His eyes are amazing. I agree with your comment about having to two years to become Mom as opposed to just weeks. I think it makes a big difference. You are more comfortable with who you are and the little can sense that. Great shots! His eyes are amazing. I agree with your comment about having to two years to become Mom as opposed to just weeks.

]]> Comment on can you do the wet noodle? | seeing myself in my toddler’s tantrums by Angel http://themommyhoodmemos.com/2012/02/seeing-myself-in-my-toddlers-tantrums/#comment-9167 Angel Wed, 22 Feb 2012 16:49:46 +0000 http://themommyhoodmemos.com/?p=1613#comment-9167 Oh I can totally relate! When Lala gets frustrated or things aren't the way SHE thinks they should be she lays on the floor. Lol It is so hard not to bust up laughing when she throws these little "protests", I try to ignore them and for the most part they seem to have passed, now if we could only get the head banging to depart as quickly. Then there are days when you tell her no that she puts her head down, walks back to her room, and sits on the bed with her head down. Quite possibly the cutest , funniest thing I have seen. Kids can certainly test your patience, but they do the funniest stuff. :-) Oh I can totally relate! When Lala gets frustrated or things aren’t the way SHE thinks they should be she lays on the floor.

Oh, he gets that from me, huh... I was so glad to read this today and be reminded that my toddler is not the only one who throws himself on the floor when he doesn't like what's going on.
