And so it begins...

Lucas hasn't even been 1 for a week and he is already throwing tantrums! What happened to my sweet baby? Now he has a mind of his own and thinks he can do whatever he wants. Yesterday morning was the biggest tantrum yet. It was time to get out of the bath. I pulled the plug, got down the towel and went to get Lucas. Lucas started screaming, raced over to the other side of the bathtub, pushed down the plug and stared at me. I think he was waiting for me to smile because he was so smart. Instead I pulled the plug and tried to pick him up. He started screaming even louder, arched his back, and wiggled his way until I didn't have a good grip and had to set him down. Naughty Shamers! Needless to say he won that round. Today I took all the toys our first, let the water go down completely and then tried to get him out. It worked a little better.

Lucas new favorite thing is Thompson's cage. Thompson doesn't think it is so great...it really isn't big enough for the both of them.


Somehow Lucas locked himself in the cage. It is out new time out spot :-) 

I can't wait to see what this kid comes up with next!

You can tell Thompson is SO over Lucas being in there. Lol.

Oh my goodness, I'm so over the tantrum phase. A week ago Grace basically spent the entire day in time out. She'd throw a tantrum because she dropped her toy, then would throw a tantrum because I put her in time out. Lets just say its a good thing we didn't need to go anywhere that day. I hope Lucas grows out of it fast! :)

Isn't that the truth! I swear its not the terrible twos its the terrible 1 1/2! Evelyn is doing the same thing! Now she is refusing to take naps during the day. I think I took those naps for granted! :(
