Testing limits, trying to figure out how/if she can make you go away is part of being secure and knowing you WONT go away no matter how much stink she puts up! <BR/><BR/>Hang in there.. there is light at the end of the tunnel :)<BR/>Amy from RRAmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10822055842774694422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4843700476644280636.post-79426805610174942102008-07-01T11:25:00.000-07:002008-07-01T11:25:00.000-07:00Kris,Caleb refused to eat anything but bread in Ru...Kris,<BR/>Caleb refused to eat anything but bread in Russia. The whole week before we left Russia, I had to carry a loaf of bread with me everywhere I went because he wouldn't touch anything else! I felt like the worst mother, reaching in my bag for some bread as I was eating at a restaurant.:( I think back on it now and it is quite comical BUT not at the time.

Bond first, then work on feeding issues. The attachment is most important right now ... feeding can come later.
