Casey's 2nd Birthday

This should have been posted awhile ago...
Casey had a low key 2nd birthday... which he some how managed to spread out over an entire week of celebration.  On his actual birthday he came home to find that his crib had been transformed into his new toddler bed.  That weekend we had planned a little outing for him with the family.  After going to the build a bear store and out to eat, we headed back to the house for presents and cake.  Here he is waiting for his big present from G-daddy (granddaddy) and G-mommy (grandmother). 




He got his very own table and chairs (made by G-daddy)!




I guess after the excitment of receiving a big boy table and chairs the other presents seem just kind ho-hum.  He looked so serious... or maybe just not thrilled.
 




Hmmm... a shirt.




Casey didn't really like the fact that his new flashlight roared at him.  (He did warm up to it after awhile).




So when does the fun begin?




Okay on second thought I think I might like this birthday thing.




Notice the finger in the mouth... that's the "I'm not really sure about this" signal.




Hmmm... I'm not so sure about this one either.




Well maybe it's okay after all.




It's tough when you have to wait on the adults to quit playing so you can enjoy your own presents.  :)




Finally it's a good birthday!!!




You wouldn't have thought that his blowing technique would have done much... but it worked!




Casey got the first bite of cake!




Mmmm... it does taste pretty good.




More cake.




And we end with a cheesy grin!

  2. That cake looks awesome! Are there oreos on the inside too, or just chocolate? Either way, I may need the recipe :)

  3. The cake was pretty good. It was just a chocolate cake with a whipped cream oreo icing. Now that you mention it... a layer of oreos on the inside of the cake might have been really good! I might have to go back and try that recipe again! Your welcome to it!
