Harmony At Home

Yeah..........We don't have it.

We have gotten over sleep and daycare issues now it is time to focus on Max's behavior when he's at home.

He isn't bad when we are in public and he is being constantly stimulated but when he's at home (especially when both Charles and I are there) Max is doing a lot of whining and demanding of our attention at all times.

Our friend Jennifer, mother of 1 year old Jonas, sent us a link to Harvey Karp's book The Happiest Toddler on the Block. We used the infant version with some success and I like him for some reason so I'm off to get the book tomorrow.

I'll be writing about our experiences.

We'll probably try a few different books and methods but we are definitely going to work on this!

Max is such a sweet boy and I can imagine how difficult it must be to be unable to communicate. I think to myself that it must be frustrating for him to see Charles and I converse and he can't do it.

We've got to get to the bottom of this and get inside the toddler brain as much as possible!

We don't like to get frustrated with Max. It's normal sometimes I know but we love him so much and we don't want him to be frustrated. This is our quest right now!

I will be posting pictures of the house soon. I keep saying that so it will happen.
