College Textbook Update! Praise the Lord!!

So, thanks to some awesome co-workers and the internet I was able to track down a great company that can supply me with the necessary textbooks for school this year. Total savings: $131.00!!!!! If I would have gone through the college bookstore I would had to pay A TON more so thank you CHEGG.com for allowing me to keep the money in my pocket! Woop Woop Chegg-a, Chegg-a, Chegg-a, Chegg-a, Ca-CHING, Ca-CHING this express money train is leaving the station.....Ca-CHING, Ca-CHING!

August 28th is the date and I can't wait!

10 inches and counting...it is almost time to tackle that goal I had set for 2010 :)

NOTE: There were some scheduling conflicts with the girl cutting my hair so I had to move my appt. back just in case some of you were thinking you imagined the date to say the "21st" a couple days ago and now it says the "28th" ha ha. You are not imagining things! :)

Always the diaper cake maker, never the diaper cake receiver...

....And that's the way I like it right now :)
As you can see in the pictures I make diaper cakes for baby showers to take as the new mom-to-be's gift. Diapers are a practical gift that every new mom needs and there are so many ways to "dress" them up! Kylie's cake was made for a very special mom-to-be who has a sassy yet sophisticated side to her so of course her cake had to have a princess crown and a hot pink boa on it-not to mention she was having a girl and what girl doesn't want to be a princess diva at some point during her lifetime? I am still trying to grow out of that stage :)
The other more subtle yet chic cake was given to a mom who does not know whether she is having a boy or girl (yay! I love surprises!) so I did a gender neutral cake but I added some flowers for decoration since this new mommy-to-be loves to garden.
You can double click on the images to better see the detailing of the cakes but don't look too closely or judge too harshly-I am not a professional!
Congrats new mommies all around me! I am happy to have the opportunity to sow into the lives of your new little ones by simply supplying them (and you) with practical yet oh so cute diapers cleverly disguised as cakes. Enjoy!
PS. A GREAT BIG SHOUT OUT goes to Shawna who made the viewing of these cakes possible. Since I didn't have my camera I had to use my camera phone to take the pics then I sent them to her via a picture message to her phone where she then sent a mobile message and uploaded them to her facebook page and then saved the pics from facebook onto my computer in my pics folder. Ohhh technology how useful and time consuming you are.
NOTE: Shawna also had to endure lots of questions once the diaper cakes ended up on her facebook page from family and friends questioning whether the cakes were for her, in which case, they are not ha ha. Sorry Shawna but love the pics! :)

Sassy co-worker cupcake cake....ohhhh la la!

A fellow co-worker of mine just turned __________ years old. She took her birthday off of work but we surprised her when she came back with a super awesome totally rad like for sure sassy cupcake cake. My co-worker calls it her "sassy black girl" cake. Just in case some of you are stuck on being PC about things....the store also makes them in "sassy white girl" cakes as well. She was soo excited and everyone else is really excited for her...and also because there are now 24 cupcakes that need to be eaten asap! Happy Birthday Yolanda!! :)
