The second time I attempted to bake a cake (hello box mix) was for my husband's birthday last year. I forgot to grease the pan (picture evidence here). Result= pan cake. The cake and the pan became one.
Soooo I had big plans for the gender reveal cakes. I bought pre made cake mix. You cant mess up pre made cake mix...and I made sure I greased my little baking dishes. Result....
I forgot that cake rises. I filled each little dish to the tippy top with (blue...looks green) cake mix. Lava cake explosion everywhere! My poor little oven needs a good cleaning. Haha they were a disaster. So what to do what to do?
Put lots of sprinkles on it of course! I also did this wrong and did not wait until the cake was "cooled." The end result is a melting little biscuit and gravy looking cake.The Grandparents obviously did not care :)
Our baby BOY is due June 8th!

Who cares how the cake turns out when there is such good news to focus on instead :) I actually LOVED that you could see the blue so well spilling over in the first picture because I could tell right away that you were having a BOY! Haha. So exciting! I think it's wonderful no matter what you end up with BUT there is something special about the relationship between brothers!
Congrats, that is wonderful news! I am sure Max is excited!!
Yay! Congrats. Health and happiness to you!!
Even though you said that the cake was a disaster It doesn't look exactly what you said. Congratulations on the upcoming EDC. =)

Congrats! Baby boys are wonderful. :) I can so relate on the baking fail. I love to cook and usually luck out when throwing something together, but I can not pull off a successful baked good for anything. Haha.
haha, at least you are honest! what a fun way to share your exciting news. xo
omg so funny!!! my mom swears that you are either a good cook or a good baker. She can cook, I can bake. Neither of us can do the other!!

Oh my gosh congrats! How exciting! And you crack me up with your cake skills. Sounds like me but with cooking in general, however I can do cake box mixes lol.
I'm trying not to laugh. Really I am.
Oh boy, oh boy! Literally. Can't wait to see all the nursery "pins" to come. :o)
Now that Christmas is over, I'm kickin' this Shared Bedroom into high gear so I can at least get a crib and changing table set up at our house. :o)
Congratulations! As you know, little boys are so dang sweet to their mamas. :)

Yay! You will love having two of the same gender close together. They will be best friends! Congrats friend! I am so happy for you!
Woohoo! Another boy! Saves you a lot of money Linds right? Congratulations to you and Ian, Max is going to love having a little brother. Oh, and we will just leave the baking up to Aunt Cindy, I am the same as you, can't even bake a box cake!

Aww. I love this on many levels. Woo hoo boy!! The only thing I'm good at is making cake. (tip - under cook by a couple minutes. it always turns out better…and more moist.) You'll get the hang of it! Maybe cupcakes would be a good practice? :) But, I think the cake looks delicious. Sprinkles make everything better.
How exciting! Congratulations on your boy :)
haha! Congrats anyways! That's so exciting!
aww congratulations!! looks yummy none the less!
I am not a baker either! Ha ha! :) I bet it was delicious still! CONGRATS on a boy!!! !:)
Congratulations!!
Congrats on your baby boy to be! Boys are lots of work but oh so fun! (i have 2 and 1 girl)

Oh my word you crack me UP! Hahaha but CONGRATS!!!
This post is too funny! Everybody has that one thing that gives them a cooking headache. I can bake myself just about any cake from scratch but I have THE worst luck with my mother-in-law's Christmas cut out cookie recipe. Every year I find myself cursing/crying/yelling/slamming mixing bowls down or a combo of all of the above lol! Thanks for stopping by my blog today and leaving such a nice comment.. It really meant a lot! Also CONGRATULATIONS on finding out your bin in the oven is a boy!! How exciting

Ah! Congrats!!! I LOVE this!!!
