Is this attachment?? Terrible two??

Last night and this moring my sweet angle wasn't so sweet. She did things she knew she shouldn't, didn't want to do what I wanted her to do (take her clothes off to get in the tub, get in the tub, get wet...not just tub issues). When I talked to her and said, Mommy is sweet to you, you be sweet to Mommy she would come around. Last week she spent two nights with Grandma who gave her undivided attention. When she came home she had fallen asleep in the car, she initially came to me then wanted to go right back to Grandma, didn't go to her Daddy, finally came to me, but cried for Grandma (not long). Mon. night I got sick, so she had limited exposure to me Tuesday. Last night she interacted very well with Dad, but if I was around she wasn't as cooperative. Is she becoming a Daddy's girl? Was two nights with Grandma, too much? Some how I feel Grandma spoiling her when she has her undermines attachment. Is this a crazy notion? Or is all this just not enough time with me and she's punishing me? Terrible twos?? She turns two Tuesday.
Help all you experts
