As you try to stay busy during early labor or while older siblings are eagerly waiting, why not bake a Birth Day cake? Whether from a mix or scratch, baking and decorating can keep you occupied while working through those early contractions. For excited big siblings, a cake is also a great way to pass the time as their anticipation builds!
To welcome our youngest the older children asked if we could put a zero candle on top of the cupcakes, then sing “Happy Birth Day!” It was a joyous welcome as we introduced them to our new baby.
