I was at my whit&#39;s end with it, so I called the ped. He said to completely ignore her the next time she bit Dude - no time outs not scolding no nothing . . . and give Dude TONS of praise and lovin&#39; and hugs, etc. Let me tell you - it took about 2 days of completely ignoring her and givin&#39; tons of lovin&#39; to the injured for it to work. She stopped biting just like that (she was 2 1/2).<br /><br />Sorry you&#39;re having a tough time. I&#39;m home for the very first time this summer as well . . . it&#39;s been an adjustment for all of us! I&#39;ve realized that we all need a routine, still. Every Tuesday is hiking day. Every Monday is play with your friends day. Every Wednesday is swim at the pool or outside day. Thursday and Friday depend on if Hubby is home or the kiddos are at day camp while I&#39;m working.<br /><br />But it&#39;s been a BIG hit - took me a month to figure that out, but it&#39;s a lot more pleasant around here.<br /><br />Just some thoughts.<br /><br />Thinkin&#39; about you!common momhttp://www.commonmom.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4820346934363598582.post-31910629743184476102009-07-09T12:06:22.720-04:002009-07-09T12:06:22.720-04:00Yay for starting the new gig!

And I&#39;ll pray you are able to make some headway with Riley. You are a wonderful mom and some kids are just REALLY hard! My Brennon is absolutely draining compared to Kya. I just wonder how I haven&#39;t had a stroke or turned all gray yet! Stay positive and know we&#39;re thinking and praying things go better and better each day!Jenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09954499890345726443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4820346934363598582.post-70021485248677534422009-07-07T13:47:54.087-04:002009-07-07T13:47:54.087-04:00Change is hard but as you said it&#39;s not always bad.
