A couple weeks ago, Carter turned 10. Yes 10! It's been an entire DECADE since this sweet baby made me a Mom. A job that he and his sister make me thankful for every single day.
I remember my own 10th birthday so well. My Aunt Loreen called first thing in the morning and said "Happy Birthday ya double digit midget!". I have officially turned over that title to Carter now (....although he will probably surpass my height in a year or 2, and I will be the midget again. Sigh.).
It was his "Family Party" year (we alternate friends/family birthday parties at our house), so we had a party for him with presents and cake and alot of laughs.
I saw this Kit Kat cake on Pinterest and wanted to try it. Just a regular 2-layer round cake with icing, kit kat bars around the edge (9 whole bars!), and smarties on top. It turned out really cute, not to mention delicious! I am forever convinced that cake tastes waaaay better with some chocolate on it :)
This kid is just the best. I can't say it any other way. We love him and the dynamic he brings to our family. He seems so mature lately, and we are so proud of the person he is now, and is becoming as well. Happy Birthday Carts!

I also can hardly believe that he's 10 already. It seems more like half that time since he was born. That cake looks perfect -- attractive and tasty!
Seriously hard to believe this is possible! I couldn't get over how big he was when u visited.
The cake is pure genius.
It's a weird weird feeling to know I have a friend with a 10yr old?!?! You were a BABY when you had him, but you're still a baby, because I'm still a baby! Happy birthday to Carter, may this upcoming year be as epic as the last decade :) Love you guys!
WOW! I can't believe he is 10! I love the cake you made, so cute. And what a great idea about alternating family/ friend birthdays.. I can never decide which to do on birthdays!
Im confused...how can Carter possibly be 10? haha...and wicked job on the cake, I have been wanting to try that..yours looks just PERFECT!!
