Annoyed

Don't get me wrong, I love being home and I wouldn't change it for the world, but I really am going to pull my hair out and scream. It seems for the last few days my children...aka Stevie...have gone deaf. I ask him to pick up his toys and he chucks them across the room. I ask him to leave Abbie alone and he pushes her down so he can play with her while she lays down.

In last fews days we have had multiple talks (and timeouts) about cords and electrical outlets. We do have all of our outlet child proof, but 2 days ago he managed to break one of the covers off. Yesterday, all he did during nap time was cry because he didn't want to take a nap. I went in around 3:30 because the crying turned into owie and I think he may have gotten a jolt because once again he was playing with the outlet. He had his light bulb out of his night light while it was still plugged in and told me he hurt his finger.

I am not sure how many more timeouts are not going to work. I know he is two and that is just the age, but it is still beyond frustration. A friend once called it opposite day and boy that is what he was doing this whole week. I think I need a time out!
