Mama in New England

This is us, as I navigate motherhood and enjoy the amazing adventure.

We are a family of four, a cat and a dog, living outside Boston, Massachusetts. I started this blog as a way to update friends and family who are afar, but it seems to have become somewhat therapeutic & helps me laugh when I need to.

Time Out Fail

Lanie gets put in time out for one minute each time she pulls Vivian's hair (when it's unprovoked).  However it doesn't seem to be working very well, we need a back up plan.  Now she will sometimes pull Vivian's hair, when Chris or I appear, she kind of tilts her head and smiles, then will occasionally put herself in time out. 
The other day after multiple offenses, Chris picked her up and put her in time out, with the standard statement, "do not pull Vivian's hair."
When I walked by to go upstairs I noticed that she was contentedly pouring herself capfuls of sprinkles from a jar that she had somehow secured and was eating them.
