Georgia's First Time Out

This morning I was getting Nate ready for school, and Georgia walked over and popped him on the head for no reason at all.

Georgia! No, no! Go sit in time out.

I made her sit down a few feet away from me against the wall. I expected her to immediately stand up and start running, but this girl has seen many a time out and knew the drill. After about 30 seconds she hesitantly started to get up, and I told her to sit on her bottom and she sat back down.

A one year old gets a one minute time out, so when a minute was up, I told her to go over and tell Nate she was sorry. She walked over to him and just stood there very close to him for a long time.

Then she said, "Sowwy."

Nate said, "Awww, Georgia, I love you!" He was so proud of her first time out. She learned from the best.

That is so cute! I can just picture her sitting there, thinking about getting up and being told to sit back down...then saying sowwy!

Same in my house for the longest time.... Audrey would do great time outs because she had seen Nat do so many....

Good girl Gerogia!

Love it! Madelynn had her first time out last week....unfortunately she thought it was funny so I'm not so sure I got my point across!
