Two. Two. Your kids are two! How cool.
I'm trying to wrap my head around it. It's UMPOSSIBLE. Also cool.
DH just got our new treadmill put together. I still wish we would have shelled out the extra $60 for the built-in tv.
Lindsey: Why--why did you... Lorne: One last job. You're not part of the solution, Lindsey. You never will be. Lindsey: You kill me? A flunky?! I'm not just...Angel...kills me. You...Angel... Lorne: Good night, folks.

Grace practiced her standing trick for Polgara and wound herself up in cords in her bouncery thing.
AWESOME. I'm just so thrilled she's standing.
And yeah, TWO? It seems both longer and shorter. I mean, first time I met them, Noah was learning to giggle and falling asleep on me, and the next, he was giggling as we chased him in a circuit and he's embracing the cranberry relish. First time, I didn't get to see Gracie since she was busy scaring the hell out of her mommies, but the next she was all grinny and demanding dips and giving "are you kidding me?" looks, and a short while later, our girl is standing.
I'm glad to be on this ride.

I'm glad to be on this ride too!
Two is really amazing. They are growing and developing. I realize that in pictures Grace and Noah can both look a little blank, Grace especially. But they are such little people!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
It's UMPOSSIBLE. Also cool.
I know! It's so awesome. And their personalities come out in abundance in their photos! It's amazing that they're little people.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Oh no, the personalities are there in the pictures if you know what to look for -- though I agree, a lot of expression is in the way they move and vocalize at this age.
I'm just so frustrated that Grace is still in the hospital at this point, but it's clear that she's thriving as much as possible.

Our wings are not tired.
But they are such little people!
Late with the happy birthday wishes. People call the 2s terrible, but I didn't think 2 was terrible at all! It was when the boys were 2 that we began to communicate on levels that was impossible when they were babies. They become more little people with new abilities to make their personalities and opinions known. It is an awesome age.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I was talking with another parent at the playground yesterday and he used the phrase "coming online" to describe this age (18m+), which I thought was perfect.

I still like the term "twoberty."

Also, "Dylan Zaphod Alter" is an anagram for "Alpha Zany Toddler." I think Dylan wins at anagram.
