dd turned 3 last week, started school nursery(only two partial seesions as yet) and loves it..talking about it all time and tells me to leave..loves it, moving house, but making it fun for her by asking what colours we are goingt o paint room and 'giving' her the dining room as her own playroom..keeping as much stress away from her as possible.
took her to large park today and museum, knew museum would be over her head so rushed round, got her face painted, took her down to river, took football to play..ALL she did was winge and complain
..she winged to play footbal..we did, she then said we were doing it wrong!, winged she wanted to go to park, then when we went, she winged she wanted to play football, boucy castle near park, so again..didnt want to go in park, but wanted to go on b.castle..large Q, so suggested we go in bigger park, lots of swings until b.castle empty, fine..then
..the swings werent high enough, the rocking animals didnt rock enough, we kicked the ball wrong when i suggested playing football again.aaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
gggggggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
dp picked her up(by this time she had been warned by both of us that if she continued this behaviour we would leave) and she screamed tears that she wanted to stay..by this point im actually wondering where my beautiful, kind, placid daughter has gone..dp, being useless at these things carried her out of park passed her to me and went into his own baby mode, helping matters no end
all the way home she was crying she didnt want to leave park and despite telling her a 100 times, wouldnt take in we were leaving because of her bahaviour..sorry this has turned out a bit of a long rant
got home, took her straight into bath, p.j's on(4.30pm), took her down stairs where she then started protesting she wanted cartoons on!
dp said no cartoon stonight because of way she behaved..she must have said 200 times but i want them on and would nottake in, she was not having cartoons becasue of this precise behaviour..dp in mood, dd making me pull my hair out..just dont know what to do with her..she has been this way for last 3-4 days and is normally(honestly) such a 'good' patient and kind child..i really dont want to be near her at the minute as she just wont listen as is being horrible..i must be going soo wrong somewhere?
