Oh my goodness, Lila has been difficult today! Fussing and whining. Disobeying. Throwing things. Arguing. Changing her mind seventeen times with every decision. Asking a thousand questions. Refusing to be in a different room than me for even five minutes! I haven't even been able to sit here and type these few sentences in peace.
She was talking and asking questions and whining non-stop so that I can't concentrate. I had to get up once to verify whether or not she'd eaten the snack she claimed to have eaten so that she could have a jelly bean (she had not). I had to ask her to please go play in another room for a few minutes because she was literally standing in my armpit. (she didn't go to another room, but she did at least go to the other SIDE of this room.)
Yesterday, she fell asleep in the car on the way home from swim class. She slept 15 minutes, which means she wouldn't go to sleep when naptime came. I tried two different times and indulged her way too much because I wanted to take a nap too, but had no success. So she went all day yesterday with a 15 minute nap. Because she was so tired, she woke up four or five times during the night.
When she was nuts this morning, I figured it was from the lack of sleep. She tried to get out of her nap again today, but since she had not slept even 5 minutes, I insisted. After a long battle, I got her to sleep and she took a normal nap. This afternoon, she is still nuts. So she's either still not caught up on sleep or she's just generally insane. Either way, I'm glad it's Friday!

How dare you make such slanderous comments against such a sweet, helpful child. It almost makes me want to cry the way you have maligned her. Almost . . .
I seem to remember a little girl who hit all of her "cycles" about six months off. For example, she didn't get into her Terrible Twos until she was about two and a half. Maybe she's just a late bloomer, so to speak.
I'm so glad it's not just my toddler who can be difficult at times. 2 year olds are HARD!!
Regarding "Need to Vent", you ought to be pretty well steamed out by now!
Grammie thinks she is wanting her new baby brother to go back where he came from ;o)
