Happy Birthday EZ

EZ turned the big 0-3 today and I can hardly believe it. It's freaky to think about how much our lives have changed since he was born. When he was born John hadn't even started grad school yet and now here we are coming up on our year mark of living in Texas and John working for Dell. We had a coupon for Buca Di Beppo so we went there for lunch and then I remembered,
"hey it's EZ's birthday, maybe they will give him some cake" and sure enough they brought him out a humongous piece of cake and he got to blow out three large candles on a fancy candelabra. I wish I had had my camera. He was so excited. This weekend he will be having his much anticipated Kung Fu Panda pool party and he has already been enjoying his basketball hoop from Grandma Sharon and Grandpa Steve and his new play kitchen from his Grandpa Bob. The basketball hoop arrived while he was napping and when he came downstairs and saw it he just went crazy. Unfortunately I didn't capture that on film either, but here are some pics from the last three years to help us reminisce.

EZ at just 2 days old

His first birthday. Like Netta a little shy about diving into the cake.

At 2 years old playing at my elementary school when we lived in Pittsburgh for about a month before officially moving from Michigan to Texas.

Finally, about to turn 3 and sporting the sweet smurf mustache while visiting John's family in Utah.
