Happy Birthday, Erik!

Happy 2nd birthday to the family’s favorite daredevil.

The kid who recklessly jumps from the top steps into Daddy’s waiting arms, who begs to be thrown high in the air for kicks and giggles, and who always manages to kick Daddy in the groin during both.

(And yes, he was born the day after Mommy's birthday.)

    America’s funniest videos.

  4. That is a cute kid. Really cute.

    Mine like to kick Dad in the groin when picked up, too. I have no idea how we continued to have children with him taking that kind of abuse.

    Didn't realize that he and Reilly had the same birthday.

  6. Ty - Yeah, funny afterwards. At the time . . . not so much.

    Lin - Daddy's birthday is shared with the hippie set: April 22nd, Earth Day. I try and litter as much as I can that day.

    Sk - Yeah, give him a football or baseball and he's quiet.

    AFW - Kyle was the same way. He actually dropped me a few times recently "by accident."

    Deathlok - Wish Reilly a happy one as well.

  13. Happy Birthday Erik,

    I remember when my boy was that age I got to experience possibly the most painful thing in my life. He decided to climb onto Daddy's lap by hoisting himself up by a handful of pubic hair. I was on the phone with a client at the time but couldn't contain the shreik. The guy on the other side of the conversation thought I'd been attacked by wolves or something.
