We're back again and so many things have been left out of this little blog. Oh well!
Caleb has become SUCH a cuddler/hugger/kisser lately. Randomly throughout the day he'll come over and give me hugs and kisses. I LOVE IT. Who wouldn't? During this last trip he spent a lot of time in the stroller and eventually figured out how to pull me in next to him for a hug in the stroller. So adorable.
The only thing is that his kisses are totally open-mouthed. I think this is fairly typical for his age, but still we're trying to teach him to pucker for a kiss. This is how yesterday's attempt went:
So often when we try to give a negative reaction/consequence for an unwanted action of his, he ends up thinking it's a game or funny. Last week he was extra into pulling my hair. One day I got fed up and used a stern voice and mean face to say no, and I may have even pointed my finger. He laughed. Yes, he laughed. The sterner I got, the funnier it was.
Moments like these can either be maddening or funny, so we try to just let them be funny. :)
HAHAHA! It looks like Tyler's going in for the kill on someone else other than Caleb at the end there! :) Also, I'm glad you're back.. I've been wondering about you. Keep em coming!
