Yesterday, I went to clean up the rest of the caking-making supplies and I realized there was no reason why I couldn't try to make his cake again. I still had the icing in the bags and the animals and his name. What's to stop me?
So that's exactly what I did.
I finished it this afternoon and I love it <3. I didn't have enough frosting to get it as smooth as I'd like, but that's okay.
I also had my mom take photos of the watermelons my dad made (thankfully, they still had them!) and I redid the decorations on the window.
I was sad I didn't have photos, so I fixed it. His first birthday only comes once and I really want to have good things to remember it, so it was worth all the extra work. Now, I'm satisfied.

It's been good to have something productive to focus on, so I don't get too crazy about the fact that his birthday is in five days. Heaven sakes, how on earth did we get here?
I am missing him a lot today <3
Oh RaeAnne, I'm so glad you did that and were able to get pictures! The cake was FABULOUS and now your pictures have the cute wooden Samuel name sign! :)
