You know your child is two when they







  • Master the Art of The Temper Tantrum


  • Develop a refined palate (preference for buttered noodles, cold cereal and raisins above and in exclusion of all other foods.)


  • Learn to manipulate adults by acts of cuteness.


  • Exceed one's expectations in their genius ability to attract food stains and become generally filthy.


  • Show a keen appreciation for the word "No!"


  • Often refuse the stroller, but do not actually want to walk on own two feet.


  • Show a keen appreciation for the word "Uppy!"


  • Instinctively select the most expensive personal items and subsequently destroy them.


  • Become very particular about fashion. Refuse all clothing items except those with pictures of Spiderman or Sponge Bob.


  • Learn to selectively mimic adult conversation. Usually drawn to phrases such as "Oh Damn It!"


  • Determine that naps are optional.


  • Determine that listening to grown- ups is optional.


  • Determine that having one's diaper changed is optional.


  • Can melt a heart of stone by three simple words "I wuv you".
