Mine used to cry every time I wore a towel on my head in the morning. He also cried and screamed the other week when I came home from the hairdressers with a fringe!

aww, poor wee man! very cute though!

Last week Nova was on her playmat playing with her musical toy going above her. It was running out of batteries so I asked DH to change them so the music wasn't so slow.. well after attempting to use a screwdriver to open the latch, he decided the electric drill would be quicker - with DD still lying there.. My poor baby screamed the house down as you can imagine and every now and again he taunts her by walking around making the drill sound - Yes he's a mad man!

Ella's terrified of Santa Claus- at the daycare xmas party she started crying as soon as she saw him and had to go into another room until he left. several other kids were also quite scared of him, appartently it is quite a common (and understandable) fear.

Eimear is scared of the vacuum cleaner. She runs to the other end of the house until I'm finished.

She was also petrified of balloons initially but has kinda gotten over it.

They're both scared of the noise of tape coming off a box.

hehehe kaiz, Jimmy is the same - yesterday he squealed in delight and then as soon as I'd vacuumed a small patch of carpet he lay down and rolled around in joy!  Perhaps he was trying to tell me I need to vacuum more often lol.

Chloe hates having her hair washed too.

And she can't stand the Heffalump movie. She loves Winnie the Pooh but we haven't managed to get past the first ten mins of that movie, ever.

She says "Uh Oh" whenever the TV gets turned off, does that count? Lol.

When Harry was about 8 months old he used to be petrified of this little wind-up dinosaur. So we did "exposure therapy" lol, showing him it was ok, and now it's one of his favourite toys!

At the moment, the gremlins are scared of moths and gloves.

Maya is still scared of Santa and anything else that is a person in a costume - clowns etc.

Maddi is just scared of strange people and loud noises. Complete opposite to her sister.

Callum was inconsolable the first time I wore my hair down loose and curly. I didn't realise that was the problem till I tied it back and he calmed down

jett loves the vacum, he even turns it back on if ive turned it off.

he hates the sound of the water going down the plug tho, and he hates little dogs LOL
but loved big dogs
eg: his godparents have a huge rotty (whos harmless) & a tiny fluff ball thing jett loves the rotty but screams histerically when ever the rat dog comes near him.

he also hates the sound of dh's best mates voice he cries at that.
& he used to cry whenever anyone sneezed, but i think hes over that now

Okay McKayla at the moment is scared of the dark, and of monsters

And her latest is that there might not be space for her once Andrew is here (she told me last week) and today it was what if her brother doesnt like her. (she is besotted with him already but realise things will change when he is here but she doesnt know how yet and she doesnt deal that well with the unknown.)

Before she use to be scared of vacuum cleaners. But over that now.

DS is scared of the house alarm! He often gets the keys and manages to activate it, then panics and runs off crying and wimpering....

We have the occasional toy issue also, Liz - my brother gave DS a toy chain saw and it took a week before DS would even touch it. You would put it in the middle of the floor and he would walk circles around it. Now he plays with it quite happily, sound and all!
