This kid is non-stop these days. Now that she is mobile, we are beginning to deal with her first bouts of tantrums. We will pick her up, and she won't like it, so she'll start to cray and flail around. We're trying to teach her that it doesn't really work that way. Hopefully in time she'll learn.

One thing we're doing to get that to happen is that when I hold her and she starts to scream, Jenn and I will calm her down together and then once she shows that she has stopped crying I'll give her to Jenn or we'll put her on the floor. Hopefully she'll associate the stopping of crying with getting what she wants. Hopefully.
