The second was actually on his birthday. He spent the day with us, taking his first trip to the adult part of the gym, opening some presents, including some LEGO and an Arsenal soccer shirt, and having a super birthday cake made especially by mum (who gets very good at birthday cakes this time of year!). 
A week later, George wrapped up his birthdays for this year. He had Alex, Brandon, Andrew and Adam around for a sleepover. They all went to Okinawa, in Mount Kisco, and had Hibachi (when the Japanese chef cooks the food in front of you; spins and juggles his utensils, throws eggs in the air, makes volcanoes out of onion rings and throws bits of broccoli and shrimp in guests mouths. They put a big hat on George when everyone sang happy birthday to him.
They got home, played Game-Boy, and built woonderful things with LEGO.
They next day they all had breakfast and went to see the Harlem Wizards play at Horse Greeley, the local High School. The Harlem Wizards are like the Harlem Globetrotters, though their trotting seems to be restricted to the New York area. They played some local teachers.

3 birthdays! Don't go setting precedents, young George. It's Fin's birthday soon - and I think he's discovered the key to getting more than one per annum, which is to have a party on a different day to the day on which he was born. However many he has, though, the dominant theme will be soccer - playing, eating, drinking, sleeping dressing up and dreaming it.
