Let the tot decorate

Now, If you want a professional looking cake disregard the title. However, I promise you that letting your "helpful" toddler decorate a cake is a lot more fun. It may not turn out exactly beautiful but it sure will be more fun in the process.

The Giants mom is coming to stay with us this week. She'll be flying in tonight. Today also happens to be her 60th birthday. So Cheyanne and I thought we make it extra special and make her a homemade cake. And of course by homemade I mean Betty Crocker. After I got done writing happy birthday grandma on the cake I let Cheyanne help with the sprinkles. Note to self- write the words after sprinkles. Double note to self- be prepared for the next 20 minutes after done decorating to hear Cheyanne plead "Want cake!" Want cake mom!" Good thing I bagged the shavings of the cake instead of throwing it away just for this occasion.

So, Whether she can read it or not, I hope Grandma likes her cake. I know Cheyanne is going to!

Happy birthday grandma! We'll see you soon.
