Temper Tantrum

Temper tantrums are quickly becoming a regular thing at our house.  He has a bit of a temper...wonder who he gets that from?!

When Alex doesn't get something he wants, he has a temper tantrum.  When Alex doesn't like something Mommy or Daddy says to him, he has temper tantrum.  When Alex doesn't want to eat dinner, he has a temper tantrum.  You get the point - lots of temper tantrums...and two VERY frustrated parents.

Instead of giving into what he wants (or doesn't), I usually let him cry it out.  But, man this kid has a set of lungs on him and can cry for what seems like forever!

Today, I just let him cry and took a picture of him in one of his finest moments of the day:

HAHAHAhaha those days.....those are days I will not miss, those are the moments when i think..."i don't want to be your mommy"
Paiden did the say thing...and it would last forever! so i started carrying him to his room and sitting him on his bed, then i would get right down in his face and say. whenever you're done crying you can come and get a hug, but as long as your crying...you're in your room. boys are so sweet and fun;-)
