Gabrielle isn't two yet but doing some of the same things, especially meltdowns over being told 'no'.<br /><br />She also tells off all of her toys, friends, the dog and cats! She will say everything we say to her. Even last night I was in her room and she went to the lounge not before telling me to 'stay there' and shaking her finger at me at the same time lol! I am renaming her 'boss'.<br />]]>

(his nanas and the cats get it alot as well and dh and I).  I think I used the word too much when we started the naughty spot!  We actually don't use it now, as everytime we threatened him with it, he choose to go and sit there rather than do what he didn't want to do, so it wasn't really working!]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong>Author:</strong> <a href="https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/member_profile.asp?PF=245">Nikki</a><br /><strong>Subject:</strong> 27503<br /><strong>Posted:</strong> 23 July 2009 at 9:55pm<br /><br />Oh no - big hugs to you all! <img border="0" src="https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/smileys/smiley31.gif" border="0"> <br /><br />Makes me feel so much better about Jake (haha) - hes not bad compared to most I guess!!  But does have awesome language (was putting 2 words together at 16mths) so he can explain what he wants (just doesn't like the answer sometimes!) and still sleeps 2-3.5 hours most days which helps.<br /><br />To those expecting no 2 right when they turn 2 (Morgan was born 5 days after his b'day) I have found Jake a little more "temperamental" but his behaviour hasn't gone downhill too much - and he is definitely not taking anything out on her (seems very happy about having a baby sister), hes just generally more difficult.  But its hard to say if thats cos DH has been primarily looking after him (I had c section) or cos hes got chickenpox or just turned 2 or Morgan arriving ... or all of the above!<br /><br />Although his tantrums aren't much worse - he is definitely losing it alot more over nothing recently and whining all the time.  Meltdown is way faster.  And dinner is a battle since he decided a couple of months ago not to eat meat anymore (but thats been going on for a while now!)  and we have the indecisiveness too .... wants it, doesn't want it, wants it.... you sit there, no I'm sitting there etc etc. <img border="0" src="https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0"> ]]>

He asked for dinner so I heated up his spaghetti that he refused to eat last night (he normally loves it) and he refused to eat it tonight as well. So I told him eat it or go to bed and here we are. <br /><br />He also just went in time out 5 times for refusing to pick up the fridge magnets that he had thrown everywhere.<br /><br />Ah it was all going so well until 5pm. This is what happens on the days that he doesn't nap, which is most days now<img border="0" src="https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0"> ]]>

Mine stomps off to her room slams the door and hides out in her closet <img border="0" src="https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0"> thought thats what a teenager does.  And I have to stop myself from laughing at it sometimes cause its quite funny really (but not funny all at the same time).<br /><br />Elle still has a big day sleep - usually a good 2 hours (thank god!).  <br /><br />I do find she is worse when she is tired - or hyped up by her father<img border="0" src="https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0"> .]]>

Also her attention span is slowly getting longer and longer and she can now spend ages playing with her duplo or her little peoples dollhouse (more imagination play), so I think that is also helping because she doesn't get as bored. </P><P align=left>Luckily she still has 2-3 hr sleeps everyday, so doesn't get as tired (when she only sleeps for an hr at daycare, her behaviour defintely gets worse in the early evening). </P>]]>

Spencer is just starting simple sentences so hopefully as this improves he can tell us what he wants/what is upsetting him and that will help.<br />His food intake is pretty good as most foods are banned because of allergies, plus I try to be preservative, flavouring, colouring free for all of us so even the naughty food I buy is quite good.<br /><br />I think tiredness is another issue here as when he is well rested things go a lot better but he quite often doesn't have an afternoon nap for days at a time and then gets really really overtired and grumpy and will have a big catch up nap. Like Wednesday he had 3 hours and yesterday he had two so hopefully today he will be in a good mood....fingers crossed]]>

She had become a right terror (you know - the kids you look at in shops and hope yours don't become!) in the past 5 or so months.  We are now getting comments about how well behaved and sweet she is.  I think it is a combination of much more speech coming in, we have cut out all artificial colours and most rubbish food and we are just generally being more strict on her of late.  She has really responded to everything and (touch wood) we really seem to be coming out the other end of the real 'terror' behaviour<img border="0" src="https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0"> ]]>

I swear sometimes he gets up and must think "what can I destroy today?" and other days he thinks "wonder if I can make mummy snap by 9am?"<br /><br />The throwing drives me absolutely insane. Have decided to now confiscate anything he throws and then put them all back after he's gone to bed, otherwise he will have no toys after a couple a days. Hopefully it works, cos time out doesn't seem to be cutting it on it's own. He use to only throw as part of a tanty but now he just does it cos he wants to. He has balls he is allowed to throw as well and that use to work but not anymore.<br /><br />We just had a great tantrum free lunch though so that's awesome.]]>

My favourite is when he comes in lips puckered for a kiss and then either headbutts me or slaps me straight in the face. He has a tooth mark in his head from last nights attempt, sadly it seemed to hurt me more than him, I was actually worried my tooth was gonna fall out cos it hurt that much and cos he hit my crown so not exactly the most stable of teeth to start with.<br /><br />And one last thing is his constant change mindedness. "Please sit down" so I put him on the chair 'please get down" so I get him off the chair, "please sit down" "please get down""please sit down" "please get down""please sit down" "please get down""please sit down" "please get down" <br />It drives me absolutely cookoo bananas. I suppose I should be happy he says please<img border="0" src="https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0"> ]]>
