Jensen's 1st Birthday

This was Jensen's Birthday cake. It was really fun to make. He had a little truck that he loves playing with so that was the inspiration for the cake. As you can tell by the following pictures, he loved it!
On both of Lennix's birthday's he would not touch his cake. That is not the case with Jensen. We decided to place him on top of the table and let him go to town. It was apparent that he was enjoying ever bit and we are in trouble because he has a major sweet tooth.
Our family at the party. I think Lennix is wondering why he didn't take advantage of his birthday cake at his party. July will come so soon!
This truck was Jensen's favorite present. Oh wait, it was his only present that night!! Good thing we chose wisely. He still loves playing with it and he takes it to the park to play with it in the dirt. I love the cute faces kids make when they concentrate.
During the next week, Jnsen received many fun Birthday pakages from Aunt's and Uncle's and Grandparents. He felt very loved. Thank you everyone!!
As Jensen was opening all of his presents I'm sure Lennix didn't understand why there was not one for him. Well, leave it up to my mom to think of everything and there was a little present for him. Lennix loves this little trucks and we find them in the oddest places in our apartment. A side note about Lennix . . . if you didn't notice, Lennix has lined up his trucks perfectly. This is totally his personality. Not all the time, but most of the time he is very precise about where he places his toys and is very meticulous. He even comes home, takes off his shoes and socks and puts one sock into each of his shoes and then puts them in his shoe drawer. I know what your thinking . . . I wish he was this clean and meticulous about everything of his!

How cute! I love the cake--you are amazing. And I think it's great that Lennix is so meticulous. That's the word you should've used at the recipe thing tonight, Meticulous Mel instead of Malicious Melani--what? ;) Okay, so I had to show the little sidebar to Blake and we had a great laugh--those 1960s, 70s, and most definitely the 80s pics are hilarious!
