Marcelus has been waking up early lately, his sleeping is off. I put him to bed at pretty normal times. Maybe he is trying to do away with naps but he has one just about every day, again lately the naps have been early because of his getting up early. He has been worse behavior wise because of his sleeping. This morning he was a complete...ugg...can't think of a good word, but he was horrible. I about strangled him as I am getting sleep but never feel like I have enough in the morning. He asks for a million things I think so he can just get me up. He used to do fine when he woke up early, he'd leave me alone but since it's every day now, he's bugging me so much for things he doesn't even end up wanting at all. He had 2 major time outs this morning BEFORE 8 AM. If I don't kill him before Phoenix arrives I think we'll be good to go. His sleeping is improving, even if his cycle or pattern or whatever you want to call it is off, it is improving, now if I can keep improving while getting him back ON track...he would behave much better. The more pregnant I get the more irritated I am and I'll have a much shorter fuse with him. I'm glad they don't go through the terrible two's when they're 10 because he is already stronger than me and physically he is a work out for me, he's a tough cookie and he's tough on me anyway.
On the other hand of all this, I am becoming a bit more of a push over the more pregnant I get because I'm tired, and I'm sick of behavior problems and I just want peace. Marcelus has had way too many marshmellows this morning...but do I care...NO, he's happy, I'm happy, and I don't have to fight him. I admit I would not normally give him handful after handful but I'm kind of at the end of my rope here.
So it's either strangle Marcelus because I'm at the end of my rope or become a complete push over because I'm at the end of my rope, there's really no in between for me right now. The marshmellows are gone now and it will be until Monday that I buy a new bag...thank goodness Shar will be home for the weekend!

I know exactly how you feel! There are some days that I just want to ship Rylee off to someone . Sometimes I feel like she knows that she can get to me and does it. My peace maker is her Curious George Movies. Ü
