Hello, Long lost friend

Has it really been like 6 months since my last post? That's about to change! A new post will be up shortly about what we've been up to!

Not Me Monday

I love participating in "Not Me Monday". It's awesome. Let me begin...

I did not enjoy the bouncy house ordered for Landen's second birthday party more than he did.

I did not feed my kid cake for breakfast 3 times in the last week.

I did not stay up until midnight on Pinterest. Definitely not.

I also didn't cry on Landen's birthday. Or the day of his party. All day. Of course not. It's ridiculous.

I am not on blogger right now while all kids are napping instead of doing the dishes. I am the perfect housewife. Duh.

I am not going to get off of her and pick up my kindle instead of doing laundry.

My Very First Fondant Cake

This weekend was my little sisters high school graduation and open house. My Mom asked me what I'd like to make for it so I automatically said cake. Hey, it looks super easy on youtube!!

IT'S NOT!

I had never messed with fondant before and I don't really like the taste of regular so I made marshmallow. I went through about 5 bad batches before I got a few good ones!

I have also never piped anything on a cake. But, I don't think I did too bad for my first time.

Her party theme was tye-dye so I made the inside of the cake all different colors. I made whipped butter cream frosting for the first time. But, I found it on Pioneer Woman's blog. We all know she can't go wrong. You can get the recipe here. It is super tasty, super easy, and super cheap!

                                               I definitely need to work on my piping...
                                             

And I  need to learn how to clean up while I work

My husband almost fainted when he saw this...

But I didn't think it was too shabby! 

It tasted pretty decent too. I would just like to say though, just because they make it look easy on Cake Boss, doesn't mean it is!! And it is highly stressful and time consuming. Make a practice on first!!!

8 Weeks Old

I can't believe my little princess is 8 weeks old.
It has flown by.
She is smiling and cooing all the time.
She eats about every 3 hours.
She loves to be bounced in her bouncy seat.
She usually only wakes up around 4 am every night.
She is over 12 pounds.
She wears 3 months clothes and a size 2 diaper.
She is a mommy's girl and is very spoiled.

I often wonder what Landen and I did all day before she was around.
She really is a joy.
