1) his constant wrestling with Vegas, our dog.
2) still not walking with me, coming when called, or listening to "stop".
Vegas is very tolerant of Henry, but if she is very sleepy after a walk, her tolerance level goes down. I tried to stop him yesterday from throwing himself on her while she was in this sleepy state. I tried blocking him and explaining to him that Vegas was sleepy. He tried head butting me. Repeat for 10 leaps on Vegas.
Matt says he knows how to push my buttons... wow they are smart at manipulation! At 2!?!
Ultimately I was successful because I put him to bed, but he was not able to limit his behaviour.
From the little I know about the brain, the frontal lobe is responsible for telling yourself to inhibit your behaviour and of course, toddlers frontal lobes aren't all up and running (Its not fully functional until we are 24!)
