I started a sticker chart with Katelyn last week (she was out of control!) and I was skeptical about it working and thought she was too young to understand it...but it is working! She get s a sticker for: making a good choice (basically when she listens to me instead of throwing a tantrum), having quiet time (this got her to take naps again-hooray!), and going to bed happy (she was screaming and refusing to go to sleep and now she goes straight to bed!). I know I Am jinxing it right now, but this sticker chart has been magical! Every time she puts a sticker on the chart she counts how many more she needs to get ice cream! We will make the ice cream trip a big event and then I have to think of a new reward for our next chart! Call it bribery...but man it works!

Jamie! I love your blog. I just found it on Carries. Welcome to blogging world. I have been doing it for a year and am a little obsessive for it. I can't believe the day I saw you at Target that you had your baby that night! Congrats! You can see my blog by clicking on my name if you want!

Hey, we're starting our sticker chart next week for good choices! i am going to go buy a bunch of $1 prizes and put them in a "treasure chest" that she will get to open when she fills her chart.
glad to hear it's working so well! gives me hope for kylie!
I know things have been crazy for you lately but you are SUCH a good mom. Nicole and I are both very impressed with your cute chart and the ENERGY to think of it/make it!
Glad that it is working out! The chart system totally works with my boys as well.
