This year we mixed things up and had a watermelon cake instead of a sugar cake. I'm just not craving or enjoying refined sugar nearly as much as I used to. I'm sure this has helped in maintaining my pregnancy weight gain in the normal range. Watermelon, on the other hand, I just can't get enough.
Elena and Carl loading up the cake with candles.
Just a little taste. Doesn't everyone need a taste after the candles are in place?
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."
Candle blowout!
Please pay no attention to my sewing machine set up on the table, I'm in mid-project. And forgive the messy looking living room. It's hard to tell but those are games on the coffee table and art supplies across the rest of the table. And a bag quasi-packed on the chair, ready to go just in case. No chances on this baby--hospital scrubs are no fun to lounge in.
So fuuny Elena is licking her finger like she got frosting on it. You might want to put your bag in the car just in case your water breaks at work or when you are out and about.
ReplyDeleteI know Mom, Elena is funny. The bag comes and goes with me most of the time. Either way, Carl will need to come home to pick up Cooper. If by chance the bag is at home, he can just grab it.
