Asher’s first birthday ‘Boss Baby’ cake smash photo shoot

I mean, sure, my pregnancy was especially a bit challenging and I pretty much felt as if I swallowed, like, a whole building when I was pregnant with him (the kid weighed 4,3kg at birth)… but it was totes worth it! For his birthday, this year, I knew I was going to do a cake smash photo shoot with Michelle of Cutepix, because as you may know, this is what I do for my children’s first birthday celebrations.

I mean, who says that beautiful princess dresses are…
