Drama at the Back Door

Jared watch Stacia while Jamin made dinner, and I worked on the group co-op order. He realized she can open the back door and so he moved the child proof knob from the pantry (where I was attempting to keep Zander out of the pantry, but it hasn't worked for months now that I think of it) to the back door. Oy Vey! A tantrum royale...without the results she had planned on. We have been shocked and awed by the tantrums this week....but as of yet they don't last long and aren't happening frequently....because she seems to be bright enough to realize they aren't working. ::snort:
Realizing that Jared was laughing and not opening the door, she moved on to me as I worked on the order...this didn't work either...and she quit.

Oh my, look at that very sad face. Hopefully she will realize quick that all the fussing doesn't yield her anything and she will tire of it.

Oh it's nice when you have one that realises that tantrums don't work, isn't it?

My dd never did, so they went on for years. Ds cottoned on really quickly, though. {g}

Sis: I told you she was smart. In addition to catching on quick she is (hopefully) getting thru this before "Daddy" aliz "Daddy Bear" gets home. How nice for him!

She is so cute no matter what.

Your FATHER decided yesterday that it really didn't matter what he did beings as the screw is thru the socket anyway........... so he drove over to Will's to use Joe's grinder to sharpen his two ax's. The he used their whatever and washed the new car. He is right in that he can't hurt the hip any worse but he did pay for it in pain. Anyway he is ok this morning. :(:( :) :) ???? It is just as hard to understand the thinking of an active man who has been idle far to long. :):)

Mom t must be right, she's doing that age 2 thing really early so that she gets it over with before Daddy comes home!

It's very fun to have some pictures like this to show them when they're older!

I'm so glad that my Ryann cannot turn the doorknobs yet. She loves to shut doors, but then complains when she can't open them.

Tantrums are still new to Ryann, but I think she forgets why she's crying anyhow.
