Alexis' 1st Birthday

My daughter Alexis is turning 1!! 

I had quite the time making her cakes...several mishaps along the way but in the end everything turned out great!

I decided to to make a bear cake very similar to my 1st birthday cake (I will have to hunt up a pic) and I wanted a small present cake just for the birthday girl. 

She really enjoyed her first taste of sweets!  Almost as much as I enjoyed cutting up the bear...
