IWD... It's a good day

I survived the weekend, just barely!  Fionn had some sort of virus that started on thursday and I managed to not catch it until Sunday and now it would seem our his daycare provider also got it.  It's going around.  Fionn had his appointment with the resperologist yesterday and he got some blood work done and he's got to go back for a sweat chloride test before we see the doctor again in 2 months.  So we don't know anything yet but at least they're running tests and covering all their bases.

The wedding cake went very well.  I may have over calculated what I actually needed ingredient-wise and now have way to much but it won't go to waste thats for sure.  But I was told everyone liked the cupcakes and cake so that makes me happy.  Half of them were a vanilla toped with a citrus buttercream and the other half were chocolate topped with a vanilla buttercream.  I had some minor difficulties with the fondant but we worked it out in the end.  It kept wanting to crack and rip no matter what but I beat that out of it.  And in the end I think it was pretty nice!




Fionn and I made a plaster hand print today from a kit he got for one of his birthdays and as well as a clay foot impression.  As soon as they are dry we can paint them.  I love the little hand print even if it did mess up a little bit... That's all part of the fun.
