Cake Smash!

My little guy had his one year “smash the cake” session with his mama. I usually despise food on the face pictures, but when you’re talking cake and babies, it’s a perfect combination. D was hysterical. I wanted a picture of him just sitting next to the cake, but he dived right in. As you can see by the photos here, he did quite a good job at smashing his cake.

My future sister in law is a professional cake maker/decorator and she made his adorable cake. She works at Market Place and also does AMAZING wedding cakes as well.

the perfect little cake…

Gotta love it. We’ll see how Kaelyn does when we do hers. Naomi wanted NOTHING to do with getting her fingers gooky at her 1 yr. LOL, at least with little boys you don’t have to worry about that!

I found this when I Googled “baby first birthday cake.” This is an amazing set of photos. I don’t think I’ve ever posted a comment on someone’s website before, but I absolutely HAD to. Thank you so much for sharing. Baby D’s total look of bliss in the last photo is priceless. I can hear the “oh…yeah.” I totally want to do this with my baby for her first birthday. Now I have to find a willing photographer in my area!

I’ve got a request for one of these and am in need of ideas. What did you use for the backdrop and for him to sit on? These pictures are so adorable! Great job!!!!
