Easter, Birthday, and goodies!

Easter, already???
The older I get the faster things sneak up on me. My baby girl will be 4 shortly, Easter Sunday, and then my youngest will be 2 just after that! Don't get me wrong, I love them growing up and them being able to do more fun stuff, but holy cow it happens so fast.

Marni's Organized Mess's
Sleeping Beauty Cake
So, Easter is in 2 weeks, and I have a ton of goodies and crafts to do with  my kids :) I am super excited to get them started and share them with you. I have found some cute Peeps recipes over the last week and can not wait to try them out, and share them :) We will also be doing egg coloring and the egg hunt on Easter, this will be the first one for my youngest that he will be able to find eggs! Along with all the holiday items, I will be making my daughters birthday cake, which will, hopefully, be a "Barbie Doll Dress Cake". One of my favorite blogs, Marni's Organized Mess, has a great step-by-step recipe for a Princess one, and it has strawberries and my daughter LOVES strawberries :)This is the pic of her's, I will post mine after I attempt it :) She isn't getting the roller skating party that I originally wanted, but a pizza party at home with our family and friends will be awesome if I can actually pull off this cake :) She is getting the new movie "Tangled", she got to see it in the theater and fell in love, and so did I. I'm thinking about getting the Rapunzel doll to go in her cake. This age is great because she may ask for certain things, but whatever we end up getting her, produces the response "exactly what I wanted". My oldest will be 7 in December and I fear he will not be so easily pleased :) 



Now, my youngest's bday is the first week of May, and he is completely into trains now, so I might attempt a train cake :) Let me know if you have one or know of one that is super cute and super easy.

My middle child (boy) will be 2 in June and he also LOVES trains. It happened so fast. One minute he was into Dora and Diego along with his big sister, and the next thing I knew he was obsessed with Thomas and Chuggington! :0) You're right, everything happens so fast with the little ones.
I love the doll cake--too bad my daughter hates dolls. :0( I have a second chance though as I just had a baby girl. Maybe she'll be girlie like me. A mother can hope...
Good luck with all your Easter crafts!

What an awesome sleeping beauty cake. Time creeps up on me too. Except when you want it to pass by faster, then somehow its slow.
