A journey through the wild ride of being a first time mother

You can read every book on the shelf about being a parent and what to expect with your new baby, but the only true preparation is experiencing it first hand.

Terrible Twos at 13 months????


This sweet little monster can throw one heck of a temper tantrum. She is 13 months old and is already getting into her terrible 2's. It is quite frustrating for all of us. She can walk on her own but for some reason she is scared to walk down the hall so she wants you to hold her hands and walk with her. We will do it with her sometimes, like when it is time for dinner we will talk with her down to the kitchen and put her in her chair. But when she doesn't get her way or get to go the direction she wants to go she throws a terrible fit and throws herself on the floor and starts crying.
Most of the time we just ignore her and turn away from her and when she sees this she will crawl around or over you until she is in front of you so you can see her. I hope she grows out of this stage very fast. She can communicate very well and will tell you what she wants, which usually she just does the sign for "more" and says berries which sounds like bee. We have spoiled her a lot so not spoiling her now is a little hard, but she needs to understand that we cant constantly give her everything she wants and that she needs to eat things other then just fruit.
On Wednesday we are headed down to California for a long weekend for my cousins wedding. We are really looking forward to Kendall (and Jason) getting to meet everyone and to spend time with all the family. It is going to be a lot of fun. I will let everyone know how the plane ride down there goes. I will also be taking lots of pictures (the camera is already packed in my bag so i don't forget it).
