little bakers


I was organizing pictures on my computer when I realized I never posted any pictures from the girls' 1 year old baking shoot I did with them- and obviously the blog needed this cuteness, so here you go.
I'd been dreaming up combining my two favorite things ever since the girls were born. (my babies and my baking)

Set up:

I decided I would use these pics for their invites. It wasn't anything fancy, but I think the picture kinda speaks for itself and makes up for lack of graphic design skills.

I did it in place of a pre-party cake smash--it was a baby cake batter party!
 I made them some little aprons for the occasion.
 and I was planning to make fabric chef's hats, but since they were baking I wanted them to look like pastry chef hats, not just regular mushroom style chef hats.  I know that's ridiculous and no one would ever notice, so now I kinda wish I'd gone the other route they might have stayed on better...oh well, we'll live.
I was so pleased to see how quickly they accepted chocolate as a favorite food, my offspring.


 Help yourself.
 Pure adorableness, in raw form.
 Is there anything better than baking babies?

little June baker
 She likes her chocolate.

little Lyla baker
 Even after their bath I still found chocolate in Lyla's ear.
 We all had such fun!
the end.

one year old!

Yesterday was the girl's first birthday! To make the day special we started with some breakfast pancakes:
Daddy let them play in the toilet while I wasn't looking, for a birthday present.  I have 3 children.
We took some birthday pictures:
 Yup, they're adorable.
 I borrowed this bench, but they love it- I'll have to find a similar one. :)
 Birthday girl Juney
 Who's the birthday girl? "me!"
 Pretty girl.
 I didn't force them into the birthday photo shoot, they liked the bench... When they crawled to their favorite toy in the house (the tub), I went with it. They had a little bathroom break.
Birthday girl Lyla!
 "I'm a big girl now."
 Pretty girl.
They weren't all perfect and happy the entire time, in case you were wondering...
 It's my birthday and I'll cry if I want to...

Sad and funny. They will laugh at these pictures one day though...
Then we had lunch with Grandma Barbara, Aunt Julie, and their cousins Claire & Autumn. Daddy came home from work early so that we could have a little celebration with just the four of us.
First we gave them their present from us, which I've been excited to give them since they were born. :)
A kitchenette!
Now they have somewhere fun and safe to play in the kitchen while I'm cooking in there.
Then we sang happy birthday and gave them cupcakes! But not chocolate, I'm saving that for their real party on Saturday. :)
Fire is dangerous, that part was quick.
Then the fun began.
Lyla's frosting was gone in about 15 seconds.


June was slowly but surely working on it.



Then Lyla's cake was gone. She went over for sisters.
 June didn't like that.
We made them share.
Happy Birthday Lyla!
 Happy Birthday June!

Then they played some more with their cute little kitchen before bed...

Happy birthday beautiful girls!
