Having the Two of My Life
THIS is it.
Right now.
This IS it.
Two. Two is the age that I would want to redo if I could. Two is the perfect age to be alive.
The most upsetting thing that can happen when you're two is to be told "no" when you want to watch Dora the Annoying Explorer.
When you're two, it's gloriously fun to yell, "YELLOW CAR!" each and every time you spot a little ray of sunshine on wheels.
A peanut butter and jelly sandwich is a perfectly acceptable, and preferred, lunch for someone who is two.
When you're two, a hug is just a hug, and you can give anyone an instant jolt of happiness by giving them one.
A productive evening for a two-year old is when you get to play with Play-Doh AND read six books.
If you're two, it's cute when you pronounce "big truck" with a "f" where the "tr" should be.
You can pee your pants when you're two, and no one thinks anything of it.
Singing your ABC's perfectly from beginning to end is just cause for a party when you're two.
Two is a spectacularly fun age to be alive.
But since I can't go back and be two again, I'm going to blow bubbles for someone who is, and I'm going to blow those bubbles as if it's my job. Which it is.
32 isn't all that bad either.

Two is beautiful! I can see!
How DID you manage to blow bubbles and take those excellent pictures!? You're good!!
She gets cuter every freakin' time I come here, I swear!!! :)
TOO adorable!
Okay, in the second shot, I thought a bubble was coming out of her nose.
And my daughter? ALWAYS in denim overalls at that age! LOVE THEM!
ah, two...the good ole days!

Those are fantastic bubble pictures...! Just magical. I wish I was two, but my mom said I was terrible, so maybe not? Maybe I will just take a day, and act like I am two...sigh. But then I couldn't blog and that would be sad indeed!
This WAS so beautiful. And Alexis? Well Alexis is beautiful wrapped up in Angel. And I mean that.
That last shot is a FRAMER. I love it.
Dear Lord, she is cute! I love the last shot too!
She is so stinkin' CUTE!!! And yep, two sounds good right about now. Life was much simpler back then. *sigh*
WOW! WOW!
nothing like a happy baby to make you just smile and smile and smile! WTG MOM!
I can hear her giggling as I scan down through those photos. Even though I've never heard her giggle! I absolutely love them! Awesome, awesome photos!
First of all, I think these are my favorite Toddler pictures yet. The whole lot is frame worthy.
Secondly I LOVE how much you adore your two year old!!
I still think PB&J is a perfectly acceptable lunch or dinner for that matter. :P
I hear ya on the reliving the childhood stuff.
Too cute!
I'm glad to hear that two is so wicked, cause there have been some moments leading up to two that have been less so...
The only problem with being two is having to do all the years between two and now all over again...Love the bubbles!
I have camera envy. Seriously, yours rocks. Mine sucks hard.
Some of those pictures I could write the FUNNIEST blurbs too. I adore her sweet little face, and her facial expressions too <3
