Celebrating Cassidy continues! She turned on on June 11; her party was Sunday. Family & friends made it fun. Did you see the cake?? I've been saving the picture of this cake for almost five years, knowing I'd be adopting again. I found a pasty chef, and I must say, she did a great job. And it was delicious. Not everyone was able to make it to the party so I have lots of leftover cake (bummer!)
When a baby is nine months when you first get her, the time to the first birthday flies! The days up to her birthday were bittersweet...knowing a year ago she was growing in another woman's tummy and now she's half way across the world calling me mama. We lit a candle at the party, recognizing her birth mom, who I'm sure still has a heavy heart.
Otherwise, Cassidy is doing well. She was sick a couple weeks ago with an ear infection and viral sore throat (blisters). That and teething six teeth made it an interesting weekend! She's very loving and has a "new" smile that almost looks like she's showing off her new teeth lol
Keep checking back for pictures.
