Loving the number TWO!

Claire is TWO today!
What a joy!

One and loving cake!

Two, and still loving anything sweet.
She is often heard saying "I wanna teat!" (treat)

I NEVER want to forget her cute little voice or what she's been doing now that she is so vocal.
  • two bankies
  • people still commenting on her hair
  • "one succor, kay?"
  • monkey's bed mommy
  • "po, po hit me" (when Porter isn't even home!)
  • "iii doooit, kay?"
  • "tat too" (thank you)
  • "iii talk a daddy."
  • "iii watch a Dodo, kay mommy?" (Dora the Explorer)
  • "iiii mommy doit!"
We celebrated it with cousin Emily who is one day younger than Claire.

She will never know how much we love her until, I suppose, she has her own!

Ha! HA! When I looked at the super adorable close up of her I thought - wow look at that hair! So, when I saw the second thing on your list - people still commenting on her hair I had to chuckle. You have such cute little kiddos! :)

I LOVE that picture of Claire with the pigtails. we miss your family. Trent keeps wanting to see the picture of Porter in the Spiderman costume! He is VERY jealous of the spiderman tattoos... his favorite right now. i wish we could have been there to help you celebrate both b-days. I am so sad that our next little boy will not have a Maughan the same age!!! We love and miss you. I will try calling you today!
