We've entered the "three-nager" stage!!

OMG guys!  It's like X changed overnight.  Last night I actually said "Who are you and what did you do with X??"  We went to sign a contract at a new daycare and he was soooooooo bad!  I was embarrassed.  Normally when we go to new places he is quiet and shy and sticks to DH or I.  We walked in to this poor lady's house and he ran right for the toy box, ripped off the lid, threw it and started taking out toys.  Then her 18 month old son came over and wanted to play with him and he yanked a toy out of the boy's hands and started yelling "NOOOOOOO!!!"  I was trying to talk to the woman and go over the contract and X went right up to my face and started saying "Why?" over and over and over.  He got mad that I asked him to stop and he ran towards the door but tripped and busted his top lip open on a baby gate.  Blood everywhere.  He is crying hysterically.  Then he wants a snack.  Keeps asking repeatedly for a snack and flipping out because I asked him to wait until we got home.  Then we go to leave and he throws a tantrum because he wants to stay.  O.M.G.  This poor lady is probably like WTF?!  He's never acted like that in public.

He's also started saying things like I'm not invited to his birthday party anymore.  This morning he told me that he was not happy with me and wouldn't be happy with me ever, ever, ever. 

Anyone else entering the three-nager stage?  3 is definitely worse than 2!

Omg we've had a bunch if tantrums out if nowhere the last 3 days but I'm praying its bc she has a little cold. Yesterday she told me she was going to buy a new mommy! I pretended to cry and she teared up and said "I just kidding mmmy. I keep you."

X does that too!! Last night I left him home with DH so I could go get groceries. He cried because he wanted to come with me. I told him he had to stay home because it was bedtime. This morning I woke up and said good morning to him. He said "No. Not good morning. I sad Mommy. I really really really sad. I want to get groceries with you. I not happy with you ever ever ever".

We are starting the "I can't understand you when you speak like that. Please talk nicely." thing way earlier this time. I'm hoping it doesn't take 3 years to sink it like it did with her sister.

B has been 2.5 going on 15 for weeks. Yesterday on the way home from ILs he screamed as loud as he possibly could because he didn't want to come home. Then he yelled at me and told me to "STOP IT!" He got a timeout when we walked in the door and then 20 minutes later he was grabbing my face and giving me kisses. We call him Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
