everyone VS. Clarisse

Training has begun for Clarisse Koh

Being the mum, i can't take it anymore!
She is getting heavier, i have De Quervain's tenosynovitis
As a result of being the new 'baby', everyone can't resist cuddling her (even I)

But this has resulted in her crying/yelling/wailing
everytime she gets put down in her cot or anywhere else
that does not resemble human arms

Little miss grumpy herself

anyway, we've started to let her cry for a while
when she's put down
and sometimes, it's heart wrenching
but you know that she's tricked you (once again)
when you finally succumb and pick her up
and she stops crying IMMEDIATELY
(dodgy!)

(Clari: Yay! You've picked me up! I win.. you deserve a kiss!)
