......one small, ill tempered, obstinate, temper tantrum havin' 3 year old girl. Refuses to potty train "Until I am a painter". Has opened 2 bags of Great Value cheese puffs this morning and dumped them into a big bowl because, she says, she is having a birthday party for Jesus. Got into my lipstick (a new tube of course) while I was in the shower. Found her sitting in the downstairs bathroom sink with lipstick all over her face.

(just kidding of course - although this mama could use a day off!)

My DD just deleted a long post I was typing as I was typing it- reached over and somehow deleted it all with two little clicks on the mouse.

I hope your DD's nap time is soon

and the rest of the day is better!

I can completely understand..I have a 2 year old and a 4 year old..and I don't know how we survive some days!!!! Hugs, and hang in there!

She sounds adorable I would love to take her off your hands for an afternoon. Enjoy it while you can and just remember she will out grow it. I miss those days can you tell? I am looking forward to being a grandmother some day. I plan on loving every minute of it.

Been there, sometimes still do that. Try to get a few moments to yourself. I've always found duct tape to be a big help.

Just kidding.

Really.

No, really.

The redeeming value of mornings like this one are that one day you will look back on it and laugh. Of course that day will probably come when she has a daughter of her own and she is experiencing the same things.

In the meantime, long hot bubble baths and tea in pretty china cups does tend to help a Mommy's sanity.

Can totally relate!

My two year old grabbed a soda can yesterday and when i said bring it here, she proceeded to dump it all over our new carpeting while singing yankee doodle!

I feel your pain!

Hmmm guess we shouldn't let my 3 yo and your 2 yo meet huh?

I wonder what kind of trouble they would get into......

At least we know they are bold and strong minded!

The worst thing is my 3 yo is sneaky! My 7 yo was never this sneaky! LOL!

**mommy2many** · 02-02-2005, 05:03 PM

OH yes my older ones weren't as sneaky either. I think the more sisters or brothers they have the more sneaky they become! If ever it's quiet I always say "where's the baby" because I KNOW she's up to something!

I have a 3 yo dd too.

I feel your pain.

I got my 3 year old up, she whined all the way being dressed, all the way to the car, all the way to drop off the other kids at school and all the way home. Oh and we arent potty training either. She knows what it all is but doesnt seem to care. Well, and being 12 days away from my due date(now) I think she is worried we will forget her.
