Parents Magazine has come up with 31 Birthday Cake designs that are really cute. I love the little dump trunk and bulldozer they have. The french fry cake slices

look almost real enough to pass to the wee ones. I wonder how that would be at a BBQ birthday party, I may just have to try. I told the kids about this one and they all want me to make it for their birthdays so I guess we’ll see if I do it for a baby party or one of them.

Do you remember any creative cakes you’ve ever created or had made for your baby? What were they?

Happy Birthday Son!

Today is Little A’s 2nd Birthday, but we celebrated it two days ago. Why do something like this? We knew that not all the family would be here on his actual birthday. Sometimes the only thing that matters is having the family there.

He had a chocolate cake with chocolate ice cream, his dad went out and got the Thin mint ice cream. Yes, the girl scouts now have ice cream out there for those that did not know and it really does taste like thin mints. Yummy. I couldn’t eat much as I have been sick but I did have a bite of each. When it came time for him to blow out the candles he definitely knew what he was doing. I actually thought we’d have to show him, but we told him and he blew it right out.

Course it was the presents everyone was waiting to see his expression on. He got a mailbox that sings, counts and has letters to go in. A tug boat from Fisher-Price for his bathtime fun, he loves the bath so this is perfect and there’s a little squirt fish. He got a small truck from Playskool and then one of those old pull along phones. I had seen a Jack-in-the-box but refused to pay $13 for it, plus it probably would’ve scared him.

Today, we’ve each sang to him and we’ll be going to the parade. Thankfully he’s at the age that he won’t care if we celebrated early. Happy Birthday Little A, we love you!

Baby Denied a Birthday Cake

A baby that just turned 3-years-old was refused a supermarket made cake when his parents went to order him one. You’ll never guess why and no it wasn’t because they wanted to put a baby picture of him on it. Instead it was all over his name.

Yep, due to this 3-year-old having a name his parents gave him he will now have issues the rest of his life. At least with this supermarket and making birthday cakes and I’m sure many other places. See the little boy’s name is: Adolph Hitler Campbell.

The store not making this tiny tot a birthday cake happens to be ShopRite. The child’s father, Heath, has already been hitting back in interviews and around the web. He admits the name drives at some but he says we must look forward not back and accept change. He states his son isn’t going to become Hitler and do what he did.

This isn’t their only child and I imagine they will come to similar situations as they grow older: JoyceLynn Aryan Nation and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie. Heath said they named their children names no one else in the world would.

Do you think ShopRite should’ve made the cake?

UPDATE ON CAKE: I just read here, that it seems the name wasn’t the only thing asked for. I can totally get ShopRite denying it now. I mean writing the name is one thing I was shocked about, but when I read they asked the baker to put a swastika in the center. Yeah, okay sorry folks but looks like there was a reason. Just a name wasn’t good enough but seems there was more to it.

Karen Meleta, a spokeswoman for ShopRite, said the Campbells had similar requests denied at the same store the last two years and said Heath Campbell previously had asked for a swastika to be included in the decoration.
