it was meant to be...

we needed to do some sort of celebration on madelyn's actual birthday, so we were thinking that we would buy a pretty cupcake somewhere so that matt and i wouldn't have a lot of cake to eat (we just finished off the last cake). as we were perusing our options in the bakery - butterfly cake, 4th of july mini-cupcakes, etc. - we found it! the madelyn cake! i don't know if you can see the sign next to the cake, but it reads "5" Madelyn Yellow Cake". obviously we had found the cake for our celebration - it was meant to be! not to mention that it was cute with polka dots...
no video this time, but here is madelyn with birthday cake #2. she definitely knew what was coming this time.

hopefully madelyn doesn't start to think that cake is now a weekly event. love.

I guess wonderful stories such as these evoke all sorts of memories from us oldsters. When you were hoping Maddie wouldn't think the cake thing a weekly event, made me recall the first real time we took Bekah Trick or Treating when she was two. When it was all said and done and a giant bag of candy was well in hand, we asked her if she enjoyed it. She said, "YES!" Then she paused and thought about it for a moment and added, "Can we go AGAIN tomorrow night?"
Love, (and Happy Birthday) Aunt Blake
