My baby is turning 11. My oldest baby. Johnny.
When he turned 10 last year I struggled more then I did turning 30 in May. When did my baby grow up?
His friends party lands on his actual birthday on Saturday but we had a small family birthday this past weekend. When I asked him what kind of cake he wanted me to make he asked if HE could make his own cake. So he did. He even made the actual cake!
In the end he let Gavin and his cousin help decorate too but didn’t they do an awesome job?

I love it!! My boys love being in the kitchen too! I need to give them more chances to have fun!
Johnny bet me $5 I wouldn’t be able to not help with the cake, or try to interfere in some way… he owes me $5.
such an awesome cake! my oldest is turning 8 this year, can hardly believe it. the blink everyone talks about is oh so very true.
happy birthday johnny!
That’s great that he wanted to make the cake himself! Happy Birthday to him!
Heck yeah, that totally rocks, colors and everything!
I agree, 10 is just unbelievable – I can’t imagine yet know it’ll be here before I know it!

he did a great job. how did it taste? any leftovers??
He did a really great job!! Taking after his mom 🙂 Happy birthday to your baby (tween) boy!
A dangerous endeavor! Okay, with mine it would be dangerous. He did a great job!!
How fun! They grow up so fast.
Happy Birthday! That is a lot of icing for sure!
Hey I have an Anniversary coming up next month. Does he do Anniversary cakes too?? ~hehe~ Good job buddy! Keep up the cook work. Chefs/Bakers make really good money. When you grow up you can be a really good Baker some day! I’ll have the chocolate part, please!! Thanks for hosting!
My son turned 11 this year as well, I completely understand. As much as I struggled through my 30th this year realizing my lil’ boy has become a young man just blew my mind.
Happy birthday to him!!! He did a great job on the cake I am super impressed.
I was the same! I turned 40 this year and it didn’t hit me nearly as hard as my baby turning 10 a few weeks ago. Crazy!
They did a fabulous job on the cake!
So much fun to let him create his own cake!
11, really, when did that happen? happy bday kiddo
When your daughter bought HEELS!
Yum!
He did a great job! Now I want some cake!
That’s pretty awesome. I love when they start wanting to really do things themselves.
That cake looks absolutely delicious and very well done! 🙂
Happy, happy birthday to your not-so-little boy!
Not too shabby! Looks good enough to eat.
What a fabulous job… I’m sure they had a terrific time making it AND eating it.
Happy birthday young man. =)
I don’t have an answer for you…I ask myself the same thing so often. I’ve even begun putting things away that he will need one day when he’s on his own.
Ouch!
