Chase's First Time Out

Anna started screaming Sunday morning because her baby brother bit her. Sean came in and put Chase in his first time out. It only lasted for 20 seconds because Sean couldn't stand to see him crying in the corner.

Time out in the corner.

Giving Anna a love to say he was sorry.

We had all the Tanners over and even Poppy from Colorado made it.

James Collection

James has been doing a wonderful job keeping his room clean. This is how he does it. He has many of his toys in a "collection"; and no one, especially little brothers, are allowed to touch it.
