Nail Biter

Anna Claire has started biting her nails in the past month.

It has been a real battle to get her to quit, but I wanted to nip it in the bud right away before it became a habit that was too hard to break.

At first I tried nagging her, but all that did was make it worse. In fact, she got to where she'd shake her fist at me if I said anything about it.

Then I read blogs and articles and they suggested I paint her nails, then she wouldn't want to mess them up. Well, that seems to be working! Hurray!

We'll see if it ends up being a long term solution, but for now, with it being cold season, I'm so glad she seems to be keeping her hands out of her mouth!
