Easton turned 3!

Our crazy Easton turned 3 in June and I'm very slow to blog about him. He is such a spirited little boy and is growing up so fast! He sure keeps us on our toes, but we can't imagine life without him.

Easton opening presents first thing in the morning.

We hung out with Grandma Karen and Grandpa Rob on his birthday. Grandma Karen and the boys decorated a cake...and their hands...and tasted as much frosting as they felt like.

The completed cake. Easton did the yellow, and Dylan did the green. Great job!

Gavin, Dylan and Easton. Look at Gavin eyeing that cake!

We had a party the next day and my very creative sister, Michelle, made this darling cake. Easton LOVED it!

Getting ready to blow out the candles. He is so excited!

His most favorite present - a Mac Truck. He takes it everywhere with him and still plays with it all the time.

Some of the things we want to remember about Easton right now:

• Absolutely everything is a race! When we are driving in the car, he is telling me to hurry faster if the car next to us is "winning". If the boys are getting dressed, eating, brushing their teeth....anything....one of them is always saying "I won" while the other one is complaining about how it "wasn't fair!" Yes, I'm slightly tired of this "game".
• The winning is usually followed with this..."Oh yea! I win!" with a funny little dance. I do like that part (the dance)!
• He has an obsession with Disney Cars. He plays with his Mac Truck and the cars all the time. I love to hear him carrying on conversations with them. So cute!
• He still loves Thomas the Train. He will tote the trains around in his Mac Truck too.
• His favorite color is blue
• He loves to ride bikes. We finally have a bike for him to ride with training wheels and he loves to ride it around the cul-de-sac. He also does a great job riding Dylan's scooter.
• He loves to cuddle with me, and I love it too. He always crawls into bed with us in the morning and cuddles with me for a while. The cuddling isn't always too gentle and he is often climbing all over me, but it is definitely Easton cuddling. When he wants me to hold him during the day, the next phrase to come out of his mouth is "move your hair". He doesn't like it touching his face.
• He's potty trained. We do have our share of accidents unfortunately, but he usually does really well. We do need to work on the nighttime training though!
• He still bites his nails, though it is slightly better than it used to be.
• He is so excited to go to preschool!
• He loves to play with Dylan and friends.
