I can't believe my little boy will be one in just a few days! It's gone so quickly. He's absolutely adorable and I find myself just looking at him and thinking about how lucky I am to have him (of course I'm not the only mum who feels this way about her children!). 2 years ago I was wondering whether I'd ever be able to have children so I'm very grateful.
We're having a little party tomorrow with some of his playgroup friends (although it all depends on whose mum I'm friends with!) I thought I'd bake him a cake. Problem is that I haven't made a cake for years and have never iced one! I now know that I'm useless at icing. Absolutely, utterly useless! Never mind, at least I tried. I know he won't remember it but I will so I want his 1st birthday to be fun for everyone involved. We'll have to see how it goes tomorrow!

first birthday cake
I'd love to hear how your party went and whether you managed to make and ice the birthday cake.
One interesting idea which is becoming more popular is for a mountain of cupcakes to be served instead of a traditional cake. You can serve them on a cupcake tree stand.
