Happy Birthday Cassidy!

A little photographic proof that Cassidy did indeed turn 2 last week, for those who were not able to join her for such an auspicious occasion. As I'm sure all parents say, "Where does the time go?" But it really does feel that way. 2 years! Wow! At the same time I can also say that so far, it is still just getting more fun by the day.


So we kicked off the birth-day with her new (to her) play kitchen awaiting her in the living room. When we brought her into the living room we said "Cassidy what's that?". To which she replied "Oh! A stove!" and got right to work:

We followed that up with a little excursion by bike (in her new birthday dress and toting the Maisy library book bag I made for her):

For some cupcakes! Mmmm...one pumpkin and one gingerbread (she promptly ate the little ginger-man off the top of the gingerbread one). We also picked up a lovely red birthday leaf along the way:

Next we hit the library to find, read, and check out every Maisy book we could locate. Turns out, there are quite a few:

The day ended off with a chat with Aunt Caitlin and the opening of a pint-sized Kohahna t-shirt, giving Cassidy the chance to transform herself into a little blue elf:

We followed up the day itself with some weekend birthday festivities -- a trip to the Academy of Sciences in San Francisco, more lovely gifts from her many admirers and cake with candles -- but these pictures are scattered hither and thither amongst many cameras and will have to be gathered together at a later date. In the meantime, I'm pretty sure this little girl knows how loved she is, and we look forward to seeing what the next year brings!
