Celebrate!

Today is my husband's Birthday! And being an adult does not mean he gets anything less than what the kids would on their special day! I love doing extra special things to make that awesome! 

I had a few things lined up and all turned out well.I requested half the night off so I could actually sit and eat with him. The menu included : Spaghetti, salad and garlic bread. And no B-day is complete without some kind of sweet treat! 

I decided to do something other than cake. I had seen this cupcake place some time ago called Cupcake Craving and thought we would give it a try. I ordered Brownie Delight ( just came out yesterday, and chocolate fix. They did not disappoint, absolutely delicious! I almost passed out when I walked into the place it smelled so good! I can't even describe it. Who knew gourmet cupcakes could smell better than Betty Crocker! We will be returning to try the #1 seller, red Velvet Rescue, among many others I am sure.


While today was Daddy's special day, Luke seemed to be the center of attention during treat time. Luke's first B-day did not go so well with the introduction of a yummy hunk of B-day cake for him to dive into. So, today I thought I would allow him to have a mini experience. I gave him half of a cupcake on his tray. By his reaction you would think I plopped a gooey icky worm down. He puckered his little birdy lips and began "chirping" at it with curiosity. After touching and poking  the cupcake several times to figure out what it's ( pulling his hand back with hesitation ) he finally managed to pick up a chunk, it was at that moment he seemed to finally realize what it was and I guess you can say the rest is history. Luckily I got some awesome shots of him devouring it.

Look at that smile! It was well worth the mess!

This is serious business!

I love how he has his feet, they were like that the whole time!

Very cute. We've gone to Cupcake Cravings before too.. Great stuff. The babies had cupcakes from there for their 2nd birthday.

I kept thinking you were gonna get in touch with us for Bianca to come babysit for Steven's b day.

Glad to hear you guys are all well again.
