EJ & Grandpa Geno

Happy Birthday, Grandpa!

          Happy birthday to EJ's Grandpa Terry!  This post is two days late (Sorry, Dad!), but we still hope that you had a wonderful birthday!  Would it make you feel better if I named my first born child after you? :)
          These hold-this-sign-while-I-take-your-picture photo shoots are getting more and more difficult as EJ gets older.  It was almost impossible to stop him from crumpling up the paper and trying to eat it, let alone to get a smile from him, but we did our best!

          Happy birthday, Dad!  We love you!

And because we truly do want you to have a happy birthday....

Technical difficulties.

Eugene James

               EJ is named after his grandfathers.  Eugene is for Peter’s dad, Geno, and James is for my dad, Terry. (James is his middle name.  EJ has a slightly better ring to it than ET.)  EJ has a lot to live up to!

                Sometimes we call EJ the Fourth Eugene, since Peter’s grandfather is also named Eugene, and Peter’s middle name is Eugene.
