Jace Turns 3

Jace turns 3 on the 16th. We celebrated his birthday a day early since we were with the Dudley clan. I can not believe how time has flown. It seems like it was just yesterday I found out I was pregnant with Jace.

This year I broke my cake making mold and actually used fondant. Usually I do not bother with fondant because I honestly do not like how it tastes. But fondant seemed to be the logical choice for this cake so I whipped up a homemade fondant and constructed this Handy Manny Toolbox. I can not take credit for the tools themselves. Those were part of Jace's present. It turned out pretty well considering my lack of fondant knowledge and expertise. But the important part was that Jace loved it!

This last year has been fun and challenging with Jace. He is such a cute and intelligent little guy but also very headstrong. I am looking forward to what lays around the corner with this little fella. He is a pretty special guy.

Here are some pictures and videos. I apologize for the poor quality in the pictures. Jace has taken up the habit of playing with my camera and changed the setting without me knowing it. I also included two videos of Jace blowing out his cake and dancing with his new tools. And finally a video I took of him the other day when he went out to play in the snow.

Ryker loves chocolate and decided to climb on Grandma's table to get some more!
