Happy 2nd Birthday Cora!

I can't believe my sweet, sassy, smart, silly, adventurous and amazing little Ziggy Schnelle Maus is already two! She brings so much joy to our lives, it is unbelievable!

Although Daddy had to be gone over her birthday (so sad!) the three of us celebrated before he left and had a wonderful day riding bikes, going to the playground, opening gifts and eating cake and ice cream. 

In celebration of her actual birthday on Friday, Cora and I had an incredibly fun birthday party at our house, which was such a delight! She had quite a few little friends and their moms come over to our house to play in the balloon room, make sensory bottles, draw, play with her toys, run around, eat lunch, have cupcakes and create general adorable chaos. We felt so lucky to have our new Switzerland friends over to celebrate with us!!

Halloween, birthday celebrations and bike rides!

 We've been busy this past week with a Halloween party at Wednesday play group, a Friday play date with our new friend Kirsten, from England, and her two adorable little girls, a fun birthday celebration with Daddy on Saturday, and we spent as much time as possible playing with Daddy before he had to take off to South America for two weeks.

For Cora's Saturday birthday celebration, we opened up morning gifts, went for a bike ride, followed by cake, a trip to the play ground (to burn off the sugar) and then we surprised her with a beautiful new kitchen, which she ADORES! 

We are really going to miss Daddy these next two weeks, but hopefully they fly by for all of us!
