OMG! having put up with my pain in the rear boss all day, I have just picked Joshua up and seriously he wasnt through the door door before he started! Screamed because I hadnt fetched his umbrella (it isnt raining), then through a tantrum because I crossed the road at a different point than usual (cars were parked further down). Then he throw a tantrum because I asked if he ate all his dinner and had a nice day. Then, finially getting round the corner and he throws another screaming fit because I have his pictures, he wanted them (he could have asked!). Managed to get down the hill without problem, then he runs off (near the main road) I chased him and told him to wait, another tantrum that he is a big boy (clearly not).

Whilst walking back across our street, I explained I had to finish the letters on the pc then we could go to caernarfon, he was fine about that. Came in and he has trashed my front room all because he couldnt get his bag off his bacxk, I hadnt even shut the door. Then he demanded the tv turned on, and then he throws a screaming fit because I am in his room!

He only finished school at 2.45pm

He had a seriously bad night last night, with what I think were night terrors again. Its been on and off for a few weeks, but last night was particulary bad again. Im assuming he felt the drained after a disturbed sleep, despite being still asleep it still drains him. Early bed tonight, with a few prayers for a settled night!

oooooo you've had my wednesday post school with joshua.

Tasja and Isla are nightmares on a wednesday..they just can't 'do' a wednesday..they are both just worn out from school, after school stuff and nursery.

Sooo its early tea, bath and early night for the pair of them and fingers crossed for a nice thursday.

Count to ten over and over..but yeah sounds like an early night for him chick.  He mustve been pooped after last night cos it was still really late when he was upset.

He's asleep.. he has just dropped on the landing, and I have carried him into bed. That will no doubt be him now until tomorrow morning!

Bless him (for being asleep on the landing!) Poor you (for everything that happened before then!)

Hope the night terrors dont start again proper and it was a one off.

Hugs x

Awww poor lad, does sound like overtiredness eh ?

As hard as it is for us to put up with the silly screaming fits, it must be frustrating for them too.
