Forget the Germans, where do 2yo's get energy??

I'm trying to get back into the WIP after several weeks away. It's going slowly. I wonder why? My two-year-old went to bed after 11:30 last night. (She woke up at 7:30 this morning and hasn't had a nap, in case you're wondering.) She's wearing her third outfit today, she's sharpened colored pencils and emptied the sharpener over my bed, she ate all the mini frozen yogurts my older son was freezing for an after-school treat, and sat on me while I was trying to do pilates. (My back hurts from carrying too many heavy things, and I'd really like to do pilates, because the few times I've been allowed to try them, it's really felt good.) Right now she is dancing to Sandra Boynton's Dog Train and begging to change her clothes yet again. Did I mention that she got her brother's school scissors and cut her hair yesterday? You can't tell, which is amazing, considering the amount of hair we found--it seems to be spread, layerlike, throughout the whole top.

We've gotten to the song "I Need a Nap!" Maybe if she won't take one, I will volunteer. Let me sleep!

Thanks--at least some of them fell asleep last night. My littlie is up dancing again, though. Maybe she can dance herself to sleep??

They don't seem to wear themselves out do they? I know my boys are into everything at the worst possible times. Usually when I'm trying to do something productive.

No kidding!
