My lil boy is turning into a big one.

He'll be turning 4 this wednesday, so we celebrated over the weekend so his grandparents could come! He'll have a second party at school on his actual day.

So sad to see them grow up so fast. Our favorite part is he's starting to become a parrot and tell on us whenever he can. Oh the joys of having a little follower around the house. He keeps asking if he's still 4 every morning as if he'll go back to 3 after the celebrating is done.


His birthday was almost a disaster since I had hired someone to make his cake several months ago to save me time but as it got closer she never replied to my emails, so I couldn't trust that she was serious about doing it, so at the last minute... I had my neighbor across the street [who also makes cakes] print on her printer just for food an edible picture topper last week. Then [with her recipes] I baked my first cake with fondant icing!!! A lot easier than I thought but with me ...everything takes forever to do. I'm a dummy when it comes to these things!!! I think it turned out great!!!

My boy showing off his guitar skills with his main gift. ...daddy said all boys need a guitar to get the ladies (and I think he must be living his life through our boy since my husband never learned to play himself) :lol:

His little brother getting in trouble because as I was trying to decorate, he tore down all the balloon and hid them in his own room before the party. :lol:

...and then a walk down memory lane. His first bday. *sigh*

:lol: :lol: I'm sure glad he learned how to use his hands to eat! Green icing sure looks like green snot, not very appealing. Hard to win the girls that way.

:lol: :lol: Funny about the balloons!! That's a baby brother for you.

The cake looks GREAT, but then I'd expect nothing less from you.

Happy B-Day not so little J.
That cake looks fabulous! :D

Crazy little brother..... 8)

A big 4 year old already - wow :D
Wow.. 4.. already. He sure looks like he is having a blast with that guitar and his birthday cake looks fantastic. Now about that little brother.......
JO...that cake is amazing!!! You did a great job!!!! I love the balloon hiding :D :D :D :D :D ..

I can't believe he is 4 already!!!!!!
I love the cake....what a great job and the plate to go with it.
I can't believe your little boy is already 4...the years go by to fast.

I hope he has the best Birthday! I loved him playing his guitar.
Happy Birthday to your little big boy! :bdcake: Enjoy the moment. They do grow up sooo fast. Look at my three boys, it's been a blink of the eye and they have all grown up. I was a stayat home mom for 18 years!! I spent everyday and night with them yet I really don't know where all that time has gone!
I love how that's your 'just thrown together last minute cake' lol. It's gorgeous. Did the original cake lady ever call you back?

I can't believe he's 4! Time really does fly by.

Happy birthday lil J!

Happy birthday lil J!


lol, well it wasn't exactly like that. Just printing off the picture took several days for it to dry. The cake was made 2 days before and then frozen and the fondant the day before. NOT a thrown together last minute cake at all ...just not on my agenda.

I thought things were clear with the cake lady that originally gave me a yes then replied I just needed to give her the flavor. When I wrote back and didn't hear anything... I replied back a week later asking if I had to pay in advance. Then replied a week after that asking if she got my flavors and I was just making sure things were all set in stone so I didn't have to worry about it. I DID get an email back but she didn't answer my question but did tell me she's terrible over email. When it got closer, I just couldn't handle the stress of not knowing whether it would be done or not (she's out of her home, not a store). ..........so that's when I decided to make the cake myself! Long story ...sorry.
Wow, 4 already!

He's adorable, such a handsome lil man :)
Happy Birthday Lil J :bdcake: :bdcake: :bdcake: :bdcake:
I love his birthday hat with the paw prints.
OMG - he's FOUR already?? 8O I still remember when you were married!!

Hold on to them tight - they grow WAY too fast! My "baby" is almost 28! :roll: :o
Happy 4th Birthday Little J!!!!! You've grown into a very handsome boy :kiss:
It really does go fast as you are already realizing. He is so cute.
He looks like Peter Pan is his guitar picture.
The cake turned out great. Bravo!! They are growing up so fast. :sidestep:
Wow. Where does the time go??

That's too funny about Joshee hiding the balloons. :yay: He is such a cute little fellow.

Happy Birthday Lil J!! :bdcake: :bdcake: :bdcake: :bdcake:
