One Day to Kate!

One day to Kate!
Everyone is getting excited. Kate will be one tomorrow.
We got Sloan some baking pans and some tips for her first three teired cake. The recipe sounds delicious. Her first "from scratch" cake too! Calls for cornstarch and unsalted butter and sour cream! I hope it comes out perfect for her...
We are making dark chocolate, yellow and swirl cupcakes to take to church. We are going to pipe some frosting in the middle as a surprise. We bought cute little toothpicks with colored flowers on them to stick in and may spell out Happy Birthday Kate on them (one letter on each)
I am also making my incredibly easy chicken enchiladas and hope that Kate will behave long enough that I can get to stay at church. I have had to come home a few times because church starts at 10 and her nap is at 10:30. She will not sleep there and it sometimes ends up in a wrestling match until I throw up my hands and come home.
I am thinking of waking her an hour early so that she will be REALLY tired when we get there. But if it backfires and she STILL won't sleep I'll be in real trouble.
Happy Day before your birthday darling! We are SO in love with you!
