Isaiah has discovered that he has a temper. And, he has decided that he needs to continue trying out this temper to see what will happen. He must feel like he hasn't perfected the art of throwing a tantrum yet because he practices frequently throughout the day.
I know its a normal part of being two, but I hope he figures out soon that throwing a temper tantrum equals not getting what he threw the tantrum about in the first place. I don't know how many more tantrums my sanity can calmly take.
We still don't know for sure how being exposed to alcohol prenatally will affect him, but so far I don't think these tantrums are related to that. His mom has said she drank throughout her pregnancy, and my guess is she used cocaine too since she has used regularly for the last 2 years, so we know he was exposed.
The doctor has said it is a good sign that he has hit his developmental milestones within the normal range. But, she says we could still see issues once he gets to be school age. Hopefully not, but we will cross that bridge when we get there.
I hate to admit it, but he does do some questionable things sometimes. He is always getting himself stuck places. He gets stuck under the kitchen chairs quite frequently! Its pretty much a daily occurrence that I hear his little voice yell "Mom! I stuck!!" followed by me trying not to laugh as I discover exactly what he's stuck in this time. The picture below should give you a pretty good idea of what I'm dealing with!
All joking aside, and if I overlook the two year old stuff, this is a pretty awesome little boy.
