Poor Bubs :(

DN's a pretty tough cookie.

1. He has never cried at his vaccinations or blood tests.

2. Now that he's older, I've started scolding him for unacceptable behaviour (hitting people, throwing his toys in frustration, shouting when he doesn't get his way), but so far, he's NEVER CRIED. We can see his lower lip turning down and quivering, his eyes well up, but so far? No tears. This one's got some pride. PF and I have our work cut out for us, sigh.

3. When he falls down, 8 out of 10 times, he'll just cry a bit in shock, then pick himself up and carry on. He's not really a cry baby. The only time he'll cry is when it's really painful. Like this morning when he fell on the road as we were walking to the car. :( The poor bubs cut his lip, which bled and swelled to twice its size immediately.

But being the tough cookie that he is, he stopped crying a little while later and gestured at me to sit back because I was leaning forward and fawning over him in his car seat.

DN : "Sit back, Mama, you're embarrassing me."
