Molly is 2!


Time really flies when you're having fun. I can't believe that Molly is 2 already! Seriously, it seems like just last week that I was pacing around the house, anxious and waiting to go into labor a week after my due date. But really, it was 2 years ago. Wow.

Molly is so sweet right now - not "terrible" by any stretch. She's chattering up a storm and stringing words together into sentences. "I do it" is her absolute favorite phrase, and applies to nearly everything. She can jump like nobody's business - and does, several times a day! She is brave, adventurous, and has no fear. She loves giving hugs and kisses.

She loves her big sister. "Mogen" she yells whenever she seems Megan coming down from her nap. She has to give her a goodnight hug & kiss every night before bed. And several hugs per day. I so love seeing them love each other sometimes instead of fighting with each other.

And she just brightens every single day. When she wakes up in the morning, she yells "Mommy Daddy Mommy Daddy" so that we'll come get her. She is so excited to see me, every day, when I come home from work. "Mommy's home!" she yells as she comes running. I just love being greeted by someone who is so happy to see me.

I don't know where my baby went, but I am so in love with this toddler I have found in her place.

Monkeys!



That's what my kids are, I swear. I took them outside after dinner tonight to play in the backyard a bit, and they were both climbing all over the swing set. Apparently, they had some steam to burn off. Megan loves to slide headfirst down the slide and hang upside down and Molly wants to be just like her big sister. They both were cracking me up tonight with their antics.

Fun with light

Megan was having a blast running around the backyard throwing this ball all around, and I really wanted to get a photo of her. The problem was that it was getting dark and I couldn't get a good sharp picture. So I decided to play with a longer exposure, and this is what we ended up with after a few tries. I thought it was kind of cool how the ball and her feet are both a blur. She really puts her whole body into throwing that ball up into the air.

My Pink Ducky

I don't remember where I came across it today, but I love this take on fund raising for the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Please click on my ducky picture to forward it to friends & family, or to create your own. Either way, we're helping to raise money for a great cause!
