My view

2years 336days - 35 months

EEK. The birthday countdown begins... a month until I no longer have a 2 year old. Not a toddler, a big girl 3 year old. She's growing into the role well already though, to be honest. I have begun the party planning, the present sneaking in to the house (not helped by parcel force arriving and waving a box with the photo of its contents at the window where she's watching). Not sure I can prepare myself for it though! Toooo fast for sure!

She's had a happy morning already, woke up in a lovely chatty mood and kept telling me she was going to have cornflakes for breakfast at nursery, then stood impatiently by the door waiting for me to hurry up to take her. No tears, a big snuggle and a kiss, she sat nicely at the nursery breakfast table, having skipped in the rain. In her onesie.
