Discipline

Alright. So I realized I need to start some hard core disciplining with Ethan. I know, I know. He's only 8 months old. But I don't want one of those bad babies. You know the kind. Screaming, stealing toys, pulling hair.... So we figured if he is negatively impacting himself or someone else, it's go time. My first two tries were failures. A couple weeks ago while I was in Utah, I asked my mom what to do when he bit my arm. She told me to tap his mouth with my fingers and say "no". One bite and surprised scream later, I put the scolding into action. He grabbed onto my hand, smiled up at me, and playfully rolled on his back. Strike number one. The second time was today. He keeps trying to chew on the cords to the computer. So when he got close, I picked him up and as sternly as I could muster, said "no". He laughed and batted at my hair.
