ohhhhhhhhhhhh am I feeling this right now. My charge is soooooo like your little Carly!!!!
I took her to a interactive museum a few weeks ago and she had the BIGGEST, ALMIGHTIEST tantrum in the middle of the floor. I honestly was just staning there laughing to myself like some madwoman loser as i wasnt quite sure what to do first. She rolled around for 7 or8 minutes screaming her head off, kicking out, pulling her own hair, smacking the floor, crying. . . .I stood at a distance,still laughing to myself. . . then left her there. Im not joking Kay!!! I picked up the buggy, gathered up our bags of lunch etc etc off the floor where she had thrown them, took the toy off her that she had been holding and walked off. She laid screaming for about another 2 mins so I kept walking(slowly, mind!) She then suddenly noticed I was going and not watching her and she got up and ran after me.
Thats when I realised half the museum was standing still watching me. But hey ho, at least she was quiet eventually huh!!!!!
