Two Can Play

I really believe we turned a corner this weekend, with contentment, temper tantrums, etc . . . but I have to document how this boy will even try to control his entering and exiting the van on his terms. Many time now I've had to have help to get him in his carseat.

The boy is so strong and has such a strong grip. To get back at me, we'll return home, where he loves to be, and when I go to get him out of the van, he stiffens his body as soon as the arm straps come off and grabs hold of the grab bar, refusing to let go.

When time allows, I just stand there until he decides he's done protesting. I even ate my fast food standing in the driveway one evening, while Hendrix held on with one hand and studied his next plan for mischief. Two can play this game. :-)
