Losin' My Marbles

Liars!  All the people that said the two's were terrible.  The two's have nothin' on the three's!!  Let's just say it's a good thing Reese and Tucker are so stinkin' cute.  I'm counting down the days for them to turn 4 in the hopes that they will be magically fixed; instantly compliant.  A girl can dream, right?! 

We've had some rough days in the Tims' house within this last year... tears, fits, timeouts, spankings, sticker charts, iPad charts... you name it, we've tried it.  Our latest incentive system is one I stole from Andrea.  Marble Jars... love these!  The kids get to put a marble in their jars when they do something good, but have to take one out when they do something bad.  When they fill their jar, they get to go pick out a prize at the store. 

Love these cute little jars...

Tucker filled his jar first and got to pick out a prize last week.  This was very motivating for Reese!  Hers is now almost full!




The marble jars are keeping me from losing my marbles.  Well, that and reading Raising the Strong willed Child.  Reese is definitely our strong willed one.
