They bicker all. day. long. I can handle (and am used to) a day or two of it. They get along pretty well (at least not all three of the big kids fighting) most of the time and then have a couple of bad days before getting back to normal. This has been going on for over a week!
All three of the big kids are snapping at each other and having less patience with William also. He wants to play with his big brother and sisters. I know they don't want to all the time, so I try to work it out so they take turns during the day. He will also play alone periodically.
In between, they are snarky, snapping at each other, etc. It is really taking a toll on my mood. :( Within 5 mins of them all being up I'm ready for the day to be over. :(
On top of that William is apparently hitting the threes. :doh Threes are hard on me. LOL I love the twos but threes are so much harder. Oh the drama!
So, I have a 2 year 8 month year old, 6 year old, 10 year old and just turned 13 year old with a lot of conflict going on. I can handle a day or two at a time of this, but weeks is past my limit. :-/
I need help. :(
