Good Evening ladies and Gentleman.

Im making a cake for my SILaw(s) this week end. One of my nephews is 6 months and the other is 2 years old,they are both getting baptized. they are not brothers.

I'm suppose to make figures looking like them but have no idea how to incorporate them together being that one is not even sitting up yet (6 month old) and the other one can't stay still for a moment.

It will be one cake for them both but have no idea as in how to create the scenario.

I thought about laying down the 6 month old but then the 2 yr old will have to be sitting up or standing and I feel that it might look funny. I wanted to add some type of little blocks or toys, but again I'm clueless. If anyone has any ideas or a pic they might be willing to share I will so be very appreciative.

Well thank you and thank you for reading.

How about, the cake scene is a playroom... you could have the baby in a crawling position (maybe even reaching for a toy) and the 2 year old maybe in a "half-jumping" position, or running position with a toy in his hand?

I have samples of brother/sister, but they might give you an idea.

Ultimately, you shouldn't worry about this stuff, because I don't think it will look funny. You could lay the baby on the board and sit the other one on top of the cake.
