Okay, so I am not sure if my "timeout" strategy is working with Luka. Today he was lining up his Little People and saying "Little People Timeout." Then the poor elephant got it the worst. He kept saying,"Little People Elephant You TIMEOUT." I don't even put him in timeout that much. I think he thinks it is something fun. I think I must have missed the Super Nanny episode that spoke about this. He is two. Should I be putting him in timeouts? Am I scarring him for life? He might be taking his frustrations out on the poor Little People. Hmmmmmmm.

Don't worry, no scarring...Kids just do exactly what you do...EXACTLY. Which is why when I'm about to get really frustrated with Sam I say to myself "they do as you do not as you say"...
He's working out what it all means in his head so he practices with his toys. Sam, now 3.5 has FULL dialogues through his toys. "Hey elephant do you want to play?" "Sure, lizzard, I do, I'll help you" with different voices for them and everything. It's like he is practicing all the things we tell him to do "be nice" "be helpful" "use nice words" etc...
They are so darn cute at this age!!!
