I should be sleeping. But I'm not. I'm falling asleep sitting here, but can't seem to make myself go to bed. And the little guy in the crib upstairs is having a heck of a time trying to sleep. I think he's teething. We'll be heading out tomorrow am to re-stock ourselves with tylenol. Not that I think it does a whole lot of good. But just in case.

So today was a cupcake day. I'd have to say these little suckers turned out ok. I did a dry run of sorts a couple of days ago because both the cupcake recipe and the icing recipe I wanted to use were new to me. So I had to make them to see if they were up to standard. They were not. But after some tweaking, I think I got me some good buttercream icing, and perhaps a new tasty lemon cupcake recipe. Gotta expand out of the chocolate sooner or later!

Check out that icing technique. Kind of beats the everyday swirl. Ok, that's code for 'I can't seem to get that swirl mastered yet'.

So lemon cupcakes with pink and white buttercream frosting on top with some fondant flowers for that special added touch. Not bad I'm thinking.

Ok, the bottom of this one looks messy. Just ignore it. It must have been one of the first ones, or Mr.Mister might have been crying and threw me off a bit in a big rush to go and try and soothe him....then beg him to let me have 30 minutes so I could finish these suckers off.

And my cakepop model would like to draw your eye to the robot cakepops mommy spent all night making...without her special model helper! But of course mommy will insist that her model help her in ingesting those lovely cakepops. They are sure to bring a smile to her face. Oh, wait....they already have!!

These were done with additional cupcakes for a neighbors 1st birthday party. If Lil' Missus face is any indication, they were probably very much enjoyed!

Nothing's cuter than a baby in a jolly jumper. Case in point, take a peek at the cutie pics of Mr. Mister having a darn good time in the JJ.

This would be his second time in the jolly jumper. He got the hang of it right away. And his facial expressions were so cute. Big wide open mouth making little squealing noises. And the drool. Needless to say the next time he attempted the JJ, he got slapped with a bib. Which he promptly tried to eat and therefore increased the flow of drool tenfold. Still cute as a button though!

E is a favorite letter around our house. We are reminded almost everytime Lil' Miss sees an E. So yes, she was thrilled when I finally finished this project and hung it in her room. I'd like to add some more small E's; if I could find them. Regardless, this is a good start...or a good finish...depending on what else I can find.

And they're done with pink. Because right now, pink is her favorite colour. I did not push pink on her, she has decided herself that pink is where it's at!
