Our middle child is 3, need I say more? The answer is yes!
"E" is always up to something new and "interesting". Today alone he managed to get in enough trouble after finding some paints. He wanted to paint a picture (and the floor), later he opened his water bottle during nap time and got his entire bed wet, took the mattress off, all the sheets, blankets, mattress cover, and pillow off the bed and proceeded to stack everything, including his beanbag chair. This is when I walked in... ER visit averted!
He is also being potty trained... for 2 months now... some days he does a perfect job (as long as it only involves going #1), and then there are days like yesterday. Yesterday we were home all day so we put him in underwear and his clothes and we (well my husband) changed him 5 times.
We have been patient with him, rewarded, bribed, done stickers, gifts, candy, underwear, underwear with plastic pants, pull-ups, used a training potty, used the "big boy potty". He really DOESN'T CARE. If preschool wasn't around the corner I wouldn't be so determined, but he MUST go to preschool (for his sake).
Sorry for the ranting, this potty training thing is driving me crazy. Our first son was trained in a week, through the night! I'm not comparing them, well maybe a little.
Prayers and hair dye welcomed!
