Random October

Campbell has been into dressing up lately.

Blake decked out in Campbell's bracelet and sunglasses. The bracelet is usually the only thing Campbell can get him to wear when she's playing dress up. Go figure - he's not into tutus, purses or the crown.

Campbell was getting into a bad habit at dinner time of being very whiny and not eating unless I fed her.  Breakfast and lunch she ate like a champ, but for some reason she was losing it at dinner. So, I thought I'd try a reward chart where she gets a star when she uses her manners, doesn't whine, eats by herself, and enjoys her food. I didn't want to get into a battle over food and force her eat, but I did want to be able to enjoy a (somewhat) civilized family dinner. When she earns 3 stars she gets a small prize. I can't believe how well it's worked - she takes those stars very seriously.
