Everyone talks about the "terrible two's" but what about those delightful little tantrums that children throw BEFORE that magical 2nd birthday?
Lexi's latest action when she gets in trouble is to simply throw herself on the floor and lay there, totally limp. This can occur for serious offenses ("Alexis! DO NOT open the door to the garage and go exploring with Roxy!") or minor transgressions ("no, you don't need another cookie"). Everything is dramatic at our house right now, which I'm guessing means that her "two's" will only be much worse. So for now, I guess we're experiencing the Wonderful Ones!
What a wonderful world, indeed . . .

Oh believe me, I would take this semi-silent protest any day over high pitched screaming and kicking! We definitely experienced some of those with Garrett and I'm sure they are coming with Quinten!
