It's just been one of 'those' days

Can I just crawl back in bed and sleep the rest of the day away? Then wake up to a spotless house, angelic Toddler, smiling Baby, breakfast in bed, and a good book to read in the tub? Yeah, probably not.

Toddler sure is on one this week. He's had more timeouts, sendings to his room, spanks, and talking-to's in the last few days then he normally gets in a month. I think he's been storing up his naughtiness to use on me on a day that Baby is cranky from shots, Little Baby won't eat or sleep much, and I can barely get around cuz my knee hurts.

Today I've had to deal with him peeing on the floor repeatedly, helping Baby get his first fall down the stairs (he's fine thankfully), coloring with permanent marker on himself and Baby and the table and coffee table, woke the babies from naps early, and made a ton of messes. I can't ake any more terrible twos! Someone please tell me 3 is better!

Now Toddler is napping, but the 2 babies are screaming so I keep going back and forth consoling them. Ugh, I neep a nap!

I'm am so so sorry. I'd need a nap too! I love the thought of your very first paragraph. Oh how would it be! I hope you can get that nap. *hugs*

Unfortunately, it's been my experience that 3 is NOT better :( Maybe for Toddler it will be though :) (((hugs))) what a day!

Don't tell me that Dawn! I want to be deluded! You need to tell me that it only gets better from here on out and the worst is behind me :D LOL

Kara- I have to tell you that for me 3 was worse than 2. I am sorry he is acting up, it is hard. but it does get better

Yeah I thought three was worse too. But, can I just tell you I hate twos too! I want to join you in that first paragrah. Can I do that tommorrow too? Probably not. Hang in there!

Oh hun, I hope you are in bed sleeping right now. It is so hard to remember the fun, easy days when your have 3 upset little-ones running around, crying, and causing trouble. Although I only have one to deal with now, I will be in a simmilar situation in about a month.
