Teaching children good manners is a never-ending task. And with eyes watching, we as parents have to be good mannered also! Please and thank you, excuse me, elbows off the table, don't interrupt, etc.
Jack & Ellie now share a room with bunk beds. Jack on top, Ellie down below. This change came when Amelia was ready to go to the crib and her own room a couple months ago. The "big kids," as I like to call them, are doing very well with this adjustment. Much better than we thought! They go to bed at the same time and normally with very little talking, off to dreamland.
The other night, after putting them to bed, we could hear Jack in the room shouting, "No!" A few seconds later Ellie comes out to announce, "Mom, Bubba tooted and he won't say 'Excuse me.'" We politely told her that it was okay and to go back to bed. Luckily, she listened and headed right back because we busted up laughing!
