Rough Week

Filed Under Are you kidding me?, Into Everything, Two and a half years old | 2 Comments

I know I mentioned this on Facebook (what, you aren’t all friends with me on Facebook??) but last week Bailey and I had a really rough week. I just really don’t have the energy to chase her down as much as I need to when she starts getting into stuff or running away from me. She has also been taking advantage of the time that I am in the shower or getting ready. I leave the door open so she can always come find me… but she knows I can’t see her!

So last week while I was getting ready- one day she colored on the couch with markers. Thank God they were washable. Daddy left them where she could reach them. She has NEVER colored on anything other than her own skin before so I was really shocked. She also got into some of my greeting cards that I made and messed those up. Then another day, she got down the Sweet Pea soap from the guest bathroom and “washed” the couch. And another day, she washed the tv stand! I was thankful that we have black faux wood tv stands and glass coffee tables and stuff like that instead of super expensive heavy wooden furniture. At least it wipes down easily. Then another day last week she tore apart a book and shoved little spit wads of paper up her nose. I got to pick all of them out later for her.

This is why I worry about having two children.

    Honestly, that sounds pretty normal..lol. My girls are 3 years apart and I had THOUGHT that my oldest had gotten past the whole “helping” stage (that’s what she always called it) until one morning bright and early the baby woke up and my oldest daughter thought it would be a lovely idea to change her diaper and make her a bottle. So she climbed into the crib, pulled off the old diaper and threw it over the side (it landed wet side down of course). She then took a new diaper (oh yes, and used lots and lots and LOTS of powder) and did the best she could to get it on the little one. She then snuck into the kitchen and put ONE OUNCE of water into a bottle and 12 scoops of powder and then tried to feed it to the poor thing. Needless to say the baby screamed loud enough to wake me up and we had to have a little talk about “helping with the baby”. Eventually it all evens out somewhere though. You will do great, and so will the kids. :)

    As usual… Adam and Bailey would have A LOT of fun (causing mischief) together!!!

    It must be tough being 37 weeks pregnant and dealing with the mischief, though. Congrats on being “full term” by the way — so great! I’m sure everything will work out and Bailey will be the most fabulous — and cutest — big sister! =)
