Claire's Current Favorite Toys

When we were visiting Lincoln, NE this summer, we stopped in the cutest shop called Paper Kite.

I was overwhelmed by how I needed EVERY DAMN THING there.

Literally everything in their shop is adorable.

I had to restrain myself and I only bought one thing.

A Maileg leek.

Yes.

A stuffed leek.

#TBT: Ellie's Birthday

A look at some of Eloise's birthday cakes
(This is posted a day late so technically it is a Flashback Friday, but oh well)

This year Eloise has requested a unicorn cake for her fifth birthday.
Every year I forget how tiring it is to make a cute birthday cake from scratch. You know how people say after giving birth you get childbirth amnesia and forget the pain?
Well it is like that... but with baking.
