Without Sean's talented cousin and mother around, my cake making skills were tested. There might have been a boxed cake mix involved, but at least the frosting was homemade. Nothing too technical for you can tell the frosting was left basic white on purpose. An easy L cut from Twizzlers and a single candle rounded out the decor.
Please note that the stinker already swiped a sample as I leaned in close for a picture. This kid is no dummy and he knew exactly what I was holding.
This is the face of sudden shock as he realizes I have fed him pure sugar.
Carpe Diem!
Gavin could not wait to have a piece of the big cake. Really, he kept asking all day.
This boy knew exactly how to devour the cake. In fact, I had to pull it away after only a few minutes since he would put fistfuls of cake into his mouth at a time. Please do not feel sorry for Logan since he had plenty to last him until next year's birthday.
In comparing how Gavin and Logan ate their birthday cake, I realized I have raised two different eaters. It is most likely the result of the first and second child, but still interesting to note. Gavin poked at his cake and hardly knew to make a mess until I shoved his hand into the cake. In fact, he was probably waiting for someone to feed a piece of cake to him. And to this day, we have to help him finish his last couple bites of dinner by feeding him. Meanwhile, independent Logan has been feeding himself for almost five months now and knew exactly what to do with food when placed in front of him. He has consumed half the plate by the time you take your place at the table. Logan is all business when it comes to food, meanwhile Gavin is a lazy eater who likes to graze throughout the day just like his dad.

He is adorable! I love that he was putting fistfuls into his mouth. Awesome! It is funny how 2 kids can be such different eaters.
