My nephew saw this chart on our pantry door and tried to explain it to my sister. So, here you are Alicia. Sorry about the shadow--it was a weird time of day. Allow me to explain how the chart works: Each square represents something naughty that the kids are wont to do and the discipline that will be taken thereafter. We refer to the chart so the chart is the bad guy--not Mom and Dad. An entire FHE lesson was dedicated to the understanding of the chart. If you spit, you will get a spoonful of vinegar. If you sass, you will get a drop of Tabasco on your tongue. If you hit, you will lose a favorite toy (in extreme cases, the toy will be smashed with a hammer no more to be played with). If you have a nuclear blow up, you will spend a goodly amount of time in your room.8.04.2010

what a great idea! no blame for the parents. i might need to try this, although i do not have the artistic skills shown here.
CONGRATS on RUBY. such sweet pictures and a sweet baby.
Thanks for the post! Now I can see what Nick was talking about. And the pictures are awesome!
awesome...we might need to do this too.
Best chart ever!
I just think it is weird!
Hah!! That's just awesome!... oh by the way, I saw that you had commented on my blog, and for some reason it wouldn't let me view it. Thanks for the comment either way. ;)
Thank you so much for your sweet comment. I think it's what I needed to hear. I have LONGED for another baby, after my miscarriage feeling like we might have just been done and now I am blessed to have another. I have felt a little guilty not being SUPER excited about it...yet. He will absolutely LOVE her i KNOW IT. he just breaks my heart when he cries, but he's a little whiney. =) hope he and Sam get to meet and play again.
AnD, I also wonder if i want to share my feelings for my only guy with another (even though i would and would love it). ha i am rambling now. funny how you just have to learn to adapt and feelings change quickly.
Anonymous,
We just think you're weird, and dumb.
Amber this is the Best! Funny that we have these same Rules in our house, no cute chart like this though... Where did you get it?
Funny, when Karson knows he's being a stinker, he will just go get the " Sauce" aka hot sauce..
Love your pictures..
Also, you are a SUPER mom.. Love the dresses, way cute. I am hoping one day for a girl, and I hope to be half the mom you are, you truly are amazing.
