Good morning everyone,
Ok I am officially in a bad mood today, as the nanny did not pitch for work again, this time she did not even phone or sms. I am really starting to get irrirated with her these days, I cannot be off work today with same excuse as last week, so I had to arrange another nanny that looked after CJ once, but she is extremely expensive asks R 200.00 for the day, but what can I do, I have to cough up - luckily I know Cj likes her and she is good with him - very qualified and professional! It's just as if my current nanny is taking everything for granted and thinks we owe her everything! I am going to have a big talk with her tommorow afternoon!
Anyway, we had a bad night with bath time again, I really don't know what it is with CJ these last few weeks, but he refuses to bath, and he used to love his bath time. He screams blue murder the whole bath through and tries to get out the whole time, well last night I decided I am not going to sit through the whole thing and bare with a screaming child, I ignored him while he screamed and after about 10 min he stopped, then he looked at me very confused, I thought ok, it's over I can take him out now, then he started screaming again - I took him out, and made him sit there crying, and went out the bathroom, when he stopped I went back, and as soon as I try drying him or putting his nappy on he would start again - then we just repeated the whole process, I go out and leave him there to cry it out, saying that mommy is unhappy when you cry like this and I will leave you to finish, after 5 times of repeating it, he eventually lied down quietly for me to put his nappy on and dress him, after I told him to get up for his pants, he came forward and gave my a hug, and did not let go, shame I think he felt bad. I am so tired of this tantrumming, I don't know if I'm doing the right thing. Do you guys think you get toddler-menopause / toddler-life crisis LOL - coz if there was something like that CJ definetely is going through it!LOL!
Shit, I have to go quickly I forgot about a meeting I'm 10min late for, will catch up again later! Sorry I only talked abut myself now!
See ya later!
