We've put a big emphasis on communication for a long time with Liam. We reward him for communicating calmly and effectively by giving him what he wants when he asks for it. This has led to at least two things: Liam's ability to communicate very well, and Liam's expectation that he gets whatever he wants! Recently, we've begun to feel that he's started to get a bit bossy :) The other night, he asked for his dog pajamas by doing the sign for dog and saying 'woof woof' while we were changing him. Usually, we would comply, but the recent cold weather doesn't fit well with a t-shirt for bed time, so we wanted to put him in warmer pjs. This was not acceptable to his highness, who definitely let us know. After much protest, we got him into his warm pjs and then put his dog pajamas on top :)
