Any excuse for cake....

9.17.2007

On friday Maddie asked me to dress her stuffed animals for a party. I got to work dressing 30 or so animals and she informed me that it was her stuffed kitties birthday. That sounded like a perfect excuse to bake a cake and have a party.

What a fun day! And what a great mom to stop everything and enjoy this special occasion. I love that she came up with an idea and you helped her run with it. You even baked a cake. Great job mom!

I love it that Autumn the dog came to the party too.

Thanks everyone for the sweet comments. Autumn could barely contain herself from going after the cake, but she was a very polite guest and even cleaned up all the crumbs.

Very sweet post! My kids are busy camping these days, no doubt inspired by Curious George!

That is SO CUTE. I remember making picture day for Yubi, my son's stuffed animal at school. Everyone else got their picture taken, so I made pictures to share with the class of Yubi.

Maybe if I'm lucky, one of my nieces stuffed animals will have a birthday soon. Can't wait.

The dog in the photo is priceless. I'm sure he was happy to join the festivities.

Just happened upon this blog while taking a break from work today (I'm an Intake Caseworker for a Child Care Services Agency that helps low-income parents find and pay for day care). You have a sweet little blog here! Your daughters look precious and you seem like such a fun mother! I'm in the process of planning my wedding and hopes for children are in my future...so every time I see things like your blog I get that mother-y feeling inside. :) Thanks for sharing your daily activities. The birthday party for Maddie's kitty looks like it was a success! (And it certainly was a bright spot in MY day!)

How fun! A tea party for everyone. :) And I am in love with your daughter's tights.

By the way, you've been tagged. Six random things about yourself, and pass it on to six others. Who invents these things?
