A SCHEDULE WHATS THAT!! POINTS TOO???

Okay folks here you have it!!! My girls are on a schedule. It's not like they haven't been in the past, we just suck at keeping with it after a certain time frame. So, we put them back on a schedule. It seems to be working out great too. The girls know what is expected of them and they are doing a better job of less whining and complaining. lol

Also I found this awesome website:
http://www.handipoints.com/index.php You sign up for free. It lets you make a chore chart, healthy chart, personal/church chart and it puts it all on one big task chart. Every time the kids do one thing on there you mark it off and they get an point to save up for something and bonus points. You can print it off or just leave it on line and the children can mark every time they did their "responsibilities." It seems to be helping Savannah with things she doesn't like to do. You just remind them that you will take away a point or give no points and that upsets them. Hailey is the same way , she gets all irritated when she finds out she can't have a point. lol They can save points for rewards on the site. You can collect stamps on the site and play games. Talk to other children on the site and you get to make up a pet. You can buy clothes and other things for your pet with the bonus points you earn from doing your chores. The pet has a house and we haven't done anything with it yet though. So far so good and it's working great!!!

With this new schedule and with the new point system the girls are getting a bit better in their attitudes and other areas they need to work on.
