Alexa's cake smash! Whoo hoo!

One of the fun things we did during Alexa's 12-month photo shoot is a CAKE SMASH! Yes, it's exactly what it sounds like. Baby + cake = Smash! Or, err, something like that was supposed to happen. Honestly, after Alexa's fun with cupcakes last week, I thought for sure that she'd be into it. Alas, we learned a lesson of how unpredictable babies can be! After a few swipes at the cake, Alexa decided that it was too messy!

We hope she still had fun. We sure did. Thanks to our fabulous photographer Erin Nephew for this wonderful photo montage of the smash! LOVE IT! Also, here's a special behind-the-scenes shot of Erin in action. If anyone in the DC area is looking for a fantastic baby photographer, please call her!
