As far as the foot on the table, Davis will learn those manner as he grows.
Sometimes as parents we stress ourselves over the insignificant things with our babies.
Been there, done that!

While giving Emma a bath the other night, she kept reaching for the little stand thingy we keep by the bathtub with toys, soap, etc. She would reach, pull, and almost send the contents into the tub with her. I said NO and redirected her. But she realllllly wanted to do it again, and again. My NO had no affect. Well, after the four or fifth time, my NO drew a reaction. Her bottom lip came out, her eyes filled up with those big crocodile tears, and she cried like it was the end of the world. Her daddy came in to check what I had done to the baby. I was laughing. I guess it’s not funny when a toddler does it…</p> I have read that around 7 months, children learn to recognize the tone of voice you use when you say NO.
