We made sure to be close by to blow it out quickly when he did make a grab for it and it was fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-lo-have-a-candle-on-their-first-birthday-cake#post-2772046 Thu, 07 Sep 2017 00:02:47 +0000 Mama Bird 2772046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, even though the adults had to blow out the candle. Of course, the photo of the big moment has me grabbing the cake back from DS when I realized he totally wants to touch the flame... FAIL. We were a little smarter with DD and showed her the candle, but didn't put it close enough to touch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-lo-have-a-candle-on-their-first-birthday-cake#post-2771876 Wed, 06 Sep 2017 11:21:32 +0000 BSB 2771876@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. We didn't. They saw their first birthday candle at 2. They were good with not touching it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-lo-have-a-candle-on-their-first-birthday-cake#post-967099 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 12:46:46 +0000 Smurfette 967099@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>only 4 months, but she will have one </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-lo-have-a-candle-on-their-first-birthday-cake#post-967095 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 12:44:13 +0000 yin 967095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, but he couldn't blow the candles. We sang Happy Birthday and blew the candles out for him. He was able to blow the candles by his 2nd birthday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-lo-have-a-candle-on-their-first-birthday-cake#post-967086 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 12:41:16 +0000 Andrea 967086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-lo-have-a-candle-on-their-first-birthday-cake#post-967048 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 12:24:38 +0000 Bao 967048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We will have one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-lo-have-a-candle-on-their-first-birthday-cake#post-967028 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 12:17:50 +0000 autumnlove 967028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-lo-have-a-candle-on-their-first-birthday-cake#post-967001 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 12:10:42 +0000 stargal 967001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nope :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-lo-have-a-candle-on-their-first-birthday-cake#post-966890 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 11:40:50 +0000 littlek 966890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, he is so grabby, I could imagine bad things happening if there had been a candle on his cake. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-lo-have-a-candle-on-their-first-birthday-cake#post-966851 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 11:30:56 +0000 chopsuey 966851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we put a candle on dd's and ended up blowing it out for her :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-lo-have-a-candle-on-their-first-birthday-cake#post-966841 Fri, 26 Jul 2013 11:27:02 +0000 lovehoneybee 966841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm in the process of making a bunting topper for his smash cake, and obviously I wouldn't put a candle under it (because, you know, fire). </p> <p>I was thinking I could put it on a cupcake or remove the topper when it's time to sing Happy Birthday, but would a candle be wasted on him this year? He can blow raspberries but not blow out air on command, so it would be me and DH for show. </p> <p>Did your LO have a candle on their first birthday cake? </p>
