Seeing as Dejan and I don't go around hitting ourselves when we get mad or frustrated, nor do we spit our drinks onto the floor, why is Ava doing this? It's like children are animals. They poop and pee on themselves, throw up wherever is convenient, have this never ending dripping snot, spit everything out of their mouths, throw tantrums and hit things. Why is this? :-)
Potting training is well underway, the snot has stopped for the moment (but I have purchased stock in Kleenex Brand Tissues), I have designated a sponge to cleaning the floor (you know, for all the liquids Ava decides to spit out), the tantrums get ignored to Ava's aggravation hence the hitting herself (I guess to get my attention), and the idea of doing this all over again makes me shutter...don't ask me about another baby and don't ask me what I did all day, I might just hit you! Oh wait; maybe I just answered my original question.
PS. Don' let me fool you, Ava is my biggest love and I'm enjoying every gross, hitting, tantrum. If she's the only child I get, I am the luckiest person alive!

You ARE lucky! Again - i am sure you are exaggerating about her 'bad' behavior. You are just making yourself look bad ;-)
Oh - and remember. The boys had a peeing contest this summer placing glass jars of urine on the tank of the toilet to see who could collect more. WAY grosser than spitting!
her bad behavior plays out like this....Me, "No Ava", Ava, "uugghh", hits herself in the chest, does her slow motion fall to the floor and either lays flat on her back or flat on her stomach, and does this fake cry while looking at me to see what am going o do about it. funny right!?
peeing is way grosser than spitting, so I guess I'll stop mking myself look bad. :-)
