And the Temper Tantrums begin......


Although the temper tantrums only last about 5 seconds....they are starting to happen. You know the hardest thing about it though......is for me to not laugh when Addie has a tantrum! They are so ridiculously funny that it is so hard not to laugh. They can spark over something as simple as she wanted a fork and was given a spoon! Oh well....It is all part of growing up. Distraction is my favorite word! It seems that when a tantrum begins....all you have to do is just show Addie a new book....or point to something new....or ask her a question "Addie what color is this?" and the tantrums completely stop and she is ready to move on. I really wonder what goes through that precious mind of hers sometimes. OK...so maybe the most loving thing for me to do was not to get out the camera and capture these outbursts on film....but I just couldn't help myself.

In this picture Tallulah is staring at Addie wondering what all the fuss is about....you can see Tallulah's black snout right next to Addie's face! Obviously Tallulah was not fazed by the upset!

Look at the bottom lip...could it be poked out any further!

Addie is very profoundly saying "NO" in this picture!
