Yesterday I received a phone call from my middle daughter asking me to make a diaper cake for my oldest daughters baby shower. Ever since I made one for my youngest daughters baby shower three years ago I have been inundated with requests from different ones. This daughter is having a little girl and I am busily trying to get some cute ideas. For my other daughter, who had a boy, I made a monkey riding a the baby can use. It turned out so cute. As you can see, the wheels were made of diapers and the rest is various items that can be used by the baby. I need to get busy and decided what kind of diaper cake to make and start gathering up items.

I'm not sure. Maybe because the first ones made were designed to look like a centerpiece cake.

My daughter decorated her son's room in jungle animals and my son-in-law like riding his motorcycle. It was a no brainer to make it like this. I was pleased with the way it turned out.

I will definitely get a photo of it. It is going to be frilly and girly. Other than that I don't know yet what it is going to look like.
