Bad Habits...

Posted by Dawn at Monday, November 26, 2007
Caleb has been adding more bad or quirky habits to his list he already has. Here is the list..

1) He loves to pull his hair..



2) He loves to suck his thumb and fingers



3) He loves to bite his fingers



4) Because he loves to suck and bite his fingers, he doesnt fancy his pacifier at times...And when I put his pacifier in his mouth, and take away his fingers from his mouth, he starts wailing...

5) He loves to rub his 2 ankles with each other such that they become red...More vigorously so when he is cranky and wailing. So, sometimes I would make him wear his shoes or socks at home to prevent him from hurting his ankles.



6) During feeding, he would still try to fit in his fingers or thumb into his mouth. So, its really difficult trying to feed him peacefully as he will end up wailing because I remove his fingers from his mouth during feeding...



7) He has not learnt to use his teether. So, he gets cranky when he cannot put it in his mouth to bite.



8) He bullies us by crying in the middle of our shopping and expect a feeding. So we have to stop and feed him on the spot.



9) He has recently been trying to slip down from his sitting position either from a pram or his bed. Here is playful Caleb intentionally trying to slip down as he arches his back for his legs to push himself down..



Here is another picture of him sitting down nicely on the bed and after a while, he starts slipping himself down intentionally..



Ok, he is trying to go down..



and down....(blurred image because he was struggling too much)



And then finally...



Here is a video of him sliding down...(nobody taught him to do such a thing. Where did he learn from?!)

My twins do the exact same things. :) I think it's their way of discovering the world around them

Same Same! Jed's been pulling at his hair since day 1. He also arches his back and lift his butt to slide down the stroller or rocker! Haha... that is very frustrating cos it means he wants to be carried liao... As for rubbing the feet together, so far not red yet but he will rub till the grime comes off! So if you look at his feet closely, they're covered with black and grey dirt!!! XP Oh, he also cried in the middle of our shopping. So paiseh.... only that I must carry him off crying and frantically try to find a nursing room. Sigh.....
