Emily had the walkie-talkie and was “chewing” on the antennae. So, I said ‘no’ to her and she stopped. A few moments later, she had walked over to the coffee table with the walkie-talkie and Ron and I watched as she slowly put the antennae back into her mouth. At the same time, in a very firm voice, we said “no!” to Em.
She took the antennae out, set it on the coffee table, looked at us, out popped the bottom lip and the crocodile tears started. She then proceeded to slide the walkie-talkie off the table and sit down on the floor.
A bit later, Abby went and got it, started to put it in her mouth but I guess remembered Emi’s experiene, stopped, popped out the bottom lip and started to fake-cry. Ron told her she was a “faker.” 😉
Talk about those bottom lips though. They sure can stick them out! And it’s sooooooooo pathetic! A true pout-turn-cry!
But, now we know they understand ‘no!’. 🙂
