Lizzie had a good birthday (well, I think she did)...even if you can't tell from these very grumpy pictures. Lizzie just woke up from her nap a little bit before dinner and was still in groggy mode. That wore off pretty quick as dinner went on and she saw we were having a made-for-Lizzie dinner of homemade mac-n-cheese, diced up lunch meat, peas and applesauce. She loved it!! She got a new shirt and jacket from mom and dad and a toy block from her and Caitlin's blocks (Caitlin wanted to give her a present, so she chose a block and wrapped it up- Lizzie loved it!!!)
The cake was a scrumptious cake carrot with cream cheese frosting- not from a box!! It's a really really really good and super easy recipe from a friend that truly makes box carrot cakes taste like cardboard.
Anyhoo, these are just a few birthday ones and some from the last week or so:
One day while Caitlin was still napping, Lizzie was playing outside and I was in the kitchen. I looked out later and she had hoisted her little chair on top of the big one and was just chillin' on it, checking out the scene. It was so cute!

Lizzie is so big now! I saw her last a year ago-too long. The one of her on the chair is really cute. Your cake turned out nice! You'll have to post your recipe. I love carrot cake. Wait, I love any kind of cake.
the girls are so cute! the cake looks great too.
i need to come down soon!
I love the look on Lizzie's face in the chair - she is sooo proud.
I hope she got my package by now. I'm so pleased by girls are such great birthday cake bakers. None of this store bought stuff for my grandkids.
