Good Behavior Week One!!

Fayth has started a "good behavior" chart. Too harsh you think, heck NO...she is TWO (28 months) and so stinkin smart!!

She gets rewarded for positive behavior. For example, doing something the FIRST time we ask her! However; in the new plan, she also goes straight into TIMEOUT for the following:

1. A sassy NO! to mom or dad.

2. Opening the refrigerator door. She needs to ask and not help herself...this it the "independent thing!"

3. Walking around in just underwear. (Thanks to Aunt Jill we started this...daddy, too, wants her to wear "bottoms", and now that we are totally potty trained, I'm also on board!)

4. Eating around the house. We eat in our booster chair only. Water and milk can be drank anywhere still and we can eat on the balcony as well.

The first week was VERY successful and she LOVED earning stickers. We looked through a catalog and allowed her to pick something to work towards. I cut it out and taped in on the bottom of the behavior chart. We hung it on the refrigerator and wa-la...she earned her toy with no problems at all!!! We shopped on Thursday and the photos are of her playing her new toys. It was buy two for the price of one!! Manic Martians & Jitterbugs...boy are they fun and LOUD!!

This week, we are working towards Rosie's World Beauty Shop. I think she is a UK small toy. She's kind of like Strawberry Shortcake in the US. Wish us luck!!
