Terrible Two Tantrum

We got a taste of what's surely to come on Friday night. Little Hanky threw a super sized, nasty, throw-down, air suckin', FIT! And it was all over which shoes he wanted to put on. Yes, it seems that shoe selection is enough to elicit a full blown terrible two tantrum. He would bring his Vans to Brad and he would start to put them on, then change his mind all of the sudden, and want his boots. This went on for about 15 minutes and by the time it was over, all the shoes were in the top of his closet and the boy had gotten himself so out of control that it was hard to bring him back. The devil himself had moved in for just a little while. Finally Brad was able to calm him down by taking him out of the room and talking softly to him. Very sweet and patient Daddy. Very frustrated and impatient Mommy.



The funniest thing about all of this is that our buddy Graham was here and witnessed it all! He is single and i'm sure will NOT be having children ANY TIME SOON!

I love that you caught it on camera. Those pictures are too funny! I threw a tantrum over shoes the other day...so I can relate to little Henro. By the way, his hair is beautiful! We can't wait to see ya'll Wednesday!
