Mommys Little Helper

Elena is very much a big girl these days. She is trying to do everything anti-baby. She is the big girl, Natalie is the baby! So she has been proving this to mommy by being a good helper. This week it has been washing the dishes. She jumped up by the sink one night and dove right in!! So every night after dinner she asks, is it time to wash dishes yet?




(Don't worry those of you that eat at our house - mommy rewashes before they are put away :) )






Last week I showed her how to fold towels, so whenever there is a load of towels or blankets - It's hers to fold! - She is very proud of her work when she sees the big pile that she has completed.


With all this helping, you would think she would love the easy jobs like picking up her toys or her bedroom.. But those for some reason don't seem to be as fun. Mommy prefers to pick up toys to doing dishes and laundry, maybe this is a perfect compromise???
