Whoever came up with the phrase "Terrible Two's" apparently never had a three year old! Kaleb is literally hell on wheels, and not in a good way. He wakes up disgruntled and grunting his disgruntlement at everything from his breakfast choices to clothing choices. Demanding to watch Oso and refusing to get ready to leave the house to pick up Zac from school. Immediately when we walk into the house he takes his shoes and socks off, which wouldn't be so bad if when we attempted to leave the house again he didn't go into his sock drawer for a new pair of socks then throw a fit when I told him to put on the previously worn socks; oh who and I kidding, it is that bad because he refuses to put the shoes back on, and no, they are not too small, I've checked, he has 4 pairs of shoes to choose from and refuses to put any of them on. He refuses to wear a hoodie or jacket, if I can wrestle him into one as soon as we get into the car he takes it off. He stomps around stores just mad at the world because he's not home playing with his toys or running around the back yard. He sulks when we are in public. If there is a wall in reach he will kick the living daylights out of it if he is not currently getting his way (and if he's been told no at all that day, that qualifies as him not currently getting his way). If we go out to eat and Zac has a crayon color he wants he will throw the worlds largest fit until he gets his way. Kaleb is not a spoiled kid, he didn't act this way a couple months ago. It's like he hit his head one day and this is how he woke up. I just want to know what happened to my sweet little boy? Zachary never went through a phase like this. He had and still has tantrums but not with the added attitude thrown in.
What really gets me is that he can be playing and sweet as can be one minute then screaming, kicking, pinching mad the next with absolutely no warning. It's like there is a switch and I can't find it.
