We held Emma's birthday party a week before her actual birthday, so I made her this heart-shaped cake to share with the family February 13th. It was sweet and pink, just like the Birthday Girl!
I wanted to get a birthday portrait of my ballerina girl and thought our dining room -- still empty from her ballerina tea party -- would be the perfect spot.
I asked her if I could take her picture in front of the window.
And I think she misunderstood my request.
This wasn't quite the look I was going for, but I have to admire her skills in holding this pose!
I would say that last photo is definitely worth an extra piece of cake!

I just love how Emma took your request so literally...she really did try hard to please her mommy!!! Such a doll baby she is...reminds me of my Rachel when she was that age. Last Saturday, my baby had her first baby and now SHE is the mommy.
I needed a dose of pink ! Lovely cake!
