Baby Cakes

One of my favorite (shhh!) co-workers is very pregnant, as in due in 6 weeks.  I know, I know pregnant is pregnant regardless of how far along but come on now anyone who has been pregnant knows that at 34 weeks you are VERY pregnant!  Anywho, we had a work baby shower for her last Friday.  A few of us pitched in to provide food & organize.  I made these little gems.





Yep baby cupcakes (Baby Harker Cakes)!  Would have been slightly easier had I owned a piping bag for the chocolate faces and hair but I made do with my Ziploc baggie with the corner cut off.  
Duncan Hines Confetti cake of course, theres only so much I can do as a working momma and homemade cupcakes on a week night just weren't in the cards!
I do wish I could figure out how to make my frosting prettier....but then again this was a get it done quick thing while Addison was napping!

And speak of the devil, we have Ol' Messy Face seen here with peas and her new snorty face:

Snow Day For Everyone

Last nights snow storm didn't bring nearly as much snow as anticipated, although the winds were up to par. I thought the siding was going to be ripped off of our old farm house! We still got a good bunch of snow though, and the drifts with all this wind are impressive to say the least. I was happy to not have to wake up earlier than my normal 4am to get my butt ready for the slip slide to work.

I let the dogs out when I finally un-cocooned from my bed, my smaller dog Bandit sunk in snow! We figured we could all get bundled up and enjoy it a little so thats just what we did...enjoy it very little! :) It was cold and it was windy. We just wanted to get a few shots of snow deeper than Addison is tall in case it never happens again. While we do get a lot of snow here in Michigan, we don't get a lot of snow this deep usually!  The drift we used was 32 inches deep, thats almost 3 feet people!
