Happy Birthday to Kate (and Me)!!

Happy Birthday to me thanks to Maya and her friend Ava Gray! Maya insisted that she "help" me make my birthday cake, I'm not sure she knows that you are not really supposed to have to make your own birthday cake, but I have to admit, this was kind of fun! So after school, Maya and Ava Gray ran in the house ready to bake! Maya was so sweet all day, she kept coming up to me and giving me a big hug and telling me, "Happy Birthday, Mommy, I love you!"
So the cake design was all their ideas, down to the colors and the even helped me spell "Happy Birthday", such smart girls! They even got to decorate their own cake!!
They took turns stirring
Couldn't get this one to turn
Decorating their own cake
So proud of their finished product
        
     Had to have a candle to blow out before they could eat it        

We got to celebrate Kate's 1st Birthday two days later and Maya was super excited to go to a birthday party!                                                                                      
Maya and the birthday girl!
Yum Yum!
Everyone wants in on the action!
