So Carrie (Eric's little sister) got married this weekend and my mom and I made the cake. We had one cake that wasn't level so it didn't get used but you see it got eaten. Clever boy. :)

This is the completed cake. Carrie was pleased so I guess we did alright. 

It was nice after the wedding was all over and we no longer had the stress of the cake we were able to just enjoy having my parents in town. Silas loved having his Grammy and Papa here and loved being constantly spoiled with sugary treats from Papa. We're excited to have them out here again in a couple months when the baby comes. :)

Bassinet Makeover

Eric had his birthday on the 2nd and we had a family dinner and this was his cake which i must say turned out pretty cool. :)
We bought this bassinet for the new baby from Walmart and after putting it together realized it's SO girly. So I decided to take a seam ripper to it and see if it couldn't be improved at all. and...

...this is what I ended up with. While it doesn't scream little boy it goes along with the Calvin and Hobbs theme we'd like to have. By the way tiger fabric is IMPOSSIBLE to find! unless you want pink and black tiger because that's all over the place. We're having to order fabric off the internet to make a matching blanket and I'm not sure how well it'll even match.
