Happy Birthday Aayla!

Love this girl....
....and now she's 2!!!

We started her day by opening presents.  She got a mermaid Mrs. Potato Head from Grandma Webb.  We gave her a pooh bear potty chair, Lalaloopsy soft doll, pooh bear toothbrush, and little pooh bear books.  She loved them all!!


The rest of the day she played with all her new things and napped while I made her cake.  She wanted a Pooh Bear cake.  I'm super happy with how it turned out.  I'm surprised too because this was the worse batch of fondant I've made and up until right before my family came over I didn't have a Pooh Bear to put on top.  It all got worked out though and here is the finished cake.


That night my family came over and she got even more presents.  She got a baby stroller and pretend baby food from my parents, a Tinkerbell backpack from Katie, and a big full shirt bib from Abbie.  She thinks Aayla's messy or something.  


We dug into her cute cake afterward.  I always feel bad cutting into cakes I spend all day making, oh well.  It was cherry chip cake with vanilla buttercream frosting and was super yummy!  I never make cherry cake and so forget that I like it.  I think Aayla had a good birthday.  She is such a sweet, fun little girl and we love her so much.
