The Naughty Seat


Elena had to sit in the Naughty Seat today. Problem is - I think she liked it...just take a look at the photo (Please forgive me the ugly shirt from school).

The scenario: She hit Mommy and was escorted to the little bench where she remained very patient and sat (30 seconds) until Mommy came over and told her (again) not to hit. She was asked to apologize to which she promptly replied, "I sorry." She got down, gave me a hug and padded off to re-claim her abandoned baby. The end.

-------------------
Elena is such a good little sleeper (knock on wood). At bedtime, she tells us to 'shhh' and grabs for as many pacifiers as she can find in her crib (as she is only allowed them for 'night night.') She always has one pacifier (or 'fire,' as she says) in her mouth and one in her hand. When she wakes in the morning, she greets us with a VERY LOUD, "HI!" and waits to be picked up so she can return her pacifiers to their places in the crib until naptime. Although yesterday was the exception. I caught her under the dining room table, sneaking a couple of illicit sucks on her favorite red pacifier. When she knew she was caught, she ran to deposit it back in her crib. All the while, a smile was on her face. It took everything I had to resist laughter until I was out of eye/earshot.

What a sweet little stinker.
