Mr. T is T-W-O!

T opening gifts with Daddy at his party, look at those baby blues!

T realizes the camera is there, and puts on that special cheesy face!

And, one more try.  Welcome Terrific Two's!

When putting together pictures for T's second birthday it was so much fun to see how much this little one has changed since he's come home.  He was a just baby when he arrived and now he is a walking, talking, apple eating, motorcycle loving, couch jumping, fully fledged little boy.  Oh T, I've been trying to find the words to express my love for you, but I don't think there are enough adjectives in the world to tell you how much you mean to us.  You are chosen, wanted, prayed for and beloved. Your smartness and wittiness amazes me every day.  You continue to have such a terrific sense of humor.  You wake up in such a great mood in the morning, you are always ready to play.  You are curious, cute, silly, and loving.  You love K more than just about anyone.  You truly are a blessing to our family and I am so proud that I get to be your Mommy.  You are my son, and my favorite little boy in the entire world.  I love you T.  Happy, Happy Birthday!
