My Lovey

Tristan is going through this stage where he's trying to see who is the boss by being argumentative and defiant. Time outs and corner time and taking away toys and games is not working! The whole time he's on time out he's screaming, "let me go!! No time out!" I tell him, "be quiet or you will be there longer" and he just keeps yelling. 4 minutes could easily turn into a half hour before he's quiet for a full time out. I'm such a softy, it never goes longer than maybe 6 or 7 minutes. No wonder he's so hardheaded, because I'm softhearted *giggle*. I know he'll grow out of this soon. But it seems like a long time from now. He'll do something totally naughty, and then give me the sweetest smile and ask for hugs and kisses. My little irresistible lovey :) And he now knows his ABCs!!!
