what a long, busy busy day!
Don't be sorry, your children come first :D
Cute cute cake :D
Okay, I am loving that cake! And Gabe does, too. We have watched Wall-E everyday for the past two weeks.
I may have to copy that cake.
Good luck with the lawyer stuff. Hope your life gets settled quickly.
We're patient people, you know. We can wait to see the pics.
Get some rest.
You are one busy and talented lady! Please take a nap...you make me tired!
LOVE the CAKE! OOO LOVE the BUILD A BEAR she made....OOO and it has little BOWS!!!! TOOOO cute! All that girly sort of stuff!!! What a long busy day for you and I hope the Chest Cold is getting better!
Have a Fab Wednesday!!!!
omgosh I just woke up and am tired just reading about everything you did...that cake is super cute!!!
What a fabulous day for Miss Essie!! She looks very happy. ;-)
Oh, Lizzy...
You so need a hot tub. STAT!
That made me tired. You are SuperMom!
Cake was AWESOME. And I bet it yummy.
Essie looks so very happy with her new build a bear. And that cake - you rock. But I am with Lula...I think that there is a hot tub calling your name. Can you put Calgon in the hot tub??
Just a few things:
You did a super job on that cake!
I had ghetto princess baby teeth once. I have deep grooves in my teeth, which makes them cavity prone.
I will wait patiently for the Thanksgiving recap :o)
Sleep tight, Lizzie!
Wow! That is a crazy day! You definitely deserve some sleep! I was trying to figure out what the cake was before you iced it but then it all became clear. This is so neat! You did an awesome job! And another reason for 'ghetto teeth'! Haha!
Oh. My. Goodness.
Now THAT is a busy day.
Hope you got a good nights sleep!
that does sound exhausting but that cake is awesome. I didn't know you were to talented.
I think we'll forgive you! So what's the cake for -- I must have missed it somewhere along the way. I think I live in a cave -- oh, wait, I'm at the airport going to Baltimore and it looks nothing like a cave!
What an adorable cake! I am sorry your day was so uber busy, but it sounds like the girls (mostly) had a fun time?
I hope your beautiful girl had a good b-day!
I'm exhausted and I'm just sitting in my chair! Phew!!
Happy belated birthday, Essie!
Love the Cake!!!!
and yes, now I'm exhausted!!

You are inspirational. I must admit, if I was posting this, there would have to be an extra line after Met ex- at the mall to eat with the kids
"Got arrested for finally shooting ex-"
(that's how my ex- situation rolls, unfortunately)
Just sayin'. :-)
Dang, girl, that's a busy day!
(And I was going to commend you for not killing your soon-to-be-ex, too.)
Ohh, That was one exhausting day. I think I might need a nap! :-)
Quite the busy day you had! Great cake:-)
HOLY COW THAT'S A BUSY DAY!!
AND that's the coolest cake EVER!
High - five!
p.s. belly pics will be up this weekend- i limit myself to only taking them on the 5th of every month :)
What a full day, I would be in bed too! I love the cake, I kept looking at trying to figure it out, and then when I saw Wall-E I was so excited. It was perfect! Night, Night.
I got tired just reading what you did!!!
That cake turned out EXCELLENT!!!!
Great job!!!!
Ghetto teeth. hehe
The cake looks awesome!!
Whew! I'm exhausted, just reading about your day!! But gotta love the cake...but how come Wall-E isn't wearing PLAID? And, hey, I've got a challenge, of sorts, over at my place today. I think you might enjoy it!
Great job on the CAKE!
Love that cake!! And after all of that...I humbly bestow upon you the mom of the year award!! Your girls are so lucky to have you...you rock!
Okay, now I see that its a Wall-E cake. I wasn't sure what that was. I must say your icing job is fab.
Can't wait for the Thanksgiving pics.
Lizzy...your day made me dizzy!
love the cake, looks yummo...
and can you tell me how you keep the oven so clean?
That cake is ADORABLE!
Whew! Hope you were able to get a good night's sleep.
Great job on the cake!
That cake is awesome...and you are a wonderful mother!
