My sweet little boy is missing.
He has been replaced by a little pill. He talks back, has an attitude, and doesn't listen EVER, hits and doesn't share his toys, and he gets into things he isn't supposed to constantly. I know that this is a normal thing and most days I don't blame it on my mothering skills. He is three after all. It is normal. . . .Right?. . . So my question to all of you seasoned mothers of boys is this, how long does it last? Will I have to endure this for a few weeks? Months? I try to be patient with him, but I think I could be more patient if I knew when it was ending. It was so sudden. Seriously, like two days ago, I woke up to a completely different child. Good thing he is so cute. . .

Oh man! Please don't tell me that Addy is going to hit that when she turns 3!!! I'm sure he'll grow out of it. He is a sweet, cute little boy. Your pictures look soooo good... gotta love that new camera!!
Well, Maddux will be 5 in three days and we're still dealing with that on and off. If you get too sick of him, just send him over to my house.
I feel your pain! That post could've been words from my mouth! Where did my sweet little boy go? Three's are SO MUCH worse than the so-called terrible two's. I think it helps a little just knowing someone else is going through it, too. Patience... :)
Mine is already at it at 2... oh boy... I doubt it ever really ends though Jen! :( We always had attitudes, right? lol
I can't offer much hope. So far as I've seen, once they outgrow that, they start another battle. Endless cycle until they move away and miss us?
Totally feel your pain! And mine is supposed to be this sweet little girl. I'm sorry its so hard, but i must say its somewhat of a relief to know mine isn't the only one!
Sometimes 3 year old's are fun, and other (I mean most) times they are "fun". I saw a huge difference in our oldest once she turned 4, and thankfully our 2nd is almost there. I'm not sure what the big deal about 2 year old's is, 3 is so different! Good luck! :)
We have a three year old son and we are going through this too. We never encountered the "terrible twos" with our oldest son except we did have some behavioral problems after our second son was born. Children are like snowflakes, no two are alike.
