Good gracious they're 3. Where does the time go?
We're trying to keep our stuff at a minimum so we picked out one toy each we knew they would love: a dress for Lily's elephant (complete with wand and tiara) and for Theo, a fire engine. As you can see from his shirt, he's already a little fire engine crazy - this was a hit and a half :)
Mom frosting the cake after Dad and the kids baked them. Ellie watched avidly almost the whole time.
Final product :) We asked what kind of cake the kids wanted: Lily said cherry, Theo said "RED!" so... et voila!
Theo loved being sung to.
Lily is just plotting that cake's destruction.
I missed the shot, but Theo had cake in one hand, ice cream in the other, and both in his mouth at the same time for a moment there.
Lily is bathing in the crumbs of her enemy!
A landmark: Dave said this cake was actually too sweet for him. I blame him though, he wouldn't let me add less sugar to the frosting :P Each cake was sliced in half long-wise with chopped cherries, cherry syrup, and ganache in the middle. It was a giant candy bar.
Lying on Dan, reading on Dan, he's just a cushion really :)
