1, 2, 3......ARGUE!

I am totally convinced that your child turns three. Their language skills have quadrupled and they have the constant urge to argue with you. Mason will ask me questions quizzing me on things and when I don't know the "right" answer, here comes the argument. He will then proceed to tell me what I said that was wrong.
Mason - "Mommy, what's that?" Mommy - "It's an airplane." Mason - "No, it's not. It's a jet!" He's right. It's a fighter jet. I'll never understand where he comes up with this stuff.

He's even become so sophisticated that he's now putting his sis in timeout. Sydney was trying to get at his shoes the other day. (She loves playing with shoes.) Mason kept telling her no, no, no, Sydney. I guess he had had enough and next thing we knew he was pushing her back up to the entertainment center. Mason - "Sydney, you're in timeout. Don't do anything. Don't touch anything. Timeout, Sydney." Sydney just looks at Mason like he's nuts. Matt and I are still talking about it to this day. So hilarious!

Sydney takes after her mommy. Everything has to be put away. Her newest "habit" is that once she's done getting her diaper changed, she has to throw the diaper away herself. If you forget and take the diaper away yourself, you will regret it. Screams and crying like you've never seen. She takes the diaper and walks right over to the pantry door waiting for you to open it. Such a good girl!!!!!
