3 Months Old!!!!

Today was a big day: 3 months old!!!  Now why was this such a big deal?  Well it is for several reason:

1) It is the first birthday in which is age didn't at least double.  I mean his first month birthday was exciting because it was his first.  However, Ethan was a little depressed on his second birthday because he was concerned that his age had exactly doubled, going from 1 to 2 months.  Can you imagine if every birthday your age doubled!!???  It is enough to make anyone depressed.  I think to some extent Ethan was expecting his age to double again on his next birthday; needless to say, he was a little apprehensive about it.  In the end, though, he was quite relieved that  his 3rd birthday only resulted in a 50% age increase from the last.  I think he is starting to settle into this whole birthday and aging thing and is now excited that on his next birthday his age is only going to increase by 33.333333...%.  Oh, to see things from a child's perspective.

2) He is Greek, and as we all know 3 is kind of an important number.

3) It is the only time in his life that he will ever be able to celebrate his birthday AND Saint Patrick's Day (one of his mother's favorite "holidays") at the same time.

So we all had a great time and looking forward to the next one!
