On a different note, here's a taste of the conversations I have with my two-year-old while his big brother is at school:
Mom?
Yes.
I'm sad.
Oh, can I give you a hug?
No.
What can I do for you?
Mom?
Yes.
I gonna beat you! (meaning he wants to race, not beat me up)
Oh, yeah, well I'm gonna beat you!
Are you kidding me?
Yeah.
Mom?
Yes.
You wanna watch a show?
Well, you already watched a show today. Maybe later.
Ooooh. (yes, he can pout at only 2) Should we watch a diff'rent one?
Not right now, maybe later.
Mom, should we do't again? (persistent, eh?)
No sweetie.
Mom?
Yes.
I miss Ben.
What does Ben do at school?
He not wistening. He plays bawl.
Oh, I see.
Mom?
Yes.
I miss Dad.
I know, I do too. Hey, let's read a story!
No, I d'wanna read a story. Can we feed da ducks?
Yeah, let's go feed the ducks.
Awright! Here we go! Pchswwww (that really is the best way to spell his rocket sounds).

I liked the "no trespassing" picture, but I have to say that the picture of the leaves is very impressive and festive.
Cute blog!

I love the fallish leaves! And Isaac is very cute and very persistent! Isn't it amazing that they have their own ideas at such a young age. Sophia is 17 months old and picks which shoes she wants to wear for the day -- and only what she picks is allowed. Silly girl!
I'll vouch for the fact that you are a very nice lady -- and a fun friend and a great mom. Isaac is looking more and more like Ben at the same age. I miss you.
I am a big fan of real dialogue transcriptions. Apparently it is especially nice with two year olds.
doesn't that just make you want to pinch his cutie little cheeks! I know I do.
