trying new ways to get Evan to behave!

I started Ellie and Evan a chart yesterday...They get a big sticker if they are good at the gym (Evan has not been good, imagine that!), and they get stars if they do stuff like make their beds and brush their teeth, etc. We have kind of been at our wits end with Evan so hopefully this visual approach might help! They got stars for everything yesterday plus helped us wash the walls! Even Everett wanted a rag to help! So cute! I have pictures but for some reason can't get them downloaded...

On to our great news...Edwin got 2 callbacks for interviews today!!! And one of them is for the job we really want! So they are calling at 1pm tomorrow so everyone please be praying! We were just so exited to get some callbacks at this point! We won't know anything anytime soon and I am sure it is a longer process but just be praying that Edwin is relaxed and can be himself tomorrow...he is incredible at his job so hopefully they will be able to see that when they talk to him....also I failed to mention that he has all the kids all day tomorrow because I have my spinning certification from 8-6!!! He is just going to take them to the gym nursery about 12:30 and wait for the call...weird how that one worked out right? Hope the kids are good for him tomorrow! We'll let you know how it goes!!
