Babies Are No Pushovers

These days, lil Jaeden knows who he can bully and who he can't mess with.

A typical scenario at the food court where mommy and papa have to put him in a stroller, together with ah ma.

J: Amuses himself with looking at his surrounding. Gets bored and whine.

J: Mommy passes a toy. Fiddle with it briefly, gets bored and whine louder.

J: Gives a restless expression, and whine dramatically, coupled with frowning face and pitiful eyes.

Ah Ma: Attempts to unclip J from the stroller, but was stopped by papa.  

J continues whining, arching his body impatiently.

Ah Ma: Baby wants to sleep, let me pat him.

P: No, he won't sleep when he's outside. He wants to be carried. Let him get used to sitting in the stroller.

Ah Ma: Exasperated look.
J serves a double portion of his whining/crying/looks pitiful act.

Ah Ma: 2nd attempt to free J, this time stopped by mommy and J throws a fuss.

Papa relented and allowed ah ma to carry J. J emerges triumphant, and all sounds were muted almost immediately.

Much later, when mommy and papa have parted ways from ah ma, lil J quietly sits in his stroller entertaining himself with his fingers. He sure knows who's the bosses and that mommy and papa won't fall for this act so easily.
