Terrible Twos

in Family

Wito’s 2nd birthday party is this Saturday, and I’m knee-deep in preparation. (You know, if “knee-deep” means watching Paula Deen and her sons make a mighty fine Banana Split Cake while filing my nails.)

Oh, and those Terrible Twos? They have officially made their appearance one week early.

Case in point #1:

What do you MEAN the carousel isn’t open yet? MY LIFE IS A HEAPING PILE OF DOG SHIT.

Case in point #2:

I’m not really fond of this drab wall color. Let me spruce it up a bit.

Send help.

    I’m just saying I was kind of into the cheesy meat thing the Deen boys made before the banana cake…but could Bobby have compared it to “goulash” ONE MORE time or was it just me?
    I know…random…

    It was way too easy to draw on the paper. In front of him. On his tray. I feel your pain.

    Just found your site – it’s so well designed! Anxious to learn more about you and your tribe. I have 3 boys – the youngest is 2. Oy vey!

    I marvel at your composure to let the drawing continue long enough to get a decent shot. I would have crapped a brick at that point. Although I am impressed that Wito separated his colors on the wall. A little OCD? The tantrum photo…hilarious! Not at the time I am sure, but that photo is awesome. And I agree, my life is a heaping pile of dog shit would be a hilarious t-shirt. Cafe Press????

    Maybe we should pit him and Stella (my 2-year old) together in a room and see who can make a bigger mess. I bet they’d have fun. In fact, how about using that as a theme for his birthday party? You’ll definitely be knee-deep then ;-)

    hate to say it, but his abstract on the wall looks a lot like John Lennon’s self-portrait. Maybe I’m just putting an uber-postiive spin on things! ;)

    I think by far the best part of that post is the fact you took the TIME to take those pictures of his behavior. Classic!

    i’m thinking you wont appreciate hearing how 2 is evil and 3 is worse.

    I don’t mean to be a downer, but the two’s? Nothing compared to the three’s…the three’s have been far worse!

    I can relate to the pictures with Wito and the crayons. Griffin took triple paste diaper cream (the thickest you can buy) and rubbed it all over our sage colored furniture…….oh and while I took a 30 second break to use the restroom. I thought I could get a break but he proved me wrong once again! That crap is hard to get off…..I’ve tried for weeks nows! Any suggestions?
    Happy Birthday to little Wito!
