Easton's 3rd Birthday


Dane had the afternoon of Easton's birthday off while I went and had a mole removed on my neck.  The kiddos had fun with Easton's new birthday gift - a bike and rode to our neighborhood park.  Dane learned quickly that East wasn't quite ready for the big-boy bike quite yet because the concept of braking wasn't registering and East ended up falling en route home.  We now just keep the bike on the flat part of the driveway on work on braking.  We celebrated when I returned home and he received a puzzle, magnet board with abc's, bike, jogging suit, and a bin of animals (he gets up daily to play with these guys - thanks Lori).  We also celebrated Dane's birthday a day early (given that the boys birthdays are only 2 days apart) and Dane and I went to lunch at Cheesecake Factory and shopped for new running shoes for him.  It was fun to be together and have adult conversation!
