Trouble

Tuesday after Gymboree Dani and I went to Target, just like we always do.  But this time, right as we were starting our grocery shopping (after browsing the clothes and other fun stuff) she decided she was done and tried to stand up and jump out of the cart.  She was buckled in, but that didn't really seem to stop her.  I tried to sit her down, but she just screamed like a psycho at the top of her lungs.  I tried giving her mu phone with a Disney show to watch, but that is already old hat and she didn't want any of it.  All she wanted was "down".   I couldn't even just ignore her and try to shop since she would have gotten hurt as she flung herself from the cart.  So, I carried her screaming over to the Starbucks area to sit for a time out.  I really really didn't want to go home.  I honestly don't think she would have got the ramifications of that at this age anyway and I really needed to get my groceries.  So we got a soft pretzel and sat for a bit.   I eventually got my shopping done, but she was still loud and not happy. . . .  I may have to go without her for a bit until she outgrows this screaming crazy phase.

Trying to get her quiet to eat her pretzel.  Thankfully we are very well known at Target, so most people there knew this wasn't her normal behavior. :)

THEN on the way home, I gave her the squeezer of fruit and bag of yogurt melts she had been eating in the cart.  We do this all  the time, but today she decided to squeeze the pureed apples and broccoli ALL over herself and the seat and dump out all the yogurt on top of it.  The terrible 2's are here early!
