Terrible Twos....????

So I got home from work yesterday and Mike says "you didn't blog today"-- of course I respond- well i was hard at work honey... (some of my co workers might read this.... i have to say that).  But really I thought well between Thursday night and now nothing too too exciting has happened to blog about-- then the night started and I should have known I spoke too soon.  So dinner and play time went as any normal night would go(only one really good quote from Charlie; Mike tells Charlie to stop doing something; he does it again Mike says "Hey" Charlie "Hey is for horses"-- )  and Charlie was pumped he was going to get to take a shower!! For some reason taking a shower seems like the best thing to him right now, since normally he takes a bath.  So all night he is waiting for Wheel of Fortune to be over so it is shower time and sure enough about 650, Charlie says "i need a drink and starts to run to the kitchen" Mike responds "no charlie you don't get anything else to drink tonight, remember.  you wet the bed the last 2 nights so no more to drink".  Charlie not happy with that response goes to the kitchen and starts to open the fridge.  I go out and decide i will be the nice one for the night and find Emmy's cup that had just a drink of juice left in it and offer it to Charlie.....  and this is where it begins.... (Side note: to make it easier I will put C = Charlie, J=Jodi, M=Mike).
C-i don't want juice, i want water
J- well this is your only option tonight; it is this or nothing
C- throwing the cup on the floor
J-excuse me?
C-I want daddy to do it
J-good  (i then proceed to take emmy into the bathroom for her bath)
from the bathroom i can hear yelling from the kitchen along the lines of
blah blah blah juice, blah water, blah water, no, please, no, shower... i want mommy
okay so i think at this point is when we changed from drinking to shower in which M is carrying C and opens the bathroom door and puts C in on the floor still crying
C-I want to take a shower
J-well i'm sorry you lost that privilege
C-I want to take a shower
J-maybe tomorrow; but since you are crying and throwing a fit you don't get to do fun things and take a shower
C-dont say that i'm not crying i want daddy
J-maybe tomorrow
C-no not tomorrow, right now
blah blah scream; blah blah yell; shower, now, juice, shower, today blah blah yell, cry, daddy
I then take Emmy out of the bath, C doesnt want to leave the bathroom; M takes C to his room to get ready for bed; here we are still on the shower but also back to a drink
C-daddy, i want a drink
M-no
C-i want mommy
J enters
C- i want daddy
M enters
J brings cup with small amount of water
C-no i want juice
I mean you get the point right.... back and forth-- no way to win at this.  Finally Mike was able to get him to stop-- and after he sounded like had been drinking all night at a bar and had no voice. 

today (Saturday) we have been fit free... then again i still have 2 hours to go so i shouldnt speak too soon.  (and yes he is already asleep; but anything can wake the dragon)
however I am expecting a nice note from school on Monday b/c Charlie got to see his cousin and uncle tonight and he learned the following sayings:
"Have an issue, here's a tissue"
"Don't hate me because you ain't me"
Thank you Ben & Dennis.

Overall good day.  Although the drive home from the south was horrible- probably 20 cars in the ditch.  Drive safe!!!!
