Sixteenth Month
The redirection method of parenting is allowing for me to keep half my hearing. As Jada prepares each morning to scream 76 times each day (somehow I see her brushing her hair in front of a vanity saying this to herself), I find the great logic in ignoring the behavior, but the long term damage to my husband and my ears to be of concern. Greater good, my friends. Greater good. Derek and Stacy have felt the brutality of each high note more than any other outsider, but the daily soprano is starting to make me feel nauseous. And in some weird way it makes me laugh only because she is our kiddo. Don't you dare bring your screaming kid near me:) Back to the point - redirecting her to get something is my secret weapon for now. And any other advice would be helpful...

My quality of life just got better since you started blogging!!!! I can't wait!!! I'll write more later- I have a puppy licking the heck out of the kids and their running around screaming. Good times.
BTW- IDAHO is affordable with backyards, cultured schools (well that's a bit debatable) and jobs!!!!! You can get a pool too!
Yakima is afordable and you KNOW it! Plus, Jada would definitely learn Spanish. Congrats on you, ripper, and joy doing the blog thing...I tried to start one and got frustrated when I had to pick a URL...decisions, decisions
Jada is so cute and I feel for you on the screaming. Cooper is throwing tantrums where he throws himself backwards and slams his head on the ground..and then proceeds to roll around on the ground screaming until he gets what he wants.
oh ladies, ladies, ladies,.....just ask me if I have ever seen a tantrum. My boys could teach classes on them. It's so nice to hear you talk about them because it feels great to know that you guys are going through the same things that I am.
Hey- why aren't you hos commenting on my blog????
