What to do with a nutty toddler?

Midol?

My husband thinks that our toddler is behaving like he has PMS. That means he is behaving moody, cranky, and unpredictable, changing his mind often, and crying for everything… So, I guess this is a guy’s version of what PMS is…

Anyways, back to the toddler, who woke up because the baby was screaming. He woke up, and started crying and screaming while running to the steps. (We have a gate) He stands at the gate and refuses to move, or listen to us.

My husband goes to close their bedroom door so that the 3 year old does not get up as well… the toddler “freaks out” completely, starts screaming “no, no!”, and running around in circles…

At this point, we don’t know what is up with him… our guess is hunger.

He sees the bottle of milk and freaks out again “milk, milk, milk”, then drinks 1 oz and says he’s all done??!? Ok, now I don’t get this kid.

My husband manages to get him to finish the milk, so we’re thinking that he’s going to be in a better mood now…

Ok, no!

He’s now on our bed, and refuses to let his dad come back on the bed. He starts crying and screaming, grabbing the pillows, telling him “no”...

Hubby goes back in toddler’s bed and I haven’t seen him since!

Toddler starts crying and asking for his daddy!

All this drama and its only 7am!!!!!!

Isn’t it nice when your husband leaves you with crying baby and nutty toddler? So thoughtful… now, I can enjoy the morning, as I wake to the beautiful sounds of my beautiful babies!
