PORTER is ONE!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!


His new truck! Which he LOVES!!! HE can get on it and off it all by himself! He amazes me every day!
His cake with play dough. He loves play dough and eats everything, so I thought why not! J/K, it is colored fondant, pretty cool huh. The kids really though it was dough, it was funny.
The "FROSTED cake." -So, here is the story. It is a doubled layered cake. (Well I am not the best cook. ) So, the cake sank in the middle really bad. SOOOO, I compensated with frosting. Not just a little frosting, but lets say and inch or two of frosting. Hey, it's all about the looks right?
Barry said,
"I never thought there could be too much butter cream frosting in a cake, but I was wrong."
Now, this is a little scary. If you look closely porter has a pack of q-tips in his hands. His lovely Aunt Jen bought these for his birthday. As soon as he saw them he put them right to his mouth. Come on Jen, we are really trying to help him, not encourage. :)


Porter Potty turned one yesterday! It was a fun day. It was fun having his cousins, aunts, uncles, Grandmas and Grandpas there!!! He is such a big boy! We love him sooo much! We love him, q-tips and all!!!

  12. I think my favorite part of the birthday celebration is the glazed look in Porter's adorable little eyes as he is about to slip into a sugar coma from all the FROSTING!! Love it!! So fun.
