…because moments like these need to memorialized forever.
Liam and I before lunch:
Liam: “Me go mine ding det.” (swing set)
Me: “Mommy is going to clean the basement after lunch then you can play on your swing set.”
At lunchtime:
Me: “Liam, do you want to pray today?”
Liam: “aaahh” (yes). Pause. “No ‘elp me.” (help)
Me: “Ok” and trying not to smile at the cuteness of him squinting his eyes shut.
Liam: “Di Do” (Dear God) long pause “Mo’y ‘elp me.”
Me: “Thank You” (Liam repeats)
“for my food” (ditto)
“and my milk” (ditto)
“and my swing set” (ditto)
“A- Liam interrupts
Liam: ” ‘elp Mo’y keen up” (help Mommy clean up)
Amen.
Can he please just be two forever?
completely A.d.O.r.a.B.l.e.!!! and love your photo!
two year olds are so much fun.
i have blinked a few times too many and now my first adorable two year old is 15!!!
yes. those stories need to remembered forever!
Two is SUCH a fun age. And the way they talk…adorable!
I’m still enjoying that Nikki can’t say all her words quite right. My baby is growing up!
So much fun and cuteness all wrapped up in a 2 year old. I am so glad you are remembering it.. and I really hope you frame that picture. Absolutely prize worthy!
Aww….so sweet. I remember when my boys were little, I loved the language they spoke!
Love your photo. Love your shoes.
What a sweetheart. Baby talk is just the cutest. Wish there was a way to keep them small.
Lets just Freeze this age- so cute
aww! he’s so cute!
but, what choice does he have with a cute little momma like he’s got!?
love ya…
Sounds just like the 2 year old at our house! Such a fun age…:)
love your picture!
So cute! Kaelin’s just starting to talk. It’s so much fun to listen to her. Love the pic.
Cuteness! 🙂 Our 2 yr old keeps on saying more every day. It’s the best! 😉
That photo is just gorgeous. And I can’t wait to hear more than the occasional scattered word from Vince–I have a feeling I may be loving the three year old stage with him more than the twos.
preciousness to the max!
sooo cute!
Aren’t two year olds great!!!! We’re especially enjoying J since we know how fast they grow up…our oldest is 24!! J’s prayer makes us all smile and trying not to laugh during prayer. He repeats quite loudly “Thank you, God! Thank you, God! Thank you, God!” over and over as he squints trying so hard to keep those little eyes shut for several seconds. I would like to videotape it sometime. Beautiful picture….blessings!!!
that picture looks almost like a studio set up b/c everything is just perfect including the background 😉 I love 2 year olds 🙂
adorable. those are the moments i want etched into my memory to stay forever. thanks for sharing a bit of your joy with us.
I just squeezed Dakota again the other day and asked God to help me remember these moments!
If you figure out how to keep Liam two, let me know—because I want to do it to Ariana, too. She was just dancing around the kitchen, gasping with sheer delight, because she found leftover hamballs in the fridge (and talked Mommy into heating one for her breakfast!). She doesn’t talk much yet, but she just started saying a very clear “Amen” at the end of every prayer (including the ones in church on Sunday!).
Another subject…I just had to confess the sin of envy…because I WANT THOSE SHOES (or at the least, an identical pair in my size).
P.S. I just noticed that Liam looks very much like his mommy!
Oh, help. I “just” realized that I used the word “just” f.o.u.r. times in that reply. *rolling eyes* More coffee, please!
so sweet!
Sooo sooo CUTE!! And that picture of the two of you is ever so darling. Is that really your front porch, all decked out in autumn glory? It looks sooo beautiful! And I love your shoes. 🙂
priceless!
no. they don’t stay two forever.. but somehow, in your heart.. yeah, they do! i look at my kate who’s 13 today and sometimes when she’s talking to me still hear that little 2 yr. old voice ~ “.. and in three years I’ll get my drivers liscense….!” huh??
loveLOVE that shot of you guys~ you look beautiful. that’s such a good color on you and those shoes – too cute!!
… the comment box went all wonky on me. i hope it finally went through. :/
@lifeisadance –
That’s really my front porch but it’s not all decked out. That’s the only corner that got lots of love. But I was kind of proud of it b/c I grew those little gourd thingies all by myself for the very first time. 🙂
love the coloring of the pic… and you? you look fabulous and like a sweet,loving mama!
