Terrible Twos
I think Ian finally hit the terrible twos… he’s starting to repeat “no nononono” and screech when he doesn’t get his way. I think I’m enjoying this a bit more than Jackie because I have no problem telling him no.
Jackie seems to be unable to scold him at times- especially when he slams the laptop lid closed. She requires continual prodding to get after him when he misbehaves. I’m sure she’ll get the hang of it soon enough.
Right now he’s screaming in the kitchen because Jackie won’t pick him up while she’s cutting strawberries.
Fun times.
What can I say….I’m a pushover. Half the time it’s easier to just let him do this thing and listen to the screaming. He won’t stop until he gets what he wants, so if you give in, then he knows he can use that as a way to get what he wants. I just have more patience to endure the screaming and Jesse doesn’t. :)
