Considering the above, it was pretty obvious that when planning Lottie's first birthday I had to have a cake smash session! A co-worker of Steve's has a love for photography. She came to him wanting to have a cake smash session in her portfolio so being as Lottie was turning one, we thought what perfect timing.
We scheduled the cake smash session for bright and early Saturday, January 28th at 9:00 a.m. Unfortunately, Lottie was diagnosed with the RSV and ear infection the day before. After much debate, we went ahead and kept the session scheduled (it was at our house) and told ourselves if she didn't feel up to it, then we would cancel it all together.
I'm so glad we did! While she didn't feel 100%, it was so much fun watching her very delicately touch the cake and eat the sprinkles. She was so dainty with it all. Very girly! At the end of the session Steve did what most dads (well my dad) would have done and smashed her face in the cake! HOLY MELT DOWN! She was so mad at him and did not appreciate it one bit! He spent the rest of the afternoon on her bad list! He got no love for a couple of hours! It was hilarious!
Without further a do......................
After the melt down - she didn't want anything to do with Steve just her mama!
Afterwards, both Lottie and I needed a bath! We were both covered in cake! Since Steve was in trouble, we left him to clean the floor!!! :)
Thanks Samantha for the photos! I hate Lottie wasn't feeling a 100%!
