so enthused....
This was Kiera's b-day cake. We had a Pretty Pony theme. I was quite pleased with how this turned out. I had only a picture from online to go by and wasn't sure if it was going to work.
Joel and Caleb very excited with their exersaucers ( :
"What are you lookin' at?? Don't bother me, I'm busy" (Caleb)

Birthday #1 (her actual b-day). Oma helped make cupcakes since we were in the hospital.

"Ahhhh....this oxygen makes you sleepy"


Hope you enjoyed all the pictures. Tonight we had Kiera's b-day party with all her cousins, uncles & aunt from the area. She was SOOO excited and kept tackling her cousins and trying to pin them. Ya, such a girly girl. So much for the pretty pony girl theme! She is very in to My Little Pony and has quite a few and knows each of their names. She decided long ago that this was the cake she wanted. It turned out pretty good. For her party we had supper together and then cake and opened gifts. The highlight for her was her cupcake maker. She has been wanting this since Christmas when she saw it in an advertisement. She was so excited to get this from her aunts & uncles. It makes the cupcakes (in 30 sec...not sure how edible these are going to be and then frosts them). She didn't need anything else once she saw this. Thankfully we had some cupcakes leftover from when my mom was here and each kid got a turn to frost theirs. Overall she had a great evening and lots of fun with her cousins. Caleb and Joel just enjoyed all the attention and Kiera thinks we should save the cake until their birthday. Won't they be excited come Dec.!!!

Nice work on the cake! It came out so cute, and I'm impressed you only had a picture to follow! Looks like Kiera had a great party, even if it was a little late. Glad to hear all the kids are on the mend...hopefully we'll see you tomorrow at church! :)

Awesome cake! Very very cute. I can't believe how big the boys are getting. Hopefully you guys had a restful night last night and the twins slept good.

I'm glad you said, "It turned out pretty good!" or something like that. Yeah..Mom, with 3 kids(2 being twin babies who just were VERY sick)is ok to use store bought cakes and YET you made a very special one for your beloved daughter...Sheri you are a good mama! (and you'd still be a good mama if you'd bought the cake....but it is pretty cute!)
