How to eat cake and ice cream.

now, these pictures don't show the whole mess. her shirt was covered in ice cream drips and cake crumbs when she was done... no picture of that. why? i was too afraid of what she was going to touch with that much chocolate on her! i got her all cleaned up and clothes changed and thought, "hmm, probably should have taken a picture of that!"

anyways, the first picture is of her licking the dripping ice cream off her arm. she is holding a piece of ice cream in that hand. for some reason she felt that this was the best way to eat it! the second is of her about to cram another piece of cake into her mouth. she really liked her cake and ice cream and declared that she wanted more.

oh and for any one who wanted to see the cake here it is:

just three layers (10 inch, 8 inch, and 6 inch). iced in white butter cream icing. graham cracker crumbs poured over the top. then lastly, decorated with shells and star fish. i was really impressed that it turned out that good... i mean i think it really looks like a sandcastle that has been sitting out in the sun and is starting to crumble.

thanks for all the nice birthday wishes for bean everyone!!
