Cake Smash!

I seriously considered not doing an “official” cake smash for Gerrit’s first birthday, because he got plenty messy during his birthday party. But in the end, I was convinced that I would get better photos with a cake smash session. Plus I figured Gerrit would enjoy destroying another cake!

My cake decorating skills fell through, so I just went with blue tinted frosting and sprinkles for the smash cake. It’s the same recipe as the cake for his party, so since it was semi-healthy, we did the cake smash at breakfast time. Hey, you only turn one once, right??

Someone is excited for that cake! You can see him eyeing it up off-camera, haha!

Haha! The cake had been in the fridge, so I think the coldness surprised him.

Hmm, this blue stuff is kind of tasty!

The aftermath. ^ He didn’t get quite as into it as I was hoping, but he still had a good time smashing another cake. And I enjoyed more cute photos of my birthday boy!
