As Jude nears two year

We are now firmly in the terrible two's, on top of everything else that is going on with life.  Brian, Tamlin, and myself are learning how to deal with Jude's rush of emotions and lack of communication skills, which equals frequent melt-downs for seemingly no reasons.

Jude's mind seems to be going something like this...

I'm awake
I'm awake, why is no one else awake
I'll push the talking dog button repeatedly until brother wakes up
Wake UP!
WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKE UP!
I'm wet
I'm hungry
I want my diaper changed NOW
I don't want my diaper changed
I HATE being on my back for diaper changing
MOM!
MOMMA! MOMMA!
Up?
UP!
UP! UP! UP!
Oh, now I see the candy. 
I want candy.
CANDY, CANDY, CANDY!
No Candy?
Down.
I'm still hungry.
HUNGRY!
I want a poptart!
No, I want brother's poptart!
I only wanted part of my poptart and now I'm done
DONE!
I want out of my chair
I want up into daddy's lap in his chair
I'm still hungry and I want whatever daddy's eating, even if it was the same thing I was eating a second ago
PLAY!
Truck.
TRUCK! TRUCK! TRUCK!
I want whatever truck Tam's playing with.
SHARE!
Oh, momma's trying to write something.
I want a pencil
PEN!  PAPER!
Scribbling is awesome
Can I eat pencils?  Let's try!
Wait, pencils aren't food?
I'm freakin' starving!
Can I eat pencils?  Let me try this again...
I want daddy!
DADDY! DADDY DADDY!
UP!
Down.
Nobody loves me!
I'm all alone and nobody understands how horrible my life is!
WAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!
HUG me!

And this seems to be all within the first hour of the day...
