'Tude

My dear sweet child is such an angel. Except for when she's not. And, boy oh boy, she can be quite the lovely little terror if she chooses to be. Night time has been such a challenge for our little family. Violet runs around like a banshee and Gregg and I are ready to pull our hair out before she goes to bed. Welcome to our world the last few weeks. Pretty, huh? Yeah, I didn't think so.

Anyhow, enter tonight's moments of terror. Violet is fighting us over something (I have since forgotten what). She won't sit in time out and is still giving some major 'tude (it's long since passed the mark of attitude and is full blown 'tude by now). So, our next step ~ strip the kid of her TV privileges for the night.

Our little princess's attitude straightens out for a brief moment. Violet then comes up to us and asks...
"Can I watch something that I DON'T like?"

Hmmm, I'm wondering what would be the best show to plop her in front of. CSPAN? Weather Channel? Nightmare on Elm Street? The options are limitless!!!

Oh, I so feel your pain. We have lots of attitude going on around my house too.

Is it the time of year for this or what? Bryce has been giving us major attitude here lately too. And he's usually not like that at all. Hmm... Hope things calm down for Violet (and you) soon!
