Happy (Belated) Birthday to Lil J - aka Brigadeirozinha

It is mindblowing how time flies...

Twelve months ago (and two weeks - I am very late in posting this) Lil J arrived in this world, turning it upside down (in a good yet crazy way).

These Melissa by Vivienne Westwood shoes are a present from my sister, aren't they too gorgeous for words?

Of course I made brigadeiros...and beijinhos de côco (the coconut/white ones)

It was a cupcake and tea party theme

So I made cupcakes, of course!


My sister painted this as a birthday present (in addition to those cute shoes) for Lil J
A M A Z I N G!


When I saw this skirt almost a year ago, it was too cute to resist, I kept it all this time waiting for her to fit into it, she wore it to her birthday party...

My aunt made the giant cupcake at the top - isn't it precious?
The white cake is my wedding cake - yes, I kept what wasn't eaten in my freezer (although being fruitcake I could have kept it outdoors)

And it was over all too soon...
