did you ever feel like your birthday got overlooked?






well this kid did! his dad graduated the day before his 6th birthday, and we partied on the actual day of. so he got shafted, and i knew it.
Well last week when we did Hope's 3rd birthday and Paxton remembered the lack of celebration that was centered on him. so being the nice mom that I am, I told him he could have a bonus cake on the 16th this month to celebrate his birthday. only 7 months late.
We celebrated by baking a cake, he was privileged to help but opted out. leaving me to bake it but he did come back to lick the beaters. and then he got to decorate it. and we even did candles.
and the writing ? that was me, winner that i am, planned on just P-a-x but then on a whim decided to throw in the- t-o-n ! Lance mocked . and can I say he is a jerk? since i was piping that crap on in a plastic baggie with the corner cut off. and it was all white frosting and i added food coloring to it to get the fabulous colors you see here.
and see the evil grin on Joy's face?
she blew out the candles and we had to re- light!
so Happy Bonus Birthday kid! Hope you enjoyed it! it's probably the only one you're gonna get!

You rock! I would make my kid just wait it out! Joy cracks me up! Your kids are so funny. LOVE the cake, I hate writing anything in icing, it sucks, or I suck at it, both probably! It looks great!
