The Temper Tantrums Have Started

Here we go! It seems you’ve decided how to express your frustration or when you don’t like or want something 😀 We noticed it a few times ourselves and even the Creche mentioned it in one of your ‘dagboeken’. Due to your limited ability to move around the only thing you can really do from the sitting position is to collapse forward and cry. It’s actually quite ‘funny’ to watch, you’ll understand one day when you have children 🙂

It was also incredibly funny due to the fact that, even though you were protesting, your right hand was reaching out to play with your ‘activity cube’. You didn’t want to back down from your protest but at the same time, you still wanted to play 🙂

You have so much energy in your legs… Mummy and I are getting slightly worried as to what’s going to happen when you’re able to walk. Specifically when we’re in the middle of a department store and you don’t get what you want… those feet are going to stomp!!! 🙁

Three Card Monte

I have a plan and it’s going to make us all rich! It’s my next ‘get rich quick scheme’. All you have to do is find the lady / queen… or in this case… the raisin 😀 It’s quite simple really, all we have to do is find a hustler and beat him at his own game. You have to be ‘eagle eyed’ and out of three cards, find where he put the queen! Simple toch?! 🙂

I thought I’d start you off easy, under which hand is the raisin? If you find it… you get to eat it 🙂 I don’t think you need any more encouragement than that.

I like at the end you had to double check whether there was a raisin under the other hand 😀 I like your thinking little one!

Musical Statues

I don’t know what it is but every time we eat together I tend to find something simple to keep you occupied, this morning was no different. You’re always reaching for the ‘tea towel’ next to your table, so today I thought I would give it to you 😀 It wasn’t really what you expected however you seemed to enjoy yourself. You have many years ahead of you to get your own back on me 😀 I’m already planning how you can help me scare Mummy 🙂

Similar to how we play ‘peek-a-boo’, when I place the towel on your head you’re actually waiting for me to take it off and laugh with you… at one point I wanted to see how long you would sit there for… the results where quite funny 😀
