Brenna will be 3 in a week and has entered a very unpleasant stage of life. All of a sudden (literally over night!) she's become demanding, aggressive, and VERY whiney!
She's forgotten how to ask nicely for anything ... it's demanded and then when you don't react immediately she becomes a whiney, blubbering mess that you can't even understand. She grabs things from other kids at the daycare and yells in their faces. I honestly don't know what to do with her. I'm not putting up with any of it ... she gets a smack on the butt or plopped down in time out every time ... but it doesn't seem to be getting better.
I just have to keep reminding myself that this is just a phase.
Oh and I can't believe I almost forgot ... She's NOT sleeping! I put her in bed and she gets right back up. Some nights she just plays in her bed and others she cries and attempts to come to my room over and over. Last night she was up until 1:30 am before finally crashing! Mommy is sleepy today.

If it is a lil 3yr old attitude then I hope it improves for ya-I always tell people that the 'terrible twos' are nothing-it's the 3's that are rough!LOL!
