It is not the best-looking cake... but tasted good!

Saya was in the middle of all actions!
On this typical rainy winter day, my twins Noah and Alyson turned two years old! It's a celebration for the twins, but also for us parents as well. Caring for baby twins were one of the most challenging roles I have ever played. But now they are two and growing up leaps and bounds. I've never ever imagined that I would be a Mom of twins and I am just so glad that I am one.
Twins had a good day today, Noah a little on the cranky side but closed on the high note with a few new toys. Alyson was cheerful as usual and she enjoyed free sampling the cake I baked in the morning. Since twins do not care, I asked Sean what kind of cake he wanted me to bake and his request was "all white". I found an easy recipe online and baked from scratch. With my KitchenAid mixer, it was a piece of cake (literally).
We bought them a big 8 ft trampoline to put in the spare room in the basement and we are waiting on assembling until the remodel project is completed. The twins opened presents from Grandma, Nana and Pinky after eating cake. They got pretty busy playing with the new toys and would not even look up for the photos. They really like all of them and Thank You, Grandma, Pinky and Nana!
We are planning to have a combined birthday party at the end of the month for all my February born kids. I need to send the invitations out very soon!!
Happy 2nd Birthday my lovely Noah and Alyson!!
