Gus loves people

Gus is going through a rough spot.  We had a pretty chill year 2, but 3 is working me over.  Gus did swim lessons and it was hilarious/obnoxious how he would tell his teacher "no thanks, not today." Not rude, just totally not interested.  It took him 3 weeks to finally get into it, those poor swim teachers.  He just likes to do his own thing on his own timing, little turd burglar he is so me.  Got to love him though, or at least I love him; the rest of you I totally get it if you're not loving 3 year old Gus he's a stinker.

I have always said 3 is harder than 2! Am I allowed to laugh at him giving you a hard time? It's always so much cuter when it's someone else's kid. I think I like Gus all the more for it!

Age 3 is definitely harder than age 2 in my opinion. Age 4 has been the best age for both of my boys (old enough to do most things independently but not old enough to be in school where he gets an attitude).

Whoever said "terrible two's" never had a 3 year old. 3 is way harder than 2. Just know you are not alone. :)

3 is ALWAYS harder than 2. Sometimes I get freaked out because I think that they are going to stay that way for life. Or I think it's a glimpse of them as teenagers. But then around 4 or a little after. They get nice again. Like Kizzy, just changed one day and now she's nice and doesn't evil eye me as much. And she lets her brother and sisters touch her. It's just a phase.
