terrible two

It’s official, we’ve hit the terrible twos! My once perfect little angel now makes EVERYTHING a battle.  She’s very independent, and one of her popular phrases is “I dude it.” or “Lily dude it.” (Lily do it.)  She used to be such a good eater and she is now becoming more and more picky.  She has to have dip, sauce or cheese on everything.  Today after making a scrambled egg (with cheese for good measures) and peas for lunch, she refused to eat any of it except a few pieces of stray cheese on the plate.  So in steps Teddy, her beloved friend. Teddy would eat a bite and tell Mommy that he wanted Lily to have a bite. Well, after going back and forth between Teddy and Lily, before we knew it the entire egg and peas were gone!  Oh, the games we mommy’s will play! I have to remind myself that this stage will soon pass, or so I can hope!
