Anyway, for Day 12, here’s what she got for us…

Look mommy what I did with my color crayons!!! I made a star!

Do-do-do-do Dora! Do-do-do Dora! Do-do-do Dora! Do-do-do Dora!
Dora Dora Dora the Explorer

Movie marathon with mommy. 3rd movie: Garfield Gets Real.  I don’t know who Garfield is and this movie is surely boring. *yawn*

Mommy teaching me how to use a chopstick

Checking out Hong Kong Disneyland’s 2010 promos.  The husband wants to go this coming March but I prefer going on December, much cooler to roam around the park. 

I don’t know who’s more excited, the daddy or the little princess  

Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are…

These are the glow in the dark stars from our room ceiling.

So here’s to year 2010!  May it be fruitful for everyone

The reward and punishment:

There’s really no punishment, only a reward.  If she gets at least 6 smiley faces within that week, she gets the chance to go to SM or ATC (malls) on Sunday (if she wants to).  If not, then we just stay at home. 

It may seem to be an expensive reward but it’s not.  She likes to go to SM to check the puppies/pets at bioresearch.  She also likes to ride the train which only cost about PHP40 per head, so that’s PHP80 for the two of us and we don’t ride every time we go there.  Then I treat her anything she wants to eat.  There are times we end up not eating there at all since she wants rice for mirienda

At ATC, she always always rides the merry-go-round which only costs PHP25 (free for accompanying adult).  We seldom go there, only when daddy (the financier) is going with us (and treat us for lunch/mirienda/dinner).

Oh, and if she gets a happy face for the day, she can play the Nintendo DS before going to sleep.  Curfew is still 9PM on schooldays   TV is only allowed starting Friday afternoon until Sunday morning.

As of current, the little princess has manage to earn at least 6 smiley faces since we had this.  She feels sad when there’s a sad face and she tries to make up for it by being good the rest of the day.  But there was even a time that she was naughty the whole day.  Sinagad nya talaga! LOL!

And this morning, she was being her makulit self again.  I asked yaya to remove all the smiley faces for the week.  Then awhile ago over lunch, she didn’t want to eat, she just wanted to watch TV.  I showed her the chart and told her she already has 7 sad faces.  She told me no while crying…  I told her I will change the sad faces to smiley faces if she stops crying and eats her lunch properly.  It was surely effective.  She stopped crying, behaved herself and ate lunch without a fuss.
