Rules

I know it's been awhile since I posted. This post is a bit of the reason why it's been so long. I've been busy... disciplining. I find it extremely difficult and exhausting to be consistent at this age where they are testing me at every turn. Part of the problem is this:

disciplining this (Bell) is not easy to do w/ a straight face

same problem with this one (Bean)

They are now working together to get the best of me and recently they've been very successful.

However, I'm not going down without a fight. Yesterday I channeled super-nanny and the girls and I worked up a new set of rules (that will soon be accompanied by pictures that demonstrate the rule)

They did a good a job of coming up with most of these themselves. Interestingly they have no problem listing the rules, just following them. We'll see how the next week or so goes.

Here are a few pics that will soon accompany the list of rules. Can you tell which rule goes with which.

We've been very busy with VBS (or PBS as the girls call it)  this week. They love it! I really love the few "big sisters" there that take such great care for them and keep them busy. I'll do a post at the end of the week w/ some VBS pictures.
