I may not make it to see Dane turn 3. I am definitely in the middle of the TERRIBLE twos. Dane has decided that he knows exactly what he wants and he knows when he wants it and if you don't comply he will let you know about it. Pretty much anywhere we go we are THAT parent who has the screaming, fit throwing, kicking, kid. Lovely right? I this is totally age appropriate but man it is rough. The biggest fight is usually over what he wants to watch on tv. He is over Sesame Street, Word World, and Sid the Science Kid. If I turn those on he says "NO WATCH! NO NO". The new favorite is Dora and Diego. He usually likes to switch back and forth between the two. It is a good thing I am here to serve him all day long. On a positive note he can be so sweet and loving and he is such a wonderful brother. Of course there are those times that he takes her toys and pushes her over but for the most part he is so attentive to her.
Every day his language skills get better and better. It is already at the point where you have to watch what you say because the other day I said "what the heck:" and sure enough he blurted it right out too. He also likes to tell me "no way". Jacob and I tried to figure out where he came up with that and found out it was from his Nana. The other day he was watching Diego and the rescue pack said "tell Diego he needs a boat" then out of Danes mouth word for word he said "you need a boat". I was amazed how he is comprehending these days. One day you can't understand them and then the next they are putting small sentences together.
The other day Jacob was about to change Brynnas diaper and he told Dane to go get one of her diapers and a few minutes later he comes out carrying a huge package of them. We couldn't help but laugh at him it was so cute.
