Last week was Little Man's sixth birthday.  I can not believe how big he is getting!  We had a small party for him here at the house, and he asked for a deer cake. 

The cake is made out of a sheet cake for the body, two small round cakes for the head, a cake baked in a bread pan for the ears, and another cake baked in a bread pan for the nose.  We just cut everything to the right shape.  The antlers are made out of aluminum foil that is covered in icing.  We were going to make the antlers out of rice krispie treats but discovered at the last minute that someone had ate the marshmallows! 

And here is my birthday boy.  We let him cut his hair into a mohawk for his birthday, which of course he wanted to dye green.  We did end up using food coloring to dye it green, which worked better than I thought and washed out quite easily.
