On Tuesday Abra was officially 6 months old. When Maya was born a friend convinced me that half- birthday's would be a fun tradition to start. I remember when I was a kid it seemed like so long between birthday's. So when Maya turned 6 months I made her a half a cake and gave her one present. As they get older my goal is to at least always go out to dinner as a family as an excuse to do something special.My favorite part of the 1/2 b-day is making the cake. I secretly love to do it, even though it always takes longer then planned. This year I was inspired by this great book ... "Hello, Cupcake!" It has the cutest designs in it and I have a great idea for Maya's birthday thanks to it. I made up Abra's cake design myself, but this book has some great ideas. And my philosophy is always who doesn't like a cupcake.

I think it came out really cute and Abra seemed to like it. She and Maya ate/played with the one side of the cake.
For a short time Abra also enjoyed her present which was the cutest stuffed bowling set. This is the only time she got to play with it before Maya said she needed it.
Happy B-day Abra!
