Conversations with a 2 year old

Taylor is always talking, she always has something to say. Lately she has been making me laugh with some of the things she says. Here are a few examples...

Taylor: "Come on mommy, slide down on tummy."
Me: "Honey, mommy's tummy is too big to slide on the slide because of the baby."
Taylor: "yeah, I know." (Gee thanks honey)

Taylor:"Look mommy lots of puppy dogs!!"
Sure enough we were driving down the street and there was a lady walking 3 dogs.

We put Taylor's twin bed and a new dresser in her room. When she came in to look at it she said "Wow, cool!"

The other day we were outside playing...
Taylor: "chirp, chirp"
Me: "Are you pretending to be a bird?"
Taylor: "No talking to birds mommy."

Lately for some reason she also keeps looking at me and saying "don't worry mommy."

One of her favorite foods is hot dogs. So today when she asked for her 3rd hot dog for lunch, I doubled check with her said "another hot dog?" She said "yeah, I lick it up!" ??????

"Silly daddy"

She follows every "thank you" with a "welcome" behind it. Guess we are glad she is learning good manners.

Every where she goes or everything she does she wants me to go with her or do the exact same thing. And I mean everything! Everything is "come on mommy"

And her new favorite game is Simon Says. It is so cute to hear and watch her learn new things to have us do. I think she likes telling us what to do ;)

These days are long, but the years short.

These days are long, but the years short. I hear this at my MOPS group and it is so true!! Every day is so precious that you have with your children and sometimes it is hard to remember that. But they grow so fast and time flies bye, it is important for me to always remember this quote. Taylor had her 2nd birthday this weekend. I just can't believe our little sleeping sweet baby is 2 years old!! Here are a few pictures from her birthday tea party this weekend. She was excited to have a "tea party" and kept asking me when it was going to be. Finally it was here and she had a blast. She got lots of wonderful gifts, had fun playing with her cousins, and it was a very special day. She has been a wonderful gift from God to Zach and I. As we prepare for her baby brother to arrive I will remember this quote as he grows too. Because someday I'll turn around, he'll be 2 years old and I'll think about when I was pregnant with him and wonder... where did the time go???
