If only I knew ...

Butter wouldn't melt, right???

From the moment my little sausage roll was born he was a pretty contented fella... wasn't particularly demanding, pretty chilled out, laid back etc etc. People would say "oh you wait untill he is crawling, then you will know about it!" but no, he was still his nonchalant little self.  Then others would say "oh you wait untill he is walking, THEN you will know about it!" but still he was so laid back he was practically horizontal!  I was foolish, I became cocky, if only I knew...

The other day it happened ... and for a moment I was so shocked by what had just taken place that I was literally stunned into complete silence.  From literally no where my son ... my angel, my oh so perfect little angel had a tantrum. An actual tantrum ... not unusual for a child I know.  I've experienced them many a time from other people's children, it's water off a ducks back and I knew that this would happen sooner or later.  He threw himself on the floor, gave out the the shrillest scream i'd ever heard, kicked his legs and threw his arms about ... the meer sound of my voice apparently made his drama even worse.  All I had said was 'no' ....

After about 3 minutes of this, he gave up and come over for a cuddle.  He recovered from his little diva fit pretty quickly ... but seriously what the hell Blake!? Random! We have since had several of the dreaded tantrums... and to be honest I find them pretty flipping hilarious now :P But seriously, seriously does any one know when these will stop? I've heard it's 16? :O

How Blake made me smile today: While hanging the washing out on the airer, we had the usual - Mummy puts clothes on while Blake takes the still wet clothes off scenario.  I said the usual "No Blake!" and moved him away ... to which is responded with "rooooaaaaaarrrrrr" (this is his new monster sound) and then ran away.  Do you think he is trying to tell me I sound like a monster :s xxxx
