I can’t believe how quickly this year has gone by… this time last year I looked like I was carrying an oversized basketball under my t-shirt, now I have a beautiful little boy (who looks nothing like a basketball)!
I have been planning to do a cake smash session for Ewan’s birthday for a while now… I researched healthy cake and icing options, bought some new seemless backgrounds… and then on Saturday I realised that it’s only a month away so instead of baking we went to the supermarket and bought 2 carrot cakes, smooshed them together and slopped some cream cheese, icing sugar and cornflour (yum!) together and put it and our small boy in the studio together. Ewan had a great time obliterating the cake and he didn’t mind a bit that it was sloppy and tasted crap!
I learnt many things from the session… next time I will be more prepared for the aftermath, and will probably put down some vinyl or perspex. But despite all that I think the 3 of us have never laughed so hard. It was difficult to take the photos I was laughing so hard!
Happy birthday beautiful boy!

Thanks for being my first ever commenters on the site!!! (Apart from the spam comments I occasionally get… which is why your comment didn’t come up straight away)

I love his cake smash pictures. Plus he is too cute. Thank you for sharing them. P.S. I also read the part where you were say he didn’t mind that it was sloppy and tasted crap. I just wanted to say I have two children of my mine own so I know as well as I’m sure you do that kids don’t care what it looks like as long as they can either eat it (and it has sugar. Can’t forget that. Sugar is what kids love lol.) But back to what I was say either as long as they can eat it or make a mess with it they don’t care what it is. And cake is good for both things. It has lots sugar and makes a big mess lol. But yet again I just wanted to thank you for sharing these pictures of you beautiful baby boy.
Thanks Audrey
He had a great time (and so did we)!!
