About two weeks ago, Joey hit a new phase. I'm pretty sure that it was concurrent with a gigantic jump in his speech; he's now much more vocal, and understandable, and able to convey what he wants.
It's this last that I think is the issue now; because he's able to communicate, he gets upset when we don't do what he wants. Really upset. I think it's because he got very used to us jumping whenever we understood what he wanted, but now, when we don't, he melts down. Every. Single. Time. There's screaming and crying and stamping of feet. Frequently, there's running away, with the occasional crumpling to the floor. It's good times all around, really.
Sam had a similar phase, but I don't think it was quite as intense. Happily, we're not expecting it to last long; it's a toddler phase, after. Good or bad, those never last.
