Let them eat cake...

As we've mentioned before, June is McKenna's birthday month, and it looks like we'll be celebrating the whole month long! We had McK's b-day party with her little friends this past Sunday evening...pictures and stories to come. We ended up saving her little birthday cake for when it was just us 3, so we could take our time and enjoy the MESS! :o)


McKenna started off slowly, looking to Mommy to make sure it was OK if she touched the cake. After permission was granted, she very gently touched the icing with her index finger letting it sink down into the sugary goodness! It didn't take long for the fun to begin. She really enjoyed submerging her hands into the cake...not necessarily eating any of it. She did attempt to eat some several times, but always made a face like she had sucked on a lemon...I'm thinking it was just too sweet for her (as if there really is such a thing). I think she will enjoy finger painting when that time comes b/c that's the vibe we were getting!

The mess was up to her elbows! Her daddy wasn't sure she was really understanding the concept, so he decided to give her a demonstration....lead by example right???


Then things got a little crazy...cake ended up on her forehead which led to her hair and it was all down hill from there!


The final products: McKenna and the cake!


Off to the tub! Doesn't she have this glazed over, full of sugar look!!!
