aka Reasons My Preschooler Is Losing Their Shit

I'll go first:

For A: The picture on the Christmas tree box showed a decorated tree with a pile of presents underneath. There were no presents in the box with the tree.

T: I will not let him eat a tube of toothpaste.

[bliz1712]

H: She has to go to bed

I woke her up.

She can't open a present every day and they are teasing her underneath the tree.

She doesn't want to go to DC.

E: I put her in her crib

I had to leave the room/house/DC

She doesn't want to sit in her high chair, or the booster seat.


E & H: they can't have a cookie for breakfast

[jennmm]

Because I suggested she eat dinner. I'm such a bitch like that.

[cbear]

E: she doesn't want to eat dinner because it is too tasty

V: I said that word no

Lord help me

[mightybee]

Because I wouldn't let him take a power cord outside last night so he could reconfigure the Christmas lights.

Because I made his leftover smoothie in popsicles.

[jennmm]

Also because I wouldn't let her wear shorts when it's 40 degrees outside.

I was going to say the same thing.  He cracks me up!

[snickers4everyone]

Because I told her she could go to gymnastics with grandma and she was afraid she would miss me.

because I told her she could stay home if she preferred.

Because I wouldn't open the sun roof to let the rain into the car.

[trixi282]

Because I asked her to get socks... she didn't want to wear socks with her boots.

Because I put toothpaste on her toothbrush and it got smushed into the bristles.

I kind of want to send him all my mis-matched strand of Christmas lights I don't want anymore. Think if all the J12ers did that what Mightbee's house would look like. She would be on that crazy show next year with the Griswold lighting house competition with Dylan at the helm.

He would die if he received that package. Seeiously, if we got him extension cords and power strips for Christmas we'd be parents of the year in his eyes.

I was pretty impressed with the logic he was using to convince me to let him use the power strip outside. I keep it on my side of the bed because I have too many things to plug in at night. He said that I could plug 2 in on poppy's side of the bed and 2 in on my side and then I wouldn't need the power strip. I thought, hey he has a good point...

Send me all of your unwanted lights!

I hope I'm translating this right, because it was just too much...

She's crying because she pooped and there's only one turd. She's worried it'll be lonely and that it won't have any friends, but she can't poop any more...

Dead.

barefoot84 you win! Omg.

[cbear]

She has 50292027393 stuffed animals in her bed with her (and she knows when one is missing) but the second our cat tries to sleep at the end of her bed she wakes the whole house up screaming "get out, leave me alone!"

I may have just had a heart attack at 5:00am...

[junkytrunk]

We had a rough night over here.

He woke up crying at 545 because his stars were off and he didn't want to turn them on, he wanted me to turn them on. That was a long ordeal.

Then at 645 he woke up crying because he didn't want the sun to come up.

Sorry kid, can't do anything about that.

[vanessalc]

Because I made him put on pants.

[trixi282]

Because she doesn't want to wear her fleece pajama pants... because they ride up when she lays down. She wants to wear leggings to bed...

Also because she picked out t-shirt pajamas, but then when it was time to go to bed she wanted long sleeves.

Oh the pj situations! I won't even get started on that one.

[sarahandeddie]

Because her chicken nuggets weren't frozen.

Because the animals on her soother rotate clockwise and she wanted them to go the other way.

[roo1582]

Because we got my dog a new bed.
Because said bed wasn't purple.
Because the lid to her sippy cup wasn't the same color as the cup.
Because Andrew smiled at her.
Because her cut is all healed up.

[barefoot84]

roo1582, That picture is adorable!! Also, I'm sure Tumaini will also cry when her "cut" has healed. It's this tiny scratch on her foot, and she'll only wear one sock because she wants to be able to see her cut and to show it to everyone.

[summergirl1211]

We had a water softener installed yesterday, which caused air in our pipes. Riley lost her damn mind when the toilet started banging and the sink started spitting. Of course now she's terrified to use the toilet, won't use the sink, and absolutely refuses to go in the bathroom.

[jennmm]

After she rejected a long sleeved shirt, I put the short sleeve shirt of her choice on her. Then she got mad because her shirt has short sleeves. WTF, kid.

[starfishy]

My list would be shorter if I just told you what he's not crying about.

Ugh on the topic of shirts:
J has not been wanting to wear her fleece in the car... fine (heck it's safer without any coat, right?).  Anyway, so the other day it was butt cold, I had already started the car when I put E in, and J refused to wear her coat, she took it off and climbed in, wearing a short sleeved shirt.  I told her it was cold and she should wear it, or at least put it on backwards so her arms didn't get cold... she refused.  We were only going to my moms (a 10 minute drive) and about 3 blocks away from home she has a fit about how her arms are cold and she was mad at me... me??  I told her she should have worn her coat like i told her, and that she had the right to be upset, but she shouldn't be mad at me, she should be mad at herself for taking her coat off.  

Basically her arm was touching the cold fabric of her carseat which is what was cold, her whole arm wasn't cold.  Lord have mercy... she then told Mamaw that she was mad at me because she didn't wear her coat and her arm was cold on her carseat.  **eyeroll**
