MM Sorry to hear about all those funerals. .
Yes it was my birthday on Easter Saturday...I had a brilliant day thanks!
Re- discipline. DD2 is being very trying at the moment. I'm hoping she's just a bit over-tired, as she hasn't been having her daily nap with all that's been going on. She's such a feisty hooligan. She throws toys, DD1 (nearly 4yrs old) is at an age where she loves playing with lots of little things, i.e. all the little people are in a school, or all her cars are a car park. All very neat and in line with mummy's mild OCD (that's my girl!).DD2 keeps coming along and just swiping them all away...little monkey. There has been lots of naughty steppage!
Mealtimes also a bit trying. She has 3 mouthfuls then pushes the plate away demanding 'a treat!'....she doesn't get one unless she eats her dinner, so most nights she goes without. I'm suprised she hasn't cottoned on yet .
Having said all that, DD1 was very trying at the same age, and we just stuck to our guns, never gave in to her, and now she is an angel!! I have to keep looking at her to remind me that this is just a phase we have to go through, and if we stick with it, DD2 should end up like her lovely big sis. I hope that gives some comfort to you FML's with her first experience of terrible twos!!!
The plan is to start potty training at the end of this week when we are back home.
WARNING .
So, we're at superbro's.....since our last visit, he's had a jacuzzi bath installed in the guest bathroom. He's just brought me down a glass of red wine while the dinner finishes cooking .
It's very nice to have a break away!
Hope you are all well and not eating your body weight in chocolate like me (note to self, don't put all the weight on you just lost!!!).
