Anatomy of a Tantrum.

In a very recent post, I alluded to the fact that my child is impatient, especially when it comes to meal time. Now, yes, I know that babies are impatient. I don't hold it against her, really, at least not most of the time...

BUT.
This picture you see below is the beginning of a timeline of how she acts even after she eats. Ya know, when I'm trying to eat? I gave her a favorite toy to 'distract' her...and she even is given a few Cheerios for dessert.

 Calm. For now.

 Not noticing I have a meal yet. (Or that I'm taking pictures.)
 Then, she just FREAKS.
 So I take away the tray because it's all ending up on the floor, anyway. Uh oh.
 Trying to distract herself...
 ...and it doesn't work.
 Oh, boy girl!

(Yes, I considered the fact that maybe she just hates having her picture taken.)
