What we do for our children...

All Abby has been saying is that she wanted a Nemo cake for her birthday. Brian said it would be easiest to just buy one with an edible image on it, but I really had my mind set on making one. For awhile now I have wanted to experiment with fondant icing. It always looked like a lot of fun and being an artist it would give me the opportunity to create. Overall I think it turned out well for a first attempt. It was very time consuming, but worth it when we saw the look on Abby's face. I think the next one I do will be more simple :)

Here are some pictures from the party. Making homemade ice cream, wacking a pinata, cake, presents and running through a sprinkler! We would like to thank May-May and Grandma for tracking down all the wonderful Nemo supplies.

Can't believe we have a 3 year old!

And Leah is right around the corner from 6 months. I posted many photos of the girls at http://47moments.com/blog/. You'll have to check them out :)

Birthday Celebration

Grandma Henderson and Aunt Katie were here visiting, so we had an early birthday party for Abby. It was just a small family party. Next week she'll get to celebrate with all of her friends. It was fun watching Abby excited about her birthday. We even went to Chuck-E Cheese's afterwords which was a lot of fun.






















































Poppy and May-May got her a softball and bat. Brian and Abby were playing before he had to go to a game.
