We have been having some behavioral issues with Ezekiel lately. Everyone keeps saying "don't worry, it's his age". We aren't necessarily worried - it is more like exhausted! Last night he screamed for FOUR HOURS straight. Today, i brought him to the library (where he is usually an awesome baby). I told him no screaming and no pulling books off shelves. We were there for 5 minutes when he started screaming and pulling books of shelves and having a full blown temper tantrum! I gave him two chances and then I said we would leave if he didn't listen to me. Well, he didn't listen to me, so I wheeled his stroller right out of there (during a major tantrum in which EVERYONE stopped and stared and didn't even hold the door for us to get out!) So, I get out to the car and try to put him in his carseat when he attacks me. Next thing I know, there is a cop sauntering over "just to make sure everything is in order, Maam" /sigh How embarrassing.
Needless to say, I told him that he had lost privileges. When we got home, he went around the house finding his favorite toys and saying "mine privilege, not yours. Mine privilege... not yours" etc.
I did break down and bring him to the park to play today though. I had to wear him out!
Here are a couple of pictures from today. He needs a haircut! But our hair cutting place shut down and I don't know who I trust to do a cute job.
Here he is on the swings. I just finished telling him that he has stinky feet. He loves having stinky feet!
