Future King of Timeout

Lucas is going to set the record for timeouts when he's a little older. We are just starting to have to tell him "no", mostly when he crawls towards dangerous things like wires. His favorite spot is underneath the computer desk in our office. Yesterday we were all in there playing and he crawled under there over and over again. Jeff kept telling him "no" and would hold his arms by his side for 5 seconds (Dr. recommendation) so that he would see it as an unpleasant outcome and not do it again. haha, it doesn't work with Lucas. Sometimes he would even grin at us. Little stinker!

Lily sometimes giggles at us when we hold her arms down too. But overall I think it's working - she mostly leaves her night light and the power button on the TV alone now. Cords we are still working on...
