Well it is hard to believe but my little girl is going to be 5 years old tomorrow. I think time goes by much more quickly when you have kids. I barely remember what she was like as a baby. She now truly fits her name: Chloe: "vibrant one full of life".
Since I made a special cake for Caleb for his birthday I decided to do one for Chloe too. I decided on a Care Bear, and she got to choose which one of the pink or purple ones for me to do. She chose Love A Lot Bear. We even put pink dye in the cake mix to make it a pink/vanilla cake.
Now off to work on the cupcakes for her other party tomorrow. I love frosting so this really is no sacrifice for me :- )
So a little update on the cake. I put the cake in the oven to keep it from little hands, forgot it was in there and turned the oven on. 5 min later when it chimed it was ready I opened the oven door to see the soupy mess of frosting all over the pan and none on the cake!! Well after tasting it and finding out it tasted just fine, Chloe and I headed to the store for more icing. This time we decided on a purple CareBear- Share Bear. I think it turned out pretty good. And Chloe loves it--which is all that matters since it is her birthday.
