Oh my god, she is driving me up the wall

"go away mummy"
"mine mine mine"
"no no no"
"No mine, go away"

Oh and then there is the "not allowed to peel the orange or banana, because she wants to do it herself, then she gets frustrated because she cant do it, but still wont let me do it"

there is plenty more but yeah...someone please tell me she will grow out of it soon

No is Michaela's newest word.  We love it because it means she's saying another word (and we're not yet sick of hearing it).

It does sound kinda normal It was just before all that happened to us that I found myself scouring our local library's shelves for parenting toddlers books!! Pretty much you need to work with the independence thing so that she can learn to make decisions but in a safe environment. Choosing out of two options of things to do or clothes to wear seems to be the easiest way to start.

NO! is Amelia's fav word.. does drive you a little crazy I know!

Also - no dad / go away dad (poor dad) ...

and every time I ask her to come to me or do something she runs away (inside the house).

At least I can reason with her (at the moment). We had the 'no' then sink to the ground in the shopping centre yesterday - because I told her she had to hold hands. So I picked her up and told her that she either had to hold my hand while she walked, or she went back in the buggy ... guess what she choose!?!

Yes it's normal and no she won't grow out of it. At least until she's a teenager when she'll get so lazy you *wish* she'd do things for herself!

Then comes the "STOP IT" yelled super loudly, followed by "I not like it".

I think at this age they are very indecisive and not to sure what they want, they want to be independent but then again still need help. If that makes sense.

Yup very normal Amelia has been saying NO NO NO for months and it drives me insane some days. It is her answer to everything, no matter how you word it!! She has liked to do things for herself for ages and I have found if we let her do it then we do it, it helps - doesn't always work but most of the time. I almost think if we can handle this, the teenage years will be a breeze
