I'm starting to see how people say age 3 is worse than 2!
Everyone keeps saying "you think two is bad, three is worse!" And I think, how could it possibly be worse than yelling, screaming, tantrums, hitting and throwing food? Well, I think i'm starting to see it. The tantrums are not as much and his behavior is changing a little, now it is outright disobedience. The idea that they can't express themsevles and therefore throw tantrums is a part of the past. He can communicate and understands everything, so now it is "No Mommy, I don't want to!" 
But, I'd also say that overall it is better than two because you can explain that good behavior=happy mommy=happy boy.  So consequences now exist in his world.
Anyone else going through this lovely transition time?

 Oh no don't tell me that, I was looking forward to getting past the terrible two's (they've started already at 21 months )

MY son always had his fair share of terrible 2's, beleive me, but yes, I do have to agree. He is 3 now and I am in for some ride! HE's testing my limits and gets fresh sometimes because he really knows how to express himself! PLus he is forever tormenting his 1 year old sister!

2 was a nightmare, 3 was easier with Joseph.
With Maddie, 2 was terrific, 2 was was  . I kept asking myself "Why did we teach her how to talk???"
