I've had many, many experiences with meltdowns, which lead to double meltdowns (the second kid), and then lead to triple meltdowns (me this time). The best advice I can give is to try your BEST to be calm, not yell Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04339037022569298699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105002271819423204.post-55127749022788880022009-06-15T21:35:30.188-04:002009-06-15T21:35:30.188-04:00My daughter's terrible two's started at 18...My daughter's terrible two's started at 18 months.

She used to throw temper tantrums just like that at that age. I have a picture of her all red-faced stomping her foot because she didn't get her way, at our house in Loma Linda and she was 18 mo. when we moved, so I know she was younger than that! The good news is: she turned out just fine, and she doesn't throw fits anymore! :)Rachaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00992203896914180674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105002271819423204.post-85576685406608172052009-06-15T20:28:02.258-04:002009-06-15T20:28:02.258-04:00I've heard that the terrible twos actually sta...I've heard that the terrible twos actually start around 18 months... sorry to say...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08414369291083857692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105002271819423204.post-1965147368274910942009-06-15T19:35:22.574-04:002009-06-15T19:35:22.574-04:00I'm always dreaming up something...I'm always dreaming up something...Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14817031631517868818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105002271819423204.post-72919327077860213682009-06-15T19:34:22.265-04:002009-06-15T19:34:22.265-04:00Elle J,

My new quest is a new deck with an outdoor pizza oven, a fire pit and some nice patio furniture. A place where I can hang out with the kids during the day.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14817031631517868818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105002271819423204.post-7048663960490469322009-06-15T19:11:18.923-04:002009-06-15T19:11:18.923-04:00Awwww ... pour little guy.

Unfortunately, that part will never change regardless of age. I think you did fine, glad you still got to enjoy your swim time. <br /><br />And speaking of swim ~ any updates on your prior pool quest?Elle Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01506931705691712594noreply@blogger.com
