Its like she woke up planning to do everything she isn't supposed to, today, LOL.

When I say no to her, she normally stops what she is doing, but today she acts just absolutely DEVASTATED when I say no. She immediately starts crying and screaming and throws herself on the floor. Is this normal? She doesn't usually act like this, and I know she has been sick lately, but I dunno what is up with this!

I'm not saying no any differently than I usually do, and I know she knows what NO means. She's just unusually emotional and stubborn lately!!

She's about 22 months right now (just shy of 23 months). Dang it, my little niece is going to be 2 next month?!?!?!? No way, not happening........

Jackie012007 replied: LOL. She is 14 months today!!!

No, maybe she's just a bit more dramatic because she's not feeling well.
Sammy started throwing tantrums like that two weeks after he turned one. Abby didnt start with the tantrums until around 14-16 months old. Unfortunately,,,I've noticed that she picks up alot of her behavior from Sammy.

Maybe there's something in the air - perhaps a full moon? Because Sam and Abby fought all morning - they literally drove me nuts! I actually ended up putting them down an hour early for their naps so I wouldnt hurt them.

LOL NOOOOO... I'm still supposed to have 10 more months until the "terrible twos"!!!!! No fair!
