Veda is almost three!

The very last thing I want to do right now is a post about Veda. That is probably the worst mom-thing I could say! Boy is she tough. And she has been getting out of bed over and over for the past hour and a half. Waking up Quinn, begging for more water/blankies/babies, more blankets, less blankets, socks on/off. Plus she bit me today... not once or twice but THREE times. Talk about the terrible threes.... she is definitely making me learn some patience. Or rather, question if I have any patience left at all. 

Despite the hard times I have with her lately, she is an absolute doll. She can be so sweet and kind and loving. She loves to snuggle and be held. She is spunky and funny and full of life and makes our lives complete. We love her dearly. (And I'll love her even more tomorrow after I've had a break from her for a few hours!)

Happy almost-Birthday Veda!! And here begins the month of birthdays at our house!

It's a tough age! I remember Amelia was ready at the beginning of 3, but then the tough stage caught up with us. It's just a stage, that's what gets me through! Abd she is sure cute, that helps too.

hahahahaha. I'm glad to hear she isn't perfect. children that cute need some spunk! I hated three with Norah, but it's been fine with Scarlett. Kids! Why are they all sooooo different?!?!

Happy belated Birthday Veda! You and Grace would be great friends...you seem to have similar temperaments! Good luck Amber! Grace is 4 and I am still waiting for her "toughness" to subside. Ellie's did at 4 1/2, so I have hope!

Amber! I was happy to see that you haven't been blogging much lately because that means I haven't missed much :) But ironically, Katie just sent me this link http://www.thehonesttoddler.com/2014/03/how-to-put-toddler-to-bed-in-100-easy.html a couple days ago. Have you seen it?? I've been feeling exactly the same as you lately about the terrible-3's and sleeping habits. This post made a traumatic situation slightly more humorous :) Enjoy.
