Epic meltdowns

Merryn has had a couple of epic temper tantrums over the past 24 hours. Yesterday I took her to the WeeZee gym. She was tired and hungry when I told her it was time to go, so we were going down the stairs and she was going so slowly I picked her up. She started screaming. At the bottom of the stairs, she stamped her feet and threw her banana on the floor. I felt bad because I think this happened because she needed lunch and a nap and she was off her schedule. 

Today she had a meltdown because I broke her corn muffin in half. Then later, another one, because I asked her to clean up her toys. 

So we need to work on resisting the tantrum. We can't give in. Or we'll get a lot more of this.

I  glad to say JJ backed me up. 

On another note, I want to stop eating dinner in front of the TV, I want us to sit at the table. I am tired of carrying trays up the stairs.
