I'm continuing with my trend this week to get caught up on all things Cohen. I've been thinking lately about how I never shared photos of his first birthday party in Canada on his actual birthday and I've been feeling a little guilty. Better late than never, just like the thank you cards I still need to get in the mail for both of his birthday parties!
I'll start with the ABSOLUTELY AMAZING cake my sister Heidi made for little c. One of his top ten books is "In my nest" which Heidi and her family gave little c upon his birth. I thought it would make a great backdrop for my attempt at an owl themed party. Since creating this masterpiece, my sister has made a dozen or more creations and has started a cake business in her free time, working full-time, raising 3 boys, including 3 year old twins. Free time. Ha! Anyway, enjoy. And please check out her new blog where she's featuring her blissful creations.
Sitting amidst the present carnage wearing one of the 3 hats he received (this one was made my by wonderfully talented cousin Ashley; the other one was made by my very gifted friend Lynne, whom I don't think sleeps since she has 3 girls and managed to knit Big C a pair of iMitts in a day).
Enjoying cuddle time with his 101 year old Great Grandma.
Giving Aunt DeeDee a proper thank you for the one-of-a-kind birthday cake!
