Wade is throwing a humungeous tantraum ATM... about his fourth of the day. He fell asleep between 11 and 12 noon. I thought he'd wake up in a better mood, but no, just the same, simply needed to recharge his batteries. I reckon I've spent more time in here talking about Wade than Niall since he was born! Niall BTW slept from 1am to 6.30am!!! But Wade woke us up at 3am after he came into our room wanting a bottle and a bit of a whinge as if to say "well if Niall isn't going to wake you up I'd better do it!" I didn't get angry or annoyed with him though... I guess he can't help teething and having a cold but today's tantrums are totally perplexing... flinging himself around, snot bubbles bursting out of his nose the works! I'm trying to act all serene but it's really getting to me, especially when he aims things at Niall like one of Verity's school shoes he picked up the other day Every so often I'll sit down next to him and say stuff like "so, you're feeling angry? (He'll yell "NO") or I'll try to completely take his mind off it and talk about some weird topic like caterpillars and pretend one is living under a nearby blanket and wants to be his friend... that sometimes works, gets a smile before he realises what he's doing and returns to being grumpy! LOL In the end I think he's just a human tornado and needs to just blow off his energy naturally. Thankgod I don't have to do stuff or be places... he just wouldn't co-operate at all and then I'd really get stressed out. I know it's just a phase which will pass when his teeth are through.
