Toddler mama - this one is for you! ⠀
.⠀
.⠀
Don’t let that smile fool ya. This little girl has full grasp of her “terrible” sassy twos, testing us every step of the way.

Most of the time I just start to giggle as her independence builds and she pouts and stomps off, leaving me with her new found vocabulary;
.
“ill do it myself.”⠀
“Leave me alone mommy, I’m angry.”⠀
“I can do it, I can get it.”
.
But when it comes time for nap and bedtime it is a whole other story.
.
“no mommy it’s NOT nap time.”⠀
“wait, don’t leave me.”⠀
“I’m thirsty”⠀
“just one last snuggle.”⠀
“Can I have a sucker?” <— wait, what!?!! Where do they come up with this stuff.
.
.⠀
It is common for toddlers to test the boundaries in all areas of their life, but especially at nap and bedtime.
.

As they move through a season of discovery and independence they start to see just how far they can push. They need to check and make sure for the twentieth time, that the answer is still no, that-yes-it is still time for bed, and that you WILL, lovingly walk out that door at the end of bedtime routine and see their smiling face in the morning.
.
The most interesting thing is that then they test the boundaries around sleep and the boundaries shift, they’re left feeling insecure about their roll as child and yours as their parent. This insecurity ultimately results in acting out and more testing behavior.
.
Creating or holding firm - respectful, loving, and clear boundaries is the best way to ease bedtime battles and help your child feel secure again.
.
Don’t get me wrong, they are going to still test those boundaries from time to time. Just to keep you on your toes. But the more they know concretely that those boundaries are firm and unchanging the easier time they will have at bedtime.
.

Who else is in the thick of #toddlerlife ?? Can you relate? ⠀
What ways have your toddlers tested you lately?
.
Share your story in the comments so that we can all navigate this funny/not funny time in our lives with our toddlers. Because most days we either laugh or cry our way through these situations - so today lets choose to see the humor. ⠀
