yip.. all normal for a toddler. Add a demanding baby brother to the mix and you get 1X bipolar kid and 1X strung out mommy. Pias last blog post..My lens has a mind of its own…

There have been many times I've wondered if my son is normal!! The emotional roller coaster he is on sometimes must be called Devil's Revenge or something. Now that he has left the Terrible Two's behind him and only has Sometimes Terrible Threes, it's soooo much better! He stopped napping a long time ago, but I can definitely notice if bedtime has crept too late because his behavior goes out the window, so I relate to what you mean. It has been a long time since his bedtime has been before 8 or 8:30 p.m. and the other night he was asleep before 8 p.m., so I know he was exhausted. He was such a pleasure the next day it made me want to put him to bed at 5pm the next day. LOL Unfortunately, it just won't work...but don't get me talking about sleep b/c I won't stop. That's what my blog is for, right? :p At least we know we aren't alone in this! Nicoles last blog post..Baby Temperament and Sleep Series: Mood

Mim said it perfectly. That is what I did with my kids. Bedroom time outs were the best and believe it or not, I still use them on occasion. Even with a 15 year old. Jenn FLs last blog post..Men .. Redux

OMG I just had that thought the other day. One day Kaiya went from laughing, to crying, to peeing in about 8.5 seconds. The sad thing is each emotion/action has the same grimace so I didn't know what the heck was going on she just kept grimacing. I'm thinking from ages 2-3 and 13-20 they should live with grandparents.

No toddler tantrum experience for me yet but they are both so damn adorable so isn't the bi-polar thing forgivable? LOL. talinas last blog post..36 week progress, practice labor? We’ll see!

I think all non-napping two year olds are psychotic. If she's till doing those things at age 8, I'd start to get really worried. xo Kats last blog post..Me? Diplomatic? Hahahahahaaaaaaaaaaa!

I've had a few days with The Gambit like that recently. I'm hoping it's because of his cold... I know you say naps don't work, but is she still in a crib or a playpen? If so, can you simply leave her in there for a few hours until she calms down? Eventually she has to stop screaming, and sheer boredom might carry her off to sleep. Especially if you put a space heater in the room and bake her at about 80 degrees. Not that I've ever done this. Robin G.s last blog post..Hope Springs the Turtle (part one)

OH, and he naps and it DOES NOT HELP. He always wakes up crankier than when he went down, so don't feel too bad about the not napping. It probalby wouldn't be much better, although you would get a little peace and quiet. Jennis last blog post..Woe is Me
