"I do it!"

She's two now and according to her, she can do it!
Do what?
EVERYTHING!

It is making my life harder, more complicated and VERY FRUSTRATING.

This week she refuses to sit in her high chair because the big kids sit at the island. She can't SIT at the island cause she is not big enough to shovel the food in her mouth (or in her cause, in the vicinity of her mouth). So she stands. Our island is much taller than most counters and bars so the fall down would be pretty rough~ just ask Owen... and Nifae.

Don't try and help her get a tiny bite of dinner actually into her mouth cause, SHE DO IT!

A sweet cuddle session is quickly turned into a dangerous game of, "I can put Mommy's glasses on her head". Being poked in the eyeball and nostrils and ears is not my idea of fun.
All the while she is insisting, "I DO IT!"

Here is a more appropriate picture of what is really going on around here lately. Yes, that is a full blown temper tantrum. She is trying to get dressed and can not get the shirt on her head. She is yelling, "I DO IT!" over and over. All the while, all she is doing is thrashing around the floor with her head shoved in the arm of a shirt.

ANYWAY~ I am SOOO over the "I DO IT" stage. I know why it has to happen and I know to just ignore the temper tantrums and I get that it is just a phase... BUT I AM SOOOO OVER IT!!!


I DON'T DO IT!!!!
