Behavior Problems? Anyone???

My little sweetheart ... well lets just say she hasn't been a sweetheart! In fact she has been more like a little spoiled *BRAT* .... She has been grounded and in time out - everything! Nothing works - in fact it has made her even harder! So last night and today - I made this....

A Sweetness Chart! and she gets rewarded for good behavior! and can earn *tokens/points* to earn things - like a date with mom! We just started and can I say WOW - I already have a perfect angel.... YEAH!!! I know you creative moms out there could make one cuter but it was quick and it is easy to velcro up the tokens and she got to help make it! So she cut out the numbers and taped them on and picked the clip art. That way I thought she would even be more EXCITED about it!







What do you moms out there do? Any great ideas I should add into the mix??? I really would love to hear how everyone handles behavior issues - then maybe I won't feel alone! 6yrs old and sassy! - Where did I go wrong?

Sunday July 5th - after dinner we went for a walk to go feed the ducks.... how lucky are we that we live this close to all these fun things to do!
Then on the way back Bre found a "hill"/ "jump" that she could ride over on her bike! She was in heaven! In fact the whole next day she begged to go and for family night she got to choose the activity and it was to go to the hill again!








When we got home Chris crashed on the grass and Bre brought him out a pillow and blanket. Then Kaleb went over to climb under the blanket with him.
Bre got her lemonade stand out and of course didn't sell anything because no one was out plus it was Sunday - but it is her favorite thing to do!

Stadium of Fire

Bre & I had a blast at the stadium of fire! We walked over an hour from where we parked :) since the traffic was horrible and we knew we could walk faster. She was so excited to finally get there.... I let her pick a snack - and we bought some 3D fireworks glasses...








Love this picture! Check out the crazy 3D eyes...


Yes... my camera stinks... it didn't take good pics of the stadium of "FIRE" ....
Those fireworks are LOUD....

Abby hated the loud speakers
Damon was well DAMON....

Barbara gave her cotton candy....








We had so much dang fun! Provo city knows how to party! We missed our boys who stayed home! But we knew Kaleb wouldn't be able to handle the noise and crowds. Thanks Barbara for getting us all there!
