Whiny

Andy is so perfect and so beautiful, but he's really getting into a whiny stage. It seems partly due to separation anxiety and I'm sure it has to do with him wanting to articulate what he wants, but he's frustrated since he really can't. I have been working on him saying "Mama" which he generally thinks is funny when I say it to him. He never says it although I swear the last couple of days he has cried out "mama" when I left the room. I tried to tell him he could have whatever he wanted if he just said that so perhaps it's catching on.
