A Day In The Life Of A Toddler

Posted on March 28, 2011 Written by Tonya

  1. He doesn’t want to have his diaper changed.
  2. He wants to pull on the blinds.
  3. He doesn’t want to put his shoes on.
  4. He wants to play in mom’s nightstand drawers.
  5. He wants to take trains with him, he doesn’t want to carry them.
  6. He doesn’t want to participate in music class, he wants to go to the aquarium.
  7. He doesn’t want to sit in the grocery store cart, he wants to push it.
  8. He wants to play with the cars at the pharmacy.
  9. He doesn’t want to leave the pharmacy.
  10. He doesn’t want to sit in his car seat.
  11. He wants to watch TV.
  12. He doesn’t want to take his shoes off.
  13. He wants his sippy cup with the top off.
  14. He doesn’t like getting wet.
  15. He wants the whole thing, not just a small bite.

How many temper tantrums can one child have a day? It’s only 4:30 and I’m still counting…

Needless to say, it’s been a rough day.

    Ugh…. I hear you on this one! We're having a veggie eating battle of wills today. He's just as stubborn as I. This is going to be a problem.

    Oh my! That's what it's all about and it seems to go on and on and on!!!! When they are 3/4 they want to choose the clothes they are going to wear to school! My 4 year old has a tantrum if I don't chose the right color! Good luck Mama!

    Yikes! This does sound like a rough day indeed. Keep it together till his bed time and then enjoy a glass of wine and/or a cold beer. Perhaps, even take a bath which I know you aren't really a fan of but they totally mellow me out every time. I hope tomorrow is better. : ) Let me know if you need me to come rescue you or Lucas! Haha! XOXO

    Today we also had #1,3,4,7,10,11,12, and multiple #15's. The rest were close variations. Just poured myself a glass of wine, hope you did too. Cheers!
