Bribery & Bargaining







I think part of being a mother is bribing your children. Just a little while ago I bribed my son to put his pants on by giving him a Dove chocolate heart. He loves chocolate and so..he took the bribe and put his pants back on. Another thing I have encountered with my son is bargaining. In the mornings I tell him that he has to get his socks and shoes on so we can leave to go play with his cousins. He will normally sit and let me put his socks and shoes on. Funny what we learn when we become parents. I wouldn't trade any of it though. We have so many fun times that it makes up for the hard stuff.



Valentines was a good holiday as far as holidays go. Chris and I went to dinner at Noodles and Co. and then went to the mall and walked around. Kind of relaxing without a child. Saturday night we went over to my parents and ate steak and crab. Yummy!!



Even though the weather hasn't exactly gotten warm we did some cleaning outside. We raked up lots of leaves from our tree out back. Our dog has probably successfully dug up most of our yard. That is the downside of a big dog. She is a digger. Hopefully that is a puppy thing that she will grow out of.



Till next time.
