One convivial cupcake celebration wasn't enough for this family. It was just too sweet of a theme (not to mention that I had all the gear) to not use for a similar but seriously scaled down (poor second child) family gathering in celebration of the baby's first birthday.
I made the cupcake cakes myself this go-round! I used the Wilton Large Cupcake Pan for the large cake and an over-sized muffin tin for the small cupcake.
I also made the cookies using the cupcake cookie cutter from the PCP's first birthday favor bag and a random "W" I had in my drawer. I absolutely adore making iced cookies but it is so extraordinarily time consuming that I don't do it often. And now that I've written that "I adore making the cookies," I realize that what I truly adore is eating the cookies.
The baby's party was the first time I made my decorated marshmallow pies. I can't count how many times I've done them since! Simply unwrap the pies, slide in a sucker stick, decorate and then package in a cello bag.
Nothing, I mean nothing beats a glass bottled Coke on ice.
I made the hat and he wore the same Bailey Boys bib brother wore three years prior.
Cookie ate his entire cake. With a FORK. It was like nothing I've ever seen.
If you are wondering who the random mountain man is, why, that's just Honey in the midst of his bizarre beard growing annual event.
Celebrating the baby boy...
And that sweet little family celebration was how we marked one year with one of our miracles.
