It's official.....
..my baby Adilynn is no longer a baby in terms of months, now we are into the years!
She turned ONE on Sat the date was 6-7-08, which is neat cuz Aldon also was born on a cool date 2-3-04. So we skipped the 5 in there somewhere or else we could have a full rocket countdown to blast off, just from their dates!! She was loving playing the piano while we were waiting for our guests to arrive, My Piano Princess. Here's a bunch of pictures from the whole night. I had forgotten how entertaining it is to watch a 1 yr old dig into their first chocolate cake (since they can't have choc. till they are 1 yr) She was a perfect little timid girl at first, and then she dove right in once she actually tasted the frosting! This was my first attempt at doing a part Fondant Cake. It's a "present box" cake with pink/brown ribbons and polka dots, choc cake with cream cheese rasp filling. Mark didn't want me to do the whole thing in Fondant Frosting because, it isn't very good tasting, so he convinced me to use a Buttercream frosting for the base and then the ribbons are made out of the fondant. I've kinda taken up the hobby of creating fun cakes for special occasions for the family. I'll have to do a post of all the fun cakes I've done over the yrs for the kids' and Mark's birthdays.
Needless to say...the party hat came off pretty quick!

Adi got so many new fun things and some cute headbands that my sister made ~so cute she should sell these things~ and Adi got some cute clothes too. She got her first "baby doll" and "baby stroller" which by the end of the night she was pushing it all around the room, she loved it! Thanks to all who came and for all the sweet stuff!

She is so cute !! I am sad we missed it. I can't believe she is already 1 !!! We are so excited to see you guys this weekend, it will be lots of fun! Bring your swimming suits - our pool is open and warm. Oh My Gosh- what an amazing cake- you are so talented !!
Wow, what an awesome cake! Good job maybe I'll hire you to make cakes for all our special occasions! Or maybe you could teach me sometime. Definitely do a post of all your cakes that would be fun to see. Sorry I forgot to let you know about the lunch birthday today. I kept meaning to text you, but I was waiting until I knew for sure and then of course I forgot.:( Hope you all had fun. Rachelle and I were hanging out with our sister in law before she left. Anyway, talk to you later.
Happy Birthday! Looks like it was a hit. And the cake is gorgeous. I made Hailey's birthday cake and used a YUMMY fondant. Let me know if you want the recipe. It's more edible than the normal stuff.
And it sounds like your hubbie is a good man. Way to go Mark!
Your baby is 1? Wow! That is crazy how the numbers line up on your kids birthdays. I am so impressed by your cake. I didn't know you had that hobby. You should definitely show us your skills! And teach us too!
Oh my talent with cakes! Seriously, Adi's bday cake looks incredible! I bet it tasted even better! You're such a pro!
I can't believe how big Adi is now...happy belated birthday to her!! She's precious.
I can't believe she is already a year old. She is so cute. I cant wait to see her in person, I can't wait to see all of you. I almost want braces again just to see you more. Your cake was AMAZING, at first i thought you were kidding and really bought it. Wow, its professional. You should do that for a living! ps-love your blog. Say hi to aldon for me. love, Amber jo
