Behind it hides one giant attitude! Patton is pretty laid back but when he doesn't get his way, he lets you know.
Patton completely understands no. He knows it means he should stop and he usually does stop but he has to let you know how he feels about it first. One no from Dave or I and Patton talks back. Seriously! He whines, barks, and growls.
The other night I was putting laundry in the washer and Patton was helping by chewing on the hamper. I told him no several times before he barked at me, stomped his foot, turned and walked away. I was in awe. We could be in for some serious trouble.
Hmm...sounds a lot like Joshua. He has discovered the art of yelling when you tell him no. I'm pretty sure he is cussing at me in baby language or he has also discovered the art of temper tantrums and throwing himself on the floor crying. Oh the joys of attitude!

We too are convinced that Patton is cursing at us. I keep blaming it on Dave. I tell him all the time he has to clean up his language!
