Jerrick's 6th birthday! He was excited about his new Wii game - Super Smash Brothers Brawl. (Try saying that three times fast!) He had a great birthday with chocolate cake and chocolate ice cream. Grandma and Grandpa Cressall came out on Monday night and Grandma and Grandpa Carter came out on Tuesday night. He loved every minute of it. It's hard to believe that my premie baby has grown so fast. His birth is probably the one that I'll remember every single detail - and every birthday I am still amazed how things worked out (with a lot of help from above).
This is Jaxon's fancy injury that he received last night at his baseball game. Well, the injury happened before the game, while they were warming up. Jaxon was turned sideways talking to his coach when the pitcher threw the ball. That probably sounds more blatant on the pitchers part than it actually was. It bled, and bled and bled some more. Jared and I were over at Jerrick and Ryker's t-ball game, so we missed most the blood. The joke was when we got over to the little league field that the team was trying to beat Jaxon up. I told them that we have that covered at home - plenty of brothers! It's still quite swollen today and very sore - but luckily mouths heal fast (and mostly without stitches)!!!
Here is my grand cake for the Boy Scout cake auction tomorrow night. I found this awesome idea from familyfun.com! We had a great time making it - although now that it's made, everyone is trying to touch it. I'm planning on taking it to the church so little hands don't bother it tomorrow when I'm not around to patrol it's safety! I made buttercream frosting for the first time, and after putting all the ingredients together - I now know why cake is 12 weight watchers point for a 3x3 piece. WOW! Killer shortening content! But it sure tastes good! Hopefully it will bring in big cash for the scouts.

Awesome cake! You rock! So, I think this might mean that you want a piece of the cake decorating company that the "sisters" are dreaming about? :)
The fun just keeps on going at your house. Sometimes I'm glad it's over for me and then sometimes I really miss it. Your cake is great. How much did it bring in? I think about Gunnar when he was born too and how little he was. Seems like yesterday. He has a special mission on earth.
