Fussy

So Odin is in the habit of throwing fits now. He really loves to clean things, so he screams and screams until we give him a sponge. Then he has to stand on the counter and clean it. His favorite place to be is on the stove where he gets on his hands and knees and washes it with the sponge. He also loves to get on the table. When we don't let him, or when we take him off, he just has a fit. So now we're at the stage where we have to kinda ignore him during a tantrum so he'll learn that tantrums wont get him what he wants, but we're not yet at the stage where we can teach him not to do something.

At school today, a friend of Alyssa's asked me to bring Odin by class today where he had arranged for the teacher to play happy birthday on the piano to get everyone to sing. We didn't tell Alyssa so she was surprised too. It was really cute because everybody in that whole building has kinda adopted Odin so they were happy to sing to him (even though his birthday isn't until tomorrow) and he got so excited when they did it.
