Girl Slumber Party

Emmalee has her cousins over for a sleep over before school starts. They wanted to take 2 pictures one of them with their eyes open and one with them pretending to sleep. Aren't they cute. Emmalee is so blessed to have 2 girl cousins so close in age and close enough to be able to have sleep overs. I love it. I hope they are close forever

I love my big sis.

As I have explained in older posts Emmalee loves to play with Aiden. These two pictures are of how I find Aiden when I go to check on them.

Here he is riding a dinosaur

Emmalee hates how Aiden keeps crawling away from her so she put him in a basket so he would stay put.

Emmalee came running into my room and said "mom hurry come and bring your camera Aiden is superman." I walk out and this is what I found.

Iron Man

Last week was my brother in-law's birthday and I had been really wanting to make a cake with fondant so I volunteered to make him a cake. I decided to make an Iron Man cake for him. It is not as good as I had hoped. I am working on my skills. I need to get down the skill of having a perfect cake to ice and how to make my icing smooth so you cant see the bumps under the fondant. I guess it is all going to be trial and error. I love to do it so I don't mind trying it over and over. If anyone has any tips that can improve my skills I would be very grateful.(Gina hint hint)

I also made my own fondant. That was fun. I loved it.I wanted to find a method that I could use my kitchen aid with, so I went on utube and found one. Not as messy as doing it by hand. And a lot faster I'm guessing. The only sucky part is you have to hold up the dough hook at the beginning so the marshmallows don't get on the top flat part of the hook.

My First Cookie

Here is Aiden enjoying his first cookie. He loved it so. Anything that is eatable and not eatable he loves to put in his mouth and eat. He is my little chunk who loves to eat.
