TimeOut, 2 MINUTES!

Whenever he's not listening to me, he gets a timeout for 2 minutes. 1 minute per year of his age. I think he knows the routine now... He get a warning, next offense he gets a timeout for 2 minutes. I sit him down and tell him why he is on timeout. Then I remind him why he is on timeout, he says "sorry mommy", gives me hugs and kisses and we get on with our day.

So I hear from the other room.. "time out! 2 minutes!" as I rounded the corner I see this:
Poor baby Jemima sitting in Xander's timeout seat. I HAD to run and get the camera. When I came back I took a quick picture and hid around the corner to see what else was going on...


Xander had come back told Baby Jemima why she was on timeout and gave her hugs and kisses and they went off to play with trucks in the room.
It is amazing what he remembers from what we tell him.


Ironically as I write this.. he earned himself a timeout.
