oh no! we are 2 mos. behind you. what's happening?

gumiberg · November 2010

constant fighting...over EVERYTHING.

and since they are still not talking, they get real frustrated when i dont understand them and so when they are not fighting, they are screaming at me.

i can barely stand to be in the house. today we went for a long run, to two different parks and two different grocery stores.

luckily, i do work outside the home part-time so tomorrow morning i get a break. cannot wait.

i guess you have never seen a poll on here about the hardest age - b/c MANY people answer 12-18 mo being the hardest - including me... even with just ONE child that age I thoguht it was hard as hell.... now with 2 it's even more magical lol

my boys are just starting to get a LITTLE easier in some ways - but harder in others.... 2's and 3s are by no means easy- but i like them a lot more than 12-18mo.

It's a really hard age. Everyone says terrible twos, but when mine turned two, they seemed to turn a corner. They could communicate better, play independently better, it just seemed easier.

It will get better, promise!

I hope you're right!

Gumiberg, I feel ya. Around here the fighting and tantrums have really picked up. I've heard people say that around 18mos you can start to get a taste of what the terrible twos will be. I sure hope Goldie is right in our case!

I work PT too, but those days I go straight from babies all morning, to work, with no break. At least when I'm home all day with LOs I take a nap when they nap. It helps alot!

This is the reason I am glad I work. I love my girls but sometimes the fighting and crying gets out of hand. And now Lauryn started shoving Ava which is a not fun stage. We definitely have our good moments but the frustration is definitely hard to handle at times.
