TERRIBLE TWOS ARE HERE!

Okay so I'm sure everyone that has a child is reading the title and laughing like crazy because they know exactly what I'm going through, right?! Wyatt's behavior has progressively gotten more crazy and chaotic as the days go by. This weekend we pretty much did nothing but scream, try to bite, throw stuff (that shouldn't be thrown), and cry. We are doing the whole time-out thing, talking to him and rationalizing his actions to him and we've even spanked him. Yes, sometimes it is warranted. We prefer not to spank and really use the time-out and talking to him 90% of the time. I don't know what to do and I'm know this is just a phase and will pass but strongly considering taking up a new habit to help me get through this! ;) We have also entered the phase of not being able to take him out to eat with us as well. It seems like every time we have gone out to eat in the past couple months that he acts terrible and does the above actions. So I'm pretty sure our days of eating out are few and far between until he can act appropriately. Lord help me!!

  1. Sending you good luck vibes!!!! Clark seems like he acts like that some times, and it's usually because he is sick. Hopefully Wyatt will stop soon. Good luck. I think we have entered the going out in public stage too. Although last week, he did great because I took him for a walk when he got squirmy waiting for food or waiting for adults to finish eating.
    Hope it gets better soon!
