HaPPy BiRThDaY HaRRiSoN!

I cannot believe you are 2! You have been a very balancing addition to our family, since the day you were born. Polar opposite of Jackson in almost every way, except that you want to do everything he does or at least do it with him. I love that your whole face lights up when you smile, and you have the most contagious belly laugh ever! You are also my cuddler and a bit of a mama's boy, but I am not complaining, I love it!
(1 Month Old) You are still our garbage disposal of an eater, except for Chinese food which is weird, but you were bound to dislike something. And all that eating is probably why you are SO big! You have been wearing a 3T since you were 18 months old, and size 8 shoe. Weighing in around 38 lbs. and about 36.5 inches tall. Our giant toddler. But it has come in handy when you are wrestling/fighting with your brother that neither of you have a weight advantage! :) And we can't forget those curls!! It took you a while to get them, but man do we love 'em!
(1 Year Old)
You're Obsessed with trains, specifically Thomas, but any train will do. Animals are a close second. You have to have one with you everywhere you go. You are talking more and more everyday, learning new things all the time. Your favorite word is "cool", which usually makes us laugh. You have started learning colors and shapes, and LOVE doing puzzles and reading books. You also love to be outside in the dirt or swim!
(18 Months Old) You are also our itchy fingered menace. Usually the instigator in most of the situations that end with me asking "why would you think this was a good idea?". Big brother just follows your lead when it comes to getting into things or making messes or emptying my fridge. So it hasn't just been all learning for you, you've also been an effective teacher. :)
(2 Years Old)
Completely fearless, you have been a totally new adventure for us! You are such a blessing, bringing so much joy and love into our home. You are Jackson's best friend, and I hope it stays that way for a very long time. Bubs... every one's little buddy. Can't remember the world without you in it! Happy Birthday!
