Cassidy's Offical Birthday!

So I made it through the day yesterday with only crying once. I no longer have a baby, I have a little girl! Cassidy is officially four years old. I think she had a great birthday. I took a half day vacation yesterday, and went up to Cas' school in the afternoon. When I got there, all the kids were still asleep on their nappers, and were just about to wake up. I quietly walked over to Cas' and put my hand on her back. I started talking to her, and she woke up with first a confused look, and then a HUGE SMILE! She was so excited to see me. It always makes me feel so good. I showed her the cupcake cake I had brought, and she was thrilled! We sat down with her class, and all shared cupcakes.

When we were done, Cas looked at me and said, "Mommy, do you have to leave now?" I was so excited to tell her that I didn't and that it was our afternoon together. Her eyes lite up with excitement. I also told her I had a very big surprise for her. We left her school, and we headed out for our afternoon. I know it seems crazy, but I love the time I get to spend with my four year old, and a girl has to do, what a girl has to do. GET PEDICURES! Cas and I got matching toes, which she loved! Once we left the nail salon, we ran to Wal-Mart and I let her pick out a gift with some birthday money she got. We saved half though, and will put it in her savings account. =-) She picked out a Polly Pocket she wanted ,and we headed home.

When we got to the house, she was so excited to show Bella her toes.

Around 6:00 last night, Mike showed up and Cas' got so excited. When he walked in the door, she nearly tripped trying to get to him. It was so sweet. Mike even brought Cas a dozen long stem pink roses. She loved them.

On that note, this has been the year of Littlest Pet Shop and my favorite POLLY POCKETS! We got Cas' the Polly Pocket Pet Beauty Shop for her birthday this year. WOW was it a hit. Last night when we gave it to her, she couldn't wait for me to get it out of the box. Needless to say, we spent our family night playing with all of Cas' birthday presents ,and especially her Polly Pockets. It was great to see her so excited about it.

Well, I guess that is all that I have for now. I will post pictures by this weekend, from Cas' birthday party and actual birthday.

Take Care.
