Why, Mommeeeeeeeeeeeee, Why?

My eldest is sleeping over at his grandma’s house, and my hubby went out (possibly to celebrate his victory over the mouse!), so I have the great job of taking care of a 2 year old and a 10 month old. As I write this, they are sitting here on the bed fighting with each other over a bowl from the kitchen, and the 2 year old is commanding the baby to go back into his crib!

The middle child, or better know as the son that suffers from middle child syndrome, is making his usually-neglected-but-very-loud-voice be heard today!

Me: [Flossing]
2 year old: Mommeeeeeeeee WHAT YOU EATING? MOMMEEEEEEEEEE?
Me: It’s floss baby
2 year old: Oh YEAAAAAAAAAAAA?
Me: [Brushing my teeth]
2 year old: Why you washing your hands and brushing your teeth, MOMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEE? WHY? WHY MOMMEEEEEEEEEEE? WHY?

Why people? Why are 2 year olds so curious? WHY? WHY PEOPLEEEEEEEE?

I think that’s why God made them so darn cute… because otherwise it could get annoying!

Even more fun, as I’m sure you’ve already experienced with the eldest, are the slightly more complicated questions that come next.  The fun of it isn’t just the type of question, but that they come at you in a barrage, with not even a breath between them to give you time to answer.

heehee…

A four year old asks on average 400 questions a day! Maybe he’s only asking 200 which is a fair quota

So cute, yet i can see how it can be soooo annoying. Well i suppose this stage of constant questions will pass, BUT not before the last one is at that stage and you have to answer all his ‘why??” questions.

Good luck with that..
