Terrible Twos Strikes The Bridges!


My beautiful daughter turned two in July. We have been very blessed because her behavior has always been decent! She's not perfect but we're not pulling out our hair...yet. :) Makenzie and I headed to Oklahoma this weekend. We went to celebrate my nephew, Mark, graduating from Metro Technology School. I'm so proud of him!! Makenzie, I guess, decided that she wasn't too thrilled about all the traveling and hoopla. On the way to Oklahoma, we stopped to eat and she decided she didn't want to walk...at all! Then she screamed while I tried to change her diaper. She decided she wouldn't sit on the bench at the table (which I NEVER let her stand on). Then we got to OKC and she decided she wasn't going to walk to dinner that evening. The only problem was that it was very windy and I was wearing a skirt! I carry her and I moon everyone!!! When we got back to my sister's, her attitude didn't change very much. The first night, she threw the biggest tantrum I have ever seen. Even my sister was a little in awe of it! So finally we headed back to Odessa. The trip back was totally different!! She was sweet and playful! I hope that the terrible twos are just a fading memory....but I won't hold my breath!!
