More cakes

A couple of weeks ago I did two cakes. One was a Mario themed cake and the other was The Little Mermaid. The Little Mermaid had no Ariel or Flounder on it but it had the cutest octopus(of course with a bow) and the cake was made to look like it was under water.

I'm sorry the pictures are horrible.

The back of the cake. I was so happy with the way this cake came out. Especially since I did both on the same day and the Mario cake didn't quite come out the way I wanted it to.

Since the Mario cake didn't come out all that nice I will only show the top.

In my defense my mother rushed me because she had to leave and needed the cake.
My cheerleaders. They were so tired!! We had a long day.
This was my baby when we got home. She was all pooped out!

Early

Its 8:50am. I am almost never up this early, unless I have something to do. And today I do!! Isla is at her aunts house and my friend Elizabeth is coming over. Her sons birthday party is tomorrow and I have the pleasure of decorating his cake. The cake is a 3 tiered Dominican cake with a fruity filling covered in color full fondant. The theme of the party is Diego so there will be lots of animal print.

I learned how to make my own fondant on YouTube. You can learn wonders on google. :) Ive done a few cakes some for friends and also my baby shower cake(I did everything for my baby shower, I'm way to picky!!).

Before I did my baby shower cake I did a practice cakes.

And this is the cake I did for the baby shower. Its hard to tell but the smaller cake is pink with green stripes, the medium one is green with pink stripes and the big one is white with black stripes.


I also did a ladybug cake for my Isla aunt.

So if anyone needs a cake and lives in or near New York call me!! ;)

P.S. Still cant believe that M.J died. R.I.P

Baby wearing stash

Its time to show off your stash!! That is your baby wearing stash!! Stephanie over at http://www.adventuresinbabywearing.com/ started it and I decided to play along.
My "stash" is quiet small. I only have 3 carriers but use 2.
I have a Maya wrap. I used it allot when she was smaller. She liked the cradle position now she refuses to be like that unless shes breastfeeding.

Now I mainly use my Ergo. Before it made my back hurt but then some people told me to wear it further down on my hips and I swear I can wear her all day!

I won a Meeup from another blog I stalk read all the time http://4littlemen.blogspot.com/. It has a beautiful flower print. I don't have any pictures of it yet.

I think this picture is hilarious. When I was 38 weeks pregnant with Isla I tried to make a Moby wrap. Didn't go to well!! lol I put my niece Kaylin in it but have yet to put Isla and probably never will.

Headbands, a leak, and mothers day

I'm the type of person that if I want something I'm going to get it. And if it cost to much, Ill just make my own. :) Some people on Etsy sell the most adorable headbands. I noticed how easy it looked to make them, so I bought a mess of flowers from a seller and made them. I spent $5 to make a headband that cost $18. Ive made one for just about every outfit she has!

In other news...This is what we woke up to at 4am.

There was a leak. May I mention that our bed is under the light. AHHHH to live in New York City!!!

Oh my gummy bear. The reason I now celebrate this holiday. My very first mothers day! I still cant believe it!

Our family on mothers day. This is the only picture I have of all 3 of us this day, that is why Isla is crying, and my camera strap is in the way.

And just because it was mother day, a picture of my mom, Isla, Kaylin, and I. Can you see the resemblance between my mom and I.

I hope all mothers enjoyed their mothers day!
