RE: I'm trying REALLY hard not to laugh at her...
Gabrielle is a wonderful fit pitcher. I swear, my first was nothing like her! We went to do errands yesterday and she pitched fits in the consignment store (when I took the toy stroller away from her so we could leave) and again at the library, when I made her get into the stroller so we could leave. With A, I could just say, "in two minutes we're going bye-bye"....not with Princess crabby pants!
Her fits are to throw herself backwards and kick her feet. So if you try to pick her up during a fit (and make a quick escape out of a store....) you either get kicked or you're trying to keep from dropping her backwards on her bean head. Sigh....
The one that really cracked me up was when G pitched a fit and A decided to lay down beside her to give her pointers. A demonstrated that if she were to lay on her tummy and swing ALL her limbs, she would make a lot bigger production and more noise. LOL
