Getting Ready!

By -
We have been trying to get ready for our upcoming trip.  Most of our tickets have been bought and hotels arranged.  What is left will be scheduled tomorrow.  We have made lists, organized, cleaned, and baby proofed.  We have started packing.  I can not believe soon we will be in China, half a world away.  We have arranged for people to watch the house and the pets and we have panicked a little about finally being parents.  I have De-Christmased the house and Jim is painting a canvas for Chloe's room.  

Today I finished a dress I have been working on for some time.  I guess I just need a little more motivation, like a plane ticket :).  The next time you see the dress it will be on our little girl.  It may be too big or too small I have no idea but it does not matter any more.  Our Little Miss is coming home!

I wanna see the back of it. Does it tie? I do believe it will be big in her BUT you are creative and are bringing safety pins so she will be just adorable!!!

I've met you guys IRL and I know you are going to be GREAT parents! Enjoy your last 2 weeks of being 2.

Cake-Pops?

I saw this cute book on cake pops and thought that can't be that hard, yeah right! I thought hey Chloe's Birthday is coming up and just look at all the cute holiday ones.  This could become a fun family baking event.  AND THAT IS WHAT I GET FOR THINKING!   I baked a cake last night.  I read the instructions twice and today at nap time I gathered the supplies and dug in.  It all seemed to go well until the dipping.  I had one panda suicide right off the stick he must have known his fate was never to be as cute as the pictures in the book.  I switched to cupcakes thinking they would be easier and it was but they still had a longing, they longed to be cupcakes. On the upside they are yummy! I might try again, has anyone made these before?  Any tricks to make the dipping go easier?
