Diva update

The situation with the big bed is not good. Letitia has been waking up in the middle of the night disorientated and crying. We have had sleepless nights since we transition her to the big bed.

She usually wakes up at about 4am screaming, "Mama........ah...... Papa.....ah.................." and insist that we sleep with her or take her over to our room. This is really tiring. Just when I thought I could finally sleep through the night. SUCKS! BIG time.

She has also started co-ordinating and picking out her own outfits. Every piece of clothing you put on her, needs her approval. If she doesn't like what she sees....... she will go," No, no, no, no, no, no........." followed by tears. Same goes for the shoes. And after you let her wear what she wants she will run up to her Dad and ask, " Nice?" But I must say she does have relatively good taste for a 20 month old. The outfit she is wearing in the picture was picked out by her.

Talk about Diva. I have never met a 20 month toddler co-ordinate their own outfits. Actually she is more than a diva. She is RHR Princess Letitia. She refuses to walk on grass and sand. If you put her down on a grass patch she will be immobilised. If you put her in a sand pitch she will scream if there is even one grain of sand in her shoes. She will require washing immediately if not she will refuse to walk and needs to be carried.

Not to mention she picks who she wants to feed and bathe her. She also indicates to you very clearly which bathroom she wants to use for her bath. She will remind you if you forget to brush her teeth...........

Now I am starting to comprehend the term "terrible two's"............. the first 2 years were a ride in the park compared to what I am going through right now.
