NICO'S TANTRUM'S.....
Is it just my child or is every child kicking and screaming when you have to come in from outside for dinner, bed or nap whichever time of day it happens to be? It's now from the time I pick him up from Gma and Gpa Decker's until the moment I close the garage door because it's time for dinner not play time....I know I am a horrible Mother for making him eat :)
Now I know I may shock some of you who think Nico can do no wrong......BUT he has started throwing tantrums and I think before today, I would of given in but now I am sitting there while he is yelling and screaming thinking "please God please don't let the neighbors see my bad child" but I guess in all reality I know every child has their moments, but lately it seems like in Nico's world it's his way or no way. And I ask myself after the situation is defused, how can I make a 18 month old understand when he looks at me like I have three heads when I start to explain it's dinner time or bed time....
I guess these times makes me feel like I have been defeated, but then after the big crocodile tears are gone and the tantrum is over, and he crawls over to sit on my lap I know it's just another one of those moments we would all like to forget but have to go through until they are old enough to understand.....Your grounded!!! If I only had a nickel every time my Mom said that to my sister because you know I was the angel!!!!
Until next time........

He is entering the terrible 2-5s. LOL! It will get easier, but every child goes through it and needs to show you that they think their the boss..
I know that tantrums can be difficult to handle, but just remember it is only a phase and he will get past it. Remember when Kaitlyn screamed and cried at the top of her lungs in the checkout line at Kmart because I wouldn't buy her some candy? We walked out of the store that day red faced with our heads down praying that nobody would recognize us. And what did we learn from it....always give my kids candy when they ask for it :) But seriously you are doing everything right, you are an amazing mama and soon you'll be laughing when you think of his tantrums because he will have moved on to something else!
