The sprinkles will hide any defect Edition

Yesterday we had a welcome home party for Micah. Since tomorrow is his due date, we thought it would be a perfect time to celebrate his early homecoming.

He's over 8 pounds already, even though he's on an apnea monitor. And. Those. Cheeks. They're kissable, squishable and altogether loveable. It's safe to say I'm totally in love with him.

We also decided to have the party over Labor Day because all my in-laws from Austin, Texas are in town for some Micah cuddles. They're HUGE Longhorn fans. Obviously, it's almost sacreligious to be anything else in Austin.

In honor of their devotion, my sister-in-law and brother-in-law got Micah his first Longhorn outfit.

It's a towel that looks like a longhorn. Since Micah was sleeping, his dad Chris decided to show it off.


I think Micah's going to grow up with one fun daddy. Or a playmate. I'm not sure which yet!

My sister-in-law did Micah's room in a rainforest theme. In honor of that, we ordered a cake from Happy Cakes. It was almost too cute to eat.

Almost.
We are having the family over to our house today to celebrate some birthdays. N's mom's, D's, and N's aunt Dee Dee. Because I thought I was secretly gifted in the pastry department, I decided to make one. I do have a KitchenAid mixer afterall. That should make it as easy as ordering one from Happy Cakes!

That KichenAid didn't help much. What you can't see is the crack down the middle. Like wearing a large earrings to distract from some adult acne, I'm hoping those sprinkles work wonders.

If that doesn't work, I'll have already wowed them with some delish ribs.
One can only hope!
