Cake, Elmo, and Laptop

Goodbye my friend...I mean laptop!

So, we've been very busy spring cleaning or "nesting" as Travis would say. We turned the office into a nursery. Nearly 4 bags of garbage and a trunk full of goodwill donations we are pretty close to having our house back to normal. Its amazing how much we've collected in 4 short years. Unfortunately during this time of cleaning we came across my laptop from college. This computer was like my best friend during my college years. It broke my 2nd year of my masters program and hasn't worked since. However, I couldn't bare the thought of getting rid of it. Well I'm sad to say that its going to be destroyed and thrown away. I am so sad, its like a part of me will be missing :) But, I can't keep everything. Especially if its broken. It served me well! RIP laptop!

ELMO our newest addition!

Sophie doesn't really care much about dolls but she sure loves her ELMO's. I'll tell her to take her baby for a walk in her stroller and she'll run and throw the baby out to make room for ELMO. She loves to put diapers on ELMO, rock Elmo to sleep and feed him food. I was kind of sad at first when she fell in love with ELMO, I wanted her to at least like the Pink Sesame Street character, Abby Cadabie, but nope she LOVES Elmo. I have grown to love the little character myself, only because I see how much joy he brings to Sophie. Isn't she such a great mommy to ELMO?

FUN TOOTH CAKE

This is a picture of my latest cake frenzy. I had so much fun making this cake. It was a lot of work but in the end I thought it turned out pretty cute. This MOLAR cake was half white cake and half swiss chocolate cake. The whole cake was 'star tipped' which took forever. Thanks to my sweet husband he helped me finish the cake by 2 am. This was a special ordered cake, so I hope it tasted okay! :)
