    This morning DD had a tanty because I wouldn't share my pregnancy vitamin capsules with her. I tried to explain that it wasn't yummy, it was medicine, but she didn't believe me.

    Jack (who is only one) will have a huge tanty if I go into the planner screen on the MyStar (similiar to Foxtel IQ) and put anything other than In The Night Garden on. It's ridiculous, as soon as he sees that blue screen he stops whatever he is doing and goes and sits in front of the TV and waits, LOL.

    DS had a tanty this morning because I stirred his porridge - normally I pour the milk on & stir it before I give it to him, this morning I'd put it out & went to the loo & DH gave him the porridge & didn't stir it. I stired it before he started eating to ensure no ho9t spots and then the tanty started. It went on for nearly 10 mins, I thought it was over when I gave him a pear (& he ate that happily) and started again when I asked if he was going to eat the porridge. He raged for another 5 mins before eating the porridge.

    DD has thrown some corkers lately.

    Went on a flight to Sydney. DP made the fatal mistake of putting her into his empty seat while he put some stuff into the overhead locker. Then we transferred her to my knee so he could sit down. Much howling because she now didn't have her own seat. ALL ... THE ... WAY ... TO ... SYDNEY.

    Went swimming. The pool was freezing. We were freezing. DD was so cold she shivered the entire time but she loved it. We stayed in there for a good amount of time but of course not long enough for DD and she screamed the place down when we got her out. The two of us couldn't get her dressed for 10 mins because she was kicking and carrying on so much. When she finally calmed down, I said to her, "did you like going swimming DD?" And she replied in her best Aussie accent, "naaaaaaaaaaaaah."

    Ashton lost the plot this morning cause he couldn't go to creche. He goes to a school creche on the days i do craft and scrapbooking there and we walk past the creche building every morning. I think he thought it was Wednesday lol.

    He also had a tanty one morning in the middle of the shopping centre (approx 10am) cause I wouldn't sit down in the food court to buy something to eat. We have not eaten in the food court for a good year LOL.

    If we even just start to surf through the channel listing, so not actually changing the channel we get screams of "No, I want mine on!"

    Worst one - DD1 was in her bedroom playing. I realised that the TV was still on one of her channels and decided to watch something I wanted. An almighty scream came from the her room. I thought she had hurt herself or something and I panicked. Well it was not that at all, she was howling due to me changing the channel So the TV went off, she was sent back to her room screaming and the screaming continued for about an hour. Not a pleasant day.

    Harry tanties at almost anything. Put on the wrong movie - tantie. If we don't all get out of the car at every single shop we go to - tantie. If we get home and he has been in the car the whole time (for example, picking up the kids from school) - tantie. If he sees you putting the milk in his cup for a chocolate milk - tantie. If you wont give him his half cooked dinner right now because now is when he wants it - tantie.

    You would think he'd be over it by now.. it has never ever gotten him what he wanted.
