Lately Tempe has truly been a Wild Thing. She is into everything!!! Every time I turn my back, she is making another mess. Here are just a few of the things she has gotten into lately:
- There are big flower pots on the back patio. All that dirt is just too tempting for a little girl! Every chance she gets, she digs her hands down into the dirt, smears it all over her face, and even puts it in her mouth. Yuck!
- Yesterday she ripped Aunt Morgan's birthday poster in half (sorry, Morgan). Tempe had to help me tape it back together.
- If she ever gets into Corinne and Katelyn's room, we find her huddled in the corner stuffing Easter candy in her mouth (sorry, Corinne and Katelyn).
- Last night she was in Grandpa's office, and she pulled an ice cream wrapper out of the trash and dumped out all the red melted ice cream all over the carpet (sorry, Grandpa). Luckily it didn't leave a stain.
I just don't know what to do with her!! Time-outs don't seem to bother her--if I tell her she needs a time-out, she very calmly walks over to the door (her time-out spot), folds her arms, and sits quietly until I tell her to get up. I'm not sure how else to punish an almost 2-year-old... I think she is going to be the kid that says "That didn't hurt" if we ever spank her (just like Uncle Jonathon). Oh, the joys of having a toddler!!

It seems as though she may be hitting the TeRrIbLe 2's stage a bit early:) Hopefully this is just a phase and will pass soon. Good luck:) By the way, I went and picked up that infant sling...so now I just need your address and I will mail it to you.
Sorry to say but that is normal. Try time out. Even when curtis yells at Kennedy she just laughs.
