B#5 turns 3!

Blessing #5 is three years old today! The little guy is all about his "Teddy." His Muggins and I found Teddy at TJ Maxx when he was itty bitty, and he has been totally attached to it from the beginning.

That said, it wasn't too surprising when he asked for a bear cake. This moma aims to please (when it comes to birthday cakes, at least!), so yesterday afternoon I baked the cake, and last night, after the kids went to bed, I put it together.

A doubled cake recipe baked in...
2 pyrex bowls
+2 coffee mugs
+1 small casserole dish
+4 cupcakes
---
=1 teddy cake... and lots of dirty dishes!:)

But the result was worth it. He was very excited to come downstairs this morning and see his Teddy in the form of chocolate fudge cake and caramel frosting.

More pictures of the birthday celebratin' are sure to follow...
I just need to find where I put my camera last night after I took the pictures of the cake!
