I've been staying busy with my cake business. The orders are coming in and it's been great. I did my first bridal shower cake, the three tiered cake and that was a lot of fun. Now that I'm getting more experienced, I'm much faster with my decorating which is good. I'm also doing a lot of birthday cakes, which happen to be the other ones but I have a few specialty cakes on order too like a ladybug cake for a little girls first birthday.

I have a couple wedding cakes on order too. One is in May and the other one is in September. So Those will be my first major orders I think. Whoa! How much fun is this!





Sean had his first wrestling tournament this weekend! He did really well for his first time. He's really enjoying it also. He practices a couple times each week and now we're in matches.

But his first match this weekend, the boy no showed so Sean won by forfeit. But the other three matches, he ended pinning two of his opponents and then beating the final boy in the last match because he out wrestled him and got more points! It was so fun to watch. The coaches were really pleased to and said a lot of positive things about his abilities, balance, all stuff I'll have to learn as I go. :)

The kids and I got an opportunity to go to the Nutcracker! It was so beautiful and I was surprised at how much even Sean enjoyed it. Asia remembered all the music and was in a state of awe all throughout the production. We dressed up and made a really fancy night of it. Our neighbors had girls in the ballet and gave us tickets! Such a treat!

Scott begged and begged to go with us but had a pressing engagement with a ballgame on T.V and had to reluntantly decline the invitation. :) And the cute girl holding Asia was the prima ballerina. Asia was so embarrassed. :)

Asia has been so much fun to be with at home. She bakes with me and she has her own rolling pin. I found it at the Ikea! So cute. It fits her little hands perfectly. She loves rolling out the dough and cutting out cookies. I think I have a baker in the making.

Also she helps me out with Cristina the baby I watch. But she and I do a lot of just mommy and daughter stuff too like playing memory and dress up. We sing all day and go for walks. Her favorite activity though happens to be the tea parties we have. And we do that twice each month with my friends and their daughters. So much fun. Every once in a while we'll do them at home with her little tea sets. The only problem there is that you can only get about two sips of tea out of those tiny cups!



Sean is wrestling now! One season is complete and we jump right into another one. He had his first wrestling match the other day. It was so cute because he was so nervous before his match. And when he was wrestling, he and his opponent smiled at eachother the whole time. :) He did really well and almost pinned the other kid.



It's been a while since I updated. :( I've been so busy with my new baking business! It's been great filling orders. I've been baking mostly cakes and specialty cakes but have gotten a few cookie orders too. The most popular have been the Russian Tea Cakes or Wedding Cookies. They happen to be my favorite cookie too. Yum. Now that I'm writing about it, I'm craving cake. I think I'll bake one today. Maybe a whip cream cake?
