Temper, Temper!

Eva finally threw her first real temper tantrum, and it was in public, of course! I was at the UPS store and she got mad because I wouldn't let her pull greeting cards out of the display stand. She started throwing a fit, so I picked her up, put my hand over her mouth to muffle her yelling, strapped her into the stroller and gave her a sippy cup to distract her. It worked long enough to get us out of there. I knew I shouldn't have tried to run errands while she was tired, but I had gotten sick of waiting for her to go to sleep and finally decided to go anyway, hoping she'd drift off in the car. I won't make that mistake again.
