She's two. She won't remember any of the move anyways.

Just go for it.
We did it last year, with a 4 year old and 1 year old. We moved 700 miles away from our home to live at the ocean... why? Because we love it here and life is short. The first year was hard with getting situated with a new income, me adjusting from being a working mother to a stay at home mother, etc. It's not THAT hard to move away from your family. Our friends have become our family, I still talk to my family just about every day and we see each other 2-3 times per year which is fine. Life is too short to not do what you want to do. I'm a huge supporter of adventure and new beginings. My next move is going to be to the west coast, I want to see what it's all about over there.
That being said, I would not move without at least one of you having a secure job unless you have a years income in savings. You can get wild but you need to do it in the safe way.0 -

You'll find, as she gets older, that she will pick up when mom and dad aren't happy or satisfied. If you have a chance to do something that's a dream and could better your lives - jump. She's do little she won't have issues adjusting. And if you're truly happier - she will be too.0

Do it! I've wanted to live in a coastal town my whole life and still haven't. I regret not doing it after college. My kids want me to and would love it as well, especially since their mom and I divorced a few years ago. They're both in high school now, so I'm waiting 4 more years.0
