first time out...

my boy is so funny. he is a mess. and pretty much at the age where we are starting to discipline him intently. the other day he was in the kitchen, getting into the cabinets where my baking dishes are and i told him countless times to shut the door and stop digging in the cabinets. finally in frustration and just kiddding around, knowing full well that he had never been given a timeout before, i said "grayson! shut the door and GO TO TIME OUT!" he looked at me, turned around, and ran to the playroom. i didn't think too much of it, and then i heard some grunting. i walked into the playroom to find him trying to climb into the timeout chair. it was all i could do to not fall over laughing at the poor little self disciplining 17 month old. i helped him in his chair and promptly got my camera. he sat there very nicely until the one minute timer went off. then hugged, kissed me, and went on his way, DIRECTLY BACK TO THE CABINETS. he opened them, looked at me, i said "do you want another timeout?" he smiled, and ran back to the timeout chair. so much for that....
