The fours are definitely our biggest challenge so far. Gamble's got two new tactics that he employs at every turn.
The first is the ol' reverse psychology. Whenever we get upset with him, or we tell him he can't do something, he says, forlornly, "Okay. Oh well. I guess I'm just a bad boy." Or "I guess I'll just go to my room, then. I really don't want to, but..."
The second is outright defiance. The other day, he told Nicole adamantly that she needed to go get one of his toys before he would wash his hands.
I'm sure I know where he gets the second one. All the time we tell him that he can do something he wants to do if only he'll do something for us now.
I guess the foot's on the other hand now, huh?
