This cake is my pride and joy. . . and my first experience with fondant. If you know me at all, you know I'm quite an amateur baker (as in, I've only done it 3 times in my LIFE!), but motherhood has inspired me experiment a bit. That being said, it's a miracle of God this cake looks anything like my goal of "2 peas in a pod" . . . I used a football pan for the pod (turned it upside down) and baked in two glass bowls for the heads. I didn't have enough pink fondant, so one of the twins has jaundice. :)
I'm not a huge fan of baby shower games, neither is Molly, but I found this idea on the internet and HAD to use it. Ethan videotaped Kyle (prior to the shower) answering a series of questions pertaining to pregnancy, babies and fatherhood and Molly had to guess his response. If she got it right, she opened a gift; if not, she had to chew a piece of Double Mint gum. . . I loved that Kyle was able to play a part in the shower even though he wasn't physically there. Great game! I highly recommend it to anyone planning a shower!
Molly thinking about Kyle's response to a question. . . She actually did quite well! I was highly impressed!!
Ugh!! LOVE that TwIn BeLLY!! I can't get enough of it! :)

Is she having a boy and girl???? I'm so jealous, I hope someday I get to have twins...and I'd love to have a boy and a girl!!! She is so blessed and looks lovely!!! Baby showers are soooo much fun and you did a lovely job!
What a beautiful shower! I'm helping host one for Charis this weekend as they get ready to pick up their sweet little one from Ethiopia. I agree that it's so much fun!
Wish we could've done all the 'cutesy' stuff, BUT, when sending out 150 invites, something's gotta give :)
**The cake is PRECIOUS!! I've done quite a few cakes, but never used fondant. You'll have to give me pointers!
