Eric is 3!!!

HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY ERIC!!!

One thing you might not want to tell a birthday boy before he takes his nap..."When you wake up, cousin Lauren, Tyler, Auntie Lisa, Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Paul and Auntie The Great are going to be here!!!"

If you do, this may be the result when you sneak in to snap a picture of the birthday boy "sleeping". He was so very excited he just couldn't sleep!!!



Baby girl knew how much playing was ahead of her, so she decided it was best to catch some zzzzz's!!!



As promised, everyone arrived just as Eric and Sara (well, Sara) woke up!!! What is this I see, a hug between the biggest Red Sox/Yankees rivals known! This can't be!













These two girls love each other so much! And it didn't take long before they were off in the playroom having fun carrying their own little conversations!





Nor was it long before the boys had their fun! Around, and around, and around, and around, and around they went!!! In and out of feet, around corners, and between chairs! These two fighter fighters were fighting fires left and right!









This went on for hours with pretty much no interruptions. Except for the time Sara decided she wanted to be a good helper and push the fire fighters on their trucks. This didn't go over so well. Nor did it go well when fire fighter Tyler didn't get to fight the fire before fire fighter Eric got to it!



Some one in particular was extremely happy our living room furniture hadn't arrived yet! This gymnast Lauren all the room in the world to show us her new moves!



"You gave her glass!", "You gave her glass!", "You gave her glass!" These are the words that were echoed throughout the house as a glass came crashing down! When we looked to see where it came from, we were shocked to see it was little Sara! Who would give her glass!?! All eyes were on Mommy, even Daddy uttered the words, "You gave her glass!" However, he couldn't do it with a straight face which gave his guilty self away! Nice try Mister!!! Hahaha! :)











It was a beautiful day out, so we decided to take the party outside. The pool was a bit too cold to go in, so we heated up the jacuzzi so the kids could put their feet in. What a nice relaxing time, until....



CANNON BALL!!! Uncle Paul played a trick on everyone and scared the day lights out of us with his huge splash!











We want more! We want more! We want more! So being the awesome Uncle he is, he gave us more!











We then dried off and got ready for some birthday cake and presents!!!











Happy Birthday To You!!! Happy Birthday To You!!! Happy Birthday Dear Eric!!! Happy Birthday To You!!!











Present time!!! Everyone couldn't have picked better gifts for this birthday boy! He got everything he loves!!! A Dirty Devil vacuume (he loves to clean/sweep), Fire Trucks, and Cars!!! It couldn't get any better!!!











Once every one headed home for the night, we glanced over at Eric to see he had crashed on the couch! Never has he fallen asleep on the couch before! Guess that's what happens when you party like a three year old and don't nap!



Little did the birthday boy know, but Auntie the Great still had a very special surprise for him. The next morning we got up early to see just what it was...his very first bike!!! And it's red!!! How cool!!!











He had an absolute blast riding it around! He's still getting the hang of pedaling, but he couldn't love his gift more! Though Auntie the Great getting to spend his birhtday with him was gift enough!

What an amazing 3rd birthday!!! We couldn't be more thankful for everyone for making it this way for him!!! We love you all!!!

And we love you, our very amazing birthday boy!!! You love every second of life, and we love every second of you! Happy 3rd Birthday Eric!!!
