Poor Gracie! She has had some trouble adjusting to her role as the middle child. When I first had Giulianna, she was not at all impressed. The girls weren't able to come to the hospital to see us because Gabby was very sick. My mom and sister tried to show her a picture of the new baby to Gracie and she knocked the phone out of there hands and went and hid. Every since then things have only gotten worse. She loves the baby and is very gentle with her, so at least she isn't taking out her anger on her. Me on the other hand, nothing is held back. My sweet, quiet, shy baby has turned into a holy terror. She cries constantly following me through the house, and throws tantrums at least ten times a day that can last forever. She is also getting a lot of attitude. We have begun potty-training and what a nightmare. She knows how to go in the toliet, but is not at all consistent. One day she may be dry most of the day, and other days she won't go in the toliet at all, just screams and cries when you even suggest it. I long to have my old Gracie back. I know this is just a phase that will eventually pass, but hopefully that time will come before I go gray. I am doing everything I can to reassure her that she is just a special as she was before. We love you bunches Gracie....even if you are a turd! :)
