Hi! I just found your blog and I love it! Little G is so cute in all
these pics! I laughed when I read this post, but it's typically for a two year old!

He might be a monster, but he's dang cute. And look at those sweet little, chubby cheeks.

oh boy, the terrible twos! I vaguely remember them but it's hard, you know, through the haze of the vodka ;)

I think I can say it will get better. Notice I didn't say when? ;)

I just love this post! Love it!!!

Love love LOVE the hair!! Seriously, Elaine, it is gorgeous!

And can I say that Isabella? Is the exact.same.way.

Except when she is mad? She sometimes takes it out on poor Maddie :(

Cheers to 3 being a happy year for us both!

Sorry, but I can't help but snicker - just a bit! I can SO relate. Thankfully, Nadia has mostly outgrown the difficult-just-for-the-sake-of-being-difficult thing, so there is hope for G too!

And, LOVE the hair!

I love your hair!! So cute!!

Toddler years..remember them not so fondly. I am glad to be past that stage as cute as they can be!

2009-11-23T19:25:21.674-06:00

Love the red hair!!!!!

So, Ihave to say that 3.5 is better than 2.5 BUT there are many times that I am wishing he was 4.5 already, lol.

Hang in there!

Your hair looks fabulous!

Troy just turned two and is starting to say "MINE!" and "NO!"

On his worst day, he still has nothing on his sister at that age. She was a TERROR.

I love your red hair, and I hesitate to say that I...

2009-11-23T16:27:32.201-06:00

I love your red hair, and I hesitate to say that I love this post, but I do!! You've reassured me that my 2.5 year old is in fact a normal 2.5 year old and not some sort of mutant put on this Earth to test my patience day in and day out!

2009-11-23T15:31:21.201-06:00

I'm glad to hear that my child is not possessed by the devil because I was thinking that maybe....

My middle son is also 2 1/2 and displays the exact. same. behaviour. Unfortunately he takes his anger out on everyone and anything, including his 15 month old little brother! Please, please, please let 3 be better for him! I didn't go through this with my oldest (who is 3 1/2) so this is all new to me! Of course, we still love him to pieces...most of the time!

Thanks for sharing.

2009-11-23T13:22:50.350-06:00

It definitely does get better! That's all you can hang onto at the moment. That and the fact that he's ADORABLE!

2009-11-23T12:52:20.065-06:00

I am saying the same prayer as you. B/c 2 is kicking my butt daily. I hope that my three calm way down at 3. Oh, Please God!

Maybe it's the middle child thing? My 5 year ...

2009-11-23T11:29:33.283-06:00

Maybe it's the middle child thing? My 5 year old is just like that - I should buy stock in Magic Erasers because the child has written on every surface known to man in this house.

I won't even discuss the potty training thing - mine is in Kindergarten and we're STILL dealing with potty training issues.....he's almost 6.....

(((HUGS)))

2009-11-23T09:32:50.398-06:00

Your hair is lovely! And I can empathize with you over the issues you're having. I promise it's much the same over here, although mine are nearly 4 now. Still the tantrums catch me by surprise. Who knew?!?!

Oh yes I know this all to well! We've a two an...

2009-11-23T09:19:03.718-06:00

Oh yes I know this all to well! We've a two and half year old over here too. Want to send him over and we'll put them in a room together? Wait, that may not be a good idea.. Love that photo of you and him!

2009-11-23T08:29:29.731-06:00

The hair is beautiful. Great way to to fire you up, Ha, Ha :)
With our son we used potty training rewards to potty train. He loved pushing the button hearing he is a Big Boy and than he was able to open a door to find a candy surprise. You might want to check it out. www.pottytrainingrewards.com

2009-11-23T07:13:05.176-06:00

I love you hair!!!! I won't even comment on that other thing because I fear it is contagious and my son will catch whatever it is he has, lol

Oh my goodness. If you didn't put Little G'...

2009-11-23T06:46:30.591-06:00

Oh my goodness. If you didn't put Little G's picture in there, I would have thought FOR SURE that you were writing about Carter. We are so deep in the terrible twos I fear that we will never come out! I'm with you...PRAYING the 3s will get a little better!

2009-11-23T00:09:06.389-06:00

Your hair looks fab!

And isn't Little G a stinker! :-)

But seriously, he and Jackson are going head to head right now in the 2 year old crazy department...

J colored the top of my laptop with pen the other morning, was playing under the kitchen table and then stood up and hit his head, and then managed to spill his sippy cup a little and then slipped in it....and that was all in the time span of about 5 minutes.

OH, to have a 2 year old.

And yet, he's SO snuggly lately...and extra sweet. :-)
