am I crazy?

It's 1:00am and I just pulled all of the different pieces of Taylor's birthday cake out of the oven.


I have NEVER in my life really made a cake...I think I've only made one or two regular cakes, let alone anything fancy.


But I was determined to start a tradition of making my kids' birthday cakes.


Of course, I had to go and pick something OVER THE TOP for my first try.


Right now, the cake is cooling...it is in 6 different pieces and lots of cupcakes with the left over batter.


Tomorrow it will be assembled, frosted, decorated....and in the end, we SHOULD have a PIG!


Or as Taylor will know it....it will be BABE!!
Tommorow we will celebrate our little girl's 2nd birthday...this late at night, being as completely and utterly exhausted as I am, that kind of just makes me cry. She has grown up SO much in the last few months approaching this big milestone.
Tomorrow the garage becomes the barn. Taylor will be the farmer... (here's a sneak peak)

Tomorrow we have one million things to do...but in the end, we are hoping it is one hoedown that she'll never forget!
