And then my toddler ...

[TheEleventhHour]

Can we just all come together and share some ridiculous things our toddlers have been doing lately? So I don't feel so alone in the fact that I say "OMG WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" multiple times a day?

DS got this really cute Melissa & Doug tangram puzzle set for Christmas. I just caught him "coloring" with the pieces on the dining room wall. Which normally wouldn't be an issue because it's just a puzzle piece right? Nope, the color from the pieces is actually coming off on the wall! So now there are bright yellow marks on my red dining room walls.

Sigh.

My child, who has long quit putting things in her mouth, bit off the tip of a red marker while my back was turned. It looked like blood was pouring from her mouth.

R has decided she can sit at the dining table without her booster (she can't but it's funny to watch her try) but she insists on taking all her ninis (blankets) and mimis (minnies) with her. So she'll go over there and realize she is missing one thing and get back down like oh more mimi more nini and keep going back and forth.

She also needs all of this stuff in whatever room I'm in. If I'm cooking she'll try and drag it all in there like oh hey mom were in here now? Ok!

DS has decided he'd like to start putting everything under the sun in his mouth again. I thought we were far past that phase!

My daughter thinks everything is a jungle gym. EVERYTHING. She stacks toys to make "stepping stools" to climb up higher onto things. Like stacking her little people princess castle with her piano.

Jack has always been a little slow in the physical department, only just now learning to jump and just beginning to run everywhere! So he basically has stopped walking around the house and just jogs everywhere now.
Problem is he is never looking straight ahead and in the last week he has run into walls, table corners, stair railings, me, the dog, etc.... He has hurt himself too many times this week to list.
So yesterday, after he ran into the stair railing-hard, I stopped him and explained to him that he needs to be more aware of his surroundings and look up, not down when he is walking (jogging). So he jogs away from me after the convo, with his head up, looking at the ceiling. OMG!!! Parenting conversation fail at its finest!

DD had a major melt down the other day because she was carrying a sucker around & the dog licked it. I put it in the trash & she started crying "I wanna lick it too."

Wakes me up from a dead sleep at 5 am this morning but getting inches from my face and saying "HI Mom, Oh hi!"

Lol. This is pretty much how DD wakes me up every day. It's so jarring! Or she pokes me in the eye...

Well this just happened...Henley climbed on to the dining room chair and then the table at the other end from where DH and I were sitting. She stood up and said I have to go pee pee. I jumped up ran over to her just in time for her to pee on the table! While DH was eating. Thank God we have a long table and it was no where near us but wtf!

Molly has decided my half of the bed is really hers so there's been that struggle.

Shes also just now started really throwing tantrums. Toodays was because her car went down the wrong side of the track.

Another was me putting cream on her legs that was 30 minutes of tossing all over kicking and screaming
