More painting being done by daddy today so we went swimming. It was lovely just the 2 of us, lots of cuddles in the pool when I held him. His face just lights up in the pool. My wee water baby!
We were in the changing room after swimming and he started hitting me again when I was trying to get him ready. At one point he pushed me full force and I lost my balance. I managed to stable myself before falling! He doesn’t realise how strong he is! Or maybe he does!
I don’t like to shout at him as I know a lot of his behaviours can’t be helped, but I will talk to him sternly. He HATES being told off! Soon we have tears and then once he knows I’m not angry any more, he jumps on me and squeezes me for tight cuddles. I know that calms him down.
So, we were an extra 15mins in the changing room!
