Head Bean

I'm not sure if it's the teacher in me or if I stole the idea from somebody else or maybe it's a combination of the two but we've instituted "Head Bean" in our home.
Head Bean is a special title that goes to one boy each week.  The HB get special privileges for the week.  Right now the privileges are pretty silly, but as the boys grow, they will become more exciting. 

When one of the babies is HB, he gets to:
  • be 1st in the tub (before the water gets peed in)
  • ride up "front" next to Eli (in the other captain's chair)
  • be the 1st in/out of high chair
  • be the 1st to get diaper changed
  • be the 1st in/out of bed
  • go on special trips with mama/dada
When Eli is HB, he gets to:
  • choose who gets to sit next to him
  • go on special trips with mama/dada
  • choose which baby goes on special trips
  • get a special treat after food shopping (which is a special trip)
In the future, I imagine the HB will get to:
  • brush teeth first
  • wash hands first
  • go pee first (yes, we only have 1 bathroom)
  • choose bedtime story
  • go on special trips alone with mom/dad
  • choose 1 dinner for the week
  • get in the car first
  • choose spot in the car
  • anything else we can imagine
