Terrible Two's are among us AHHHHHH

I am not sure what happened to my very sweet and loveable great granddaughter Randi...I am positive the Terrible Two monster has taken over her body. She went from this loving adorable child to this thing I don't even recognize. Oh she fools you every once in awhile and loves on you and gives you all sorts of kisses and hugs and plays nice. BUT...just when you think all is well, she smiles and man watch out.

She has become this daredevil and climbs up on everything she possible can whether it is safe or not. I lost count on how many bruises this child has at any given moment from her climbing and ultimately falling. But she gets right back up and finds something else destructive to do.

As you are picking up, fixing something, putting something back she has messed with, She will be into something else and as soon as you call her name and tell her NO for the millionth time, if she has something in her hand she will throw it. Doesn't matter what it is, it gets thrown.
I have baby gates that I use for the hallway and kitchen to try and keep her contained in one room at least where we are at. I can't hook them up the traditional way as I need to be able to let my cat get to her food and litter box, so Randi has figured out how to move them and just head into wherever her little heart desires. They work for awhile but when she wants something and its in her way, she just moves it and gives you this look and says "HaHa" and on her way she goes.

Don't get me wrong I love this child with all my heart, but this old granny just doesn't move like she used to. And Randi knows this and takes full advantage of this knowledge. Her mother (Morgyn) and her are living me at the moment and Morgyn is going to college and will be starting a new job next week. So I am the babysitter while she is gone. By the end of the day or when she takes a nap, which isn't for very long, I try and rest.I hope soon this Terrible Two monster leaves our home and my adorable little one will be her loving self soon. This granny needs a break. :)

On a lighter note, I got to see the Senior pictures of my grandson Kharson. He is such a handsome sweet man. I can't believe he graduates this year. Time sure does fly.
