It was a very bad day

So, yesterday had to be the worst day I've had in a very long time. If Chase isn't in the terrible two's I don't want to know what they are!
Let's back track for a sec. We decided to take the front off his bed b/c he was getting up into Zale's loft bed every second of the day to which Zale would (and still does) freak out. So, when we moved him back over with Dean we went ahead and took the front off hoping he would do well. He did stop getting up on Zale's bed for a while but the past two weeks has started back up not to mention all the ruckus he started causing in the mornings. He comes out front and yell and sing, go back into his room where Dean was sleeping and wake him up, come into our room and slam the door when arriving and leaving, poking us with toys climbing up on the bed. He would do all of this most of the time around 7 but soemtimes before. He wouldn't be out front for too long before one of us was out there with him 15-20 at the most and in that amount of time something would be trashed. It's not like he didn't have things to do out here we had the t.v. timer set to come onto cartoons and we have toys.
O.K. so Tuesday w/ in 15 minutes he had cleaned out the drawer in the desk that has the pens and some scrap booking markers, rubber bands, calculators, that sort of stuff. Henry comes out here to find it was all out of the drawer and he decided to color with a sharpie......on his legs. Now I don't think I have to tell you that Sharpie pens are famous for staying on certain surfaces and I think skin must be it's favorite b/c it's now Friday and guess what the "drawings" are still there. I tried in vein and have been to get it off but it won't so it's just kinda fading away. I did take a picture but not the day it happened I was to mad. Then Wednesday again w/ in a few minutes he got everything out under the kitchen sink and was messing with all of it. Now, luckily we don't have too much under there most cleaning items are up in a cabinet in the garage (which the door to the garage has a regular lock, and we put up a chain lock way at the top) and the two that are under the sink are organic and locked but still. Henry came back to the room and said I don't care how upset he is the front is going back on his bed and told me what had happend.
The rest of the day went down hill from there. He was constantly up on Zale's bed and would take everything out and throw it all over and play with things that are "special" to Zale. It drove me nuts b/c each time Zale would freak out and scream and beg and plead all while crying to get of his bed. So, I would go in there once it started getting loud and get him off and we would again straighten up his bed again. This happened over and over and over again. Finally he stopped only to find soemthing else to get into. Zale came out with some of his shirts from the closet still on the hangers and said,"Mom, Chase took these out!" Now Chase isn't that tall and I was curios how he got up that high to do that. I walk in and Dean is standing there watching him & laughing just having a good old time, how ever once he saw me he kinda backed away (so young and already knows "the face"). There was Chase perched on top of the plastic stackable drawers pulling things down and throwing them where ever he wanted. He wasn't concerend by the fact that I was standing there as a matter of fact he looked rather pleased with himself and the job he was doing and even told me hi. I wasn't too happy and told him so many words (I did have the camera though b/c I was pretty sure this is what he did and I wanted to get a pic.) I'm sure that didn't make sense to him and confused him a little, but I know I got the point across not to do it again. A little while later I was going through some papperwork and Dean is running back and forth from the hallway to the kitchen. His little fat feet making that little slap sound on the floor and he had a little. I decided I needed to see what was up with that so I got him at the end of the hallway which is also where his room is and of course the door is locked b/c Chase is in there doing who knows what. I look down and his cheeks are full. I'm sure you are wondering full of what and I'll tell you......dog food. His mouth was full of dog food like chunky cheeks full. I stuck my finger in there nad did a sweep and could not believe all the food that came out and the smell was not fantastic I can tell you now and I did gag. I'm walking back to the kitchen to throw it away and he's right behind me I turn around to look at him after throwing away the food and there he is getting more!!! We feed him protein I don't understand this kid at all! He gets in the dog food all the time, and actually stopped for a long time but has recently developed a taste for it again I guess. Not to mention the fact that he treats the water bowl like it's a water park!
I get done cleaning all that up and go to check on Chase in his locked room. For all the things he gets into and the fact he knows how to lock the door he still hasn't figured out how to un lock the door. We have a key right there to be able to get in just for this reason. I go in and he has pulled every toy out thrown everything off his bed and is playing with one toy like this is how it always is and it's all good. We clean it up and I get him out and interested into another activity, a movie it's almost time for a nap and this usually calms him down. Well it worked and he fell asleep in front of the t.v. for like 10 minutes. I moved him to his bed and put Dean down and a few minutes later heres Chase. I tried three times to get him to lay down and take a nap but when you have two sharing a room and one is being a butt head you really don't want the butt head to wake up the sweet sleeping child in the same room. I had no choice to let him stay up b/c he deemed it o.k. that he take a 10 minute nap.
After nap time which the only one that took it was Dean who by the way is currently our favorite child. Not only does he not talk back yet or tattle tale all the time he does what we ask him to and he's so stinking funny and according to Henry he's the only one that got the dimple so to him that's his saving grace. They all decided to go nuts after nap esp. Chase who by at this point is running on fumes and cranky b/c he didn't take a nap. I was dis connected from this point I was emotionally and physically drained from the day and it wasn't even over yet! I was and still am in desperate need of a break. When Henry got home he made dinner got the table set fed them cleaned up ran the dish washer then played with them got Chase's crib put back together and did the whole bed time routine with them. All while I did NOTHING!!! Although I did change Dean's diaper before bed but that was it.
It was such a rough day and I understand it's my life and it's sorta something I did to myself but c'mon everyone needs a break once in a while! I have been with them non stop for about two weeks now & I'm pretty much at my breaking point at this moment in time. I hear that it's the "terrible twos" and the "tumultuous threes" I'm seriously praying that it's not true b/c I don't know if I can handle Chase going through the three phase and Dean going through the two pahse next year at the same time. We never experienced any of this with Zale however he is the tattle tell kid now and getting super whiny which is just as aggravating.
