My baby turns 3


This month my baby girl turned 3. Her birthday was in the school holidays just after we went away for a couple of days to Mooloolaba so timing was a bit off. I had seen this fabulous Rainbow Cake on one of my favourite blogs The Idea Room and I thought it was so cute I just HAD to make it! Well I did, (I didn't put as much effort or icing for that matter, into mine as she did!) after staying up late the night before her birthday, I only have one cake tin so it took a while to finish. Each layer only cooked for 10 mins but then I had to wait for it to cool, turn it out, wash the tin and start again!!! I was really excited about the finished product and I was so excited for my daughter.

HOWEVER......little Miss M wasn't feeling too great when she went to bed and woke several times in the night, then she woke in the morning with a temperature. By the time we planned to have her cake with some family friends after lunch, she had to be woken up from her nap and she was not interested in eating cake at all...didn't even taste it!!! Poor darling, I couldn't stop loving it though and the bright colours just looked so fun.
How cool does this look?
