Having Their Cake and Eating it, Too...

...sort of.

I couldn't believe it, but Anna Claire and Mallory would not smash those giant cupcakes no matter how hard I tried to get them to wriggle their little fingers into the frosting and the layers of the cake. Seriously. I was all ready for them to get as messy as they've ever been - covered in sticky frosting from head to toe. Oh, well.

First we sang "Happy Birthday" and helped the girls make wishes and blow out their candles.

Then, we gave them free reign to dig right in. Both girls were content to gently scoop up the frosting with their little index fingers and ever-so-daintily lick the frosting from their fingers. Don't I have sweet little girls?I think Mallory got some frosting on her bib, but that was as messy as things got.



Wait, am I complaining that the girls didn't make a huge mess by getting frosting and cake all over themselves and the kitchen? But, oh, what cute pictures that would have made!

A special thanks to our official photographers and videographers Aunt Michelle, Aunt Dot, and Uncle Brian. We love you!
