Someone must be sneaking into Carter's room late at night and instructing him on how to behave like a two year old. I can only assume it is the How-to-be-a-two-year-old Fairy. This morning he told me what he wanted to wear, and vetoed my vote for clothes with tears. Gees! First he protests every single meal...now getting dressed every morning is going to be a challenge. He thinks he can eat snacks all day long, and refuses to sit with us at meal time. We have to chase him around the house and strap him into his seat. It is a good thing that he is so darn cute or I may just return him to the store! :) I am really enjoying Squishy right now though, he smiles and coos a lot and is really starting to cry a LOT less. He really only cries in the car now. He is starting to enjoy his Kick & Play baby seat. He kicks as hard as he can to make the music and lights turn on, it is too cute!!!

YAY!! The end is in sight for Camden to stop crying! I am sorry about Carter though Those two years olds are something else...
Colin has started acting two, too. He's only 20 months! I remember that that time just before and just after two to be the most difficult.
Have you tried making a poster? This sort of helped us. I took photos of Delaney doing all the "morning" activities, then made a poster showing them (getting dressed, doing hair, brushing teeth, shoes on, in the car...). What about picking out the clothes the night before, and letting him help? Making that part of the bed time routine? Do you have meals as a family? Then he's not missing anything b/c everyone is there. Limiting snacks? Scheduled eating - he knows what to expect?
Two is certainly the time of pushing limits. But I hate to break it to ya - three is WORSE!
