46 reasons why my 3-year old is freaking out

[MrsK]

K1 is extremely pissed at me right now because I won't let him climb on the coffee table and then jump off to the sofa.

ETA: And yesterday, he was freaking out because Team-Mommy-and-K2 beat Team-Daddy-and-K1 in the contest to see who could get the child strapped into his carseat the fastest. He was so angry that he even said he was going to tell his girlfriend what I did.

And now, he's pissed because I refuse to make blue chocolate dinosaurs for dinner. (No, that's not a *thing* we do. He just made that up.)

[MrsK]

I'm sure the rest of you have drama to add. . .

Today, the 3yo is freaking out because his sticky bar (cereal bar) is broken and I won't put it back together.

And the 19mo had a 45 minute freak out that began in the grocery store and continued through the drive home and lunch because I wouldn't let him sit in the car portion of the shopping cart any more after he bit his brother.

We've been putting dd in a pull-up the past two days that she's been sick. Yesterday in the car:

Dd: what am I wearing?
Me: what?
Dd: panties or diapers?
Me: diapers.
Dd: that's good. I went peepee in them.

She is hysterical! How is Pamela?

two years ago, DD received a baby doll set for Christmas and decided to call the baby Dorothy. This year, MIL gave her a very similar doll again. Again, she decided to call the new doll Dorothy. MIL also have her a light up pillow pet that is shaped like a unicorn (the first attempt at a name was "Horny"). Apparently, through no urging on my part, Horny has a new moniker. She is now,Dorothy. (This is always pronounced Do-ro-thy, like Auntie Em says it when they are standing outside the storm cellar door.)

That's really funny!

Our girls would get along! Did I tell you when dd was once trying to fall asleep, there were a ton of sirens going by. She asked me what was going on, and I said "maybe a fire truck, or a police car going to an emergency." And she goes "ahhh, ok, something horny."

What is up with that word that has parents in stitches?

. That's really funny.

My dd just tried to feed me one of her boogers and said "open wide!" I said no, it belongs in a tissue, and then go wash your hands, etc etc. (to her it sounds like "blahdiblah.") Of course, she then tries to wedge my mouth open and yells "open!!! I'm a doctor!!"

Because suddenly he likes pooping in the potty (Yay! Yay! Yay!!!) but he's out of poop.

[L.Jane]

because his sister got to get out of the car first.

These are cracking me up. I've ruined my 21 month old's life by getting him new shoes and by not letting him drive the car home from the grocery store. Nothing like wrestling your child WWF style while he screams "Owen drive da car" over and over.

Because there is glitter IN her cowboy boot. Full on tantrum at 7:23 this morning. It's time for fruit salad.

(He's not 3, but...)

"I do! Eat eat!"
"Let's put on your bib, then you can eat." (We do this at every meal).
"Ahhhhhhhhhh! No no no!" *sobbing*
"Okay, no eat."
"EEEEEEEEEEEEAT! Ahhhhhhhhh!"
"Bib?"
*cries throughout the entire bib process, stops crying instantly when he sees food*

Me: I think you should try to poop on the potty before we leave the house.
Dd: (blank look)
Me: It looks like you have to poop.
Dd: I'm just gonna fart. Mama, I promise.
Me: (Cleaning poop).

[HouseofWool]

I love Miss M!

[alison]

Dd running up to me with something in her hand.

"Mama, will you pleasure me?"



"Erhm, pleasure you?!!!...."

"Yes!"

"Oh! You have a tape measure. MEASURE you!"
