Doing Chores

It's so nice now the kids are getting older and can help out more around the house. I am still trying to get an official chore chart together for Andrew and Ally but for now, they have their jobs and know what they are supposed to do and are usually pretty good at doing them without too much prompting. Ally wasn't too thrilled about unloading the dishwasher this morning and kept complaining that she was tired and it was taking too long. She finally found a way to make it more fun



build a tower out of cups. It entertained her long enough to forget that she was sick of unloading the dishwasher and soon had the chore all done.

Vanessa has even joined in on the work even though she doesn't have any official jobs yet. She is pretty good at putting her toys back in the basket although for every one she puts in she pulls five or six out. She also likes helping with laundry. She pulls the clothes out and keeps shaking it. It's really cute. She also likes to crawl in the baskets and hang out for a while.
