They're Here!

They've been knocking on the door for a while now, but I think that the terrible twos have arrived at our house. Noah is still easier than Lily was, but his attitude has not been good lately. On Monday he threw two different breakfasts on the floor. The english muffin with peanut butter wasn't so bad, but I don't think Amanda appreciated the small bowl of cheerios.

The Pook is turning into a little person and he is "announcing his presence with authority," to borrow a term from Nuke LaLoosh. He likes to say "no" a lot now too. He is spending time-out time in his crib now. His little hand gets slapped from time to time as well. Amanda finds herself counting to 3 a lot.

We knew that this day would eventually arrive. We'll get through it, but it won't be a lot of fun. Fortunately, we're veterans. The other good thing is that he is still very sweet in general, but the sour times are just becoming more frequent than we'd like.
