other behaviours...

In addition to the tamper tantrums, Rose has started to hit, pull hair and bite! Paige never did the biting thing.  Rose does it when she gets mad.  She has bit Paige really hard, me slightly hard, and I have even witnessed her chasing Paige with an open mouth, trying to bite her.  She has ripped out huge chunks of Paige's hair, and has hit me a few times.  She generally gets along with Paige, but if Paige swipes a toy, or gets on Rose's bad side, she will do one of the 3 things. 

I guess the biting thing feels good for her when she's mad.  One day I wouldn't take her out of her high chair fast enough, but I had taken the tray off and she was strapped in.   She started to do her shouty mad thing and then angrily bit her own arm and then foot. 

So far this behaviour has been limited to home, but I did see her give a kid her frowny evil look this morning at her preschool program Christmas party.  I intervened before she could take it any farther. 

The video below gives a little taste of this behaviour....
