today i took my 2 year old daughter and 8 month old son to the market for groceries. about half way through, my 2 year old decide she wanted me to hold her (she asks, "howd joo" which is her ay of saying "hold you"). i distraced her by tlling her to ride on the side of the cart. she enjoyed that for sometime until she wanted into the cart. i allowed her to rind inside the cart until i had to use it for the gorcery items.
by the time we reached the end of the store she threw the biggest tantrum i have ever seen her throw. the ENTIRE time "howdjoo howdjoo" ... she was crying so hard and long she had snot, tears, and spit running down her face and onto her shirt!!!!
i was so embarassed. i didn't know what to do since i also had my 8month old.
i had my two year old sit in 'time out'. it was about 20minutes until she finally callmed down.
ever have anything liek this happen to you? and what did you do, what do you suggest?
i vented by yelling at my hubby which helped me
