temper tantrums!

Andrew's starting his temper tantrum phase...i think its too soon for him to throw fits but he is now totally capable of frustrating me and pj...more on pj though coz well that guy seriously lacks patience..and so does our son!
How do you discipline a 15 month year old? I'm totally lost..so the child psychiatrist i spoke to told me...to firmly say no and then distract him..sounds easy..
Well..that didn't work..he went on to throw everything out of the cupboard then when i carried him away..he threw himself to the ground and started screaming..oh boy..i can't believe he's only 1.If he does it at home..i honestly don't mind..let him scream and shout and i still won't give in...Its a whole different thing when you're in mall..
Andrew's walking now so he hates being in a stroller when we're out.. he is now able to lead you where he wants to go..and well he saw the lego store..Lots of kids and color..We didn't mind him playing..but after 15 mins..we had to leave..and the cheerful little boy suddenly started screaming..crying..and yes..heads started to turn. He wanted this truck with lego in it. I didn't want to get it coz i know he's just gonna get sick of it after a day..but to keep him quiet pj bought it..
The toy...*sigh* which was about 30 bucks is juz in the box and ofcourse he totally lost interest..oh well.
There are days where i feel like pulling my hair out but there are good days ofcourse.
Andrew's really attentive...it can be good and bad..He knows how to put the dvd into the player ..so anything that looks like a dvd he tries to put in the dvd player..even the ps games..hahaha.
Now when he sees me picking up his toys he actually helps me to clean up.
Pj and i were talking on how many kids we want to have...i know i want another one or maybe 2 more? I just don't think i can have another baby yet coz andrew's my baby..its a weird feeling thinking of another baby...

    You should watch Supernanny every Thursday, 10pm on Arts Central. It's a very good show for you to learn how to handle you baby's tantrums and at the same time discipline him.
