Washing Dishes

This morning while I was washing dishes and cleaning up the kitchen Stefan wanted to help. He was quite the diligent helper, very intent on making sure the dishes he had were thoroughly cleaned. We had a delightful time chatting together about, well, the normal things one chats with with a 20 month old. I wonder if he'll like washing dishes with his mom this much when he is 15? Probably not. I'm enjoying these days.

(p.s. you know you take a lot of pictures of your child when as soon as he sees the camera he looks up at you with these smiles!)



This was all that was left of the soapy water. All that was left in the bowl that is. I knew you'd ask...the rest of it was on the kitchen floor. Uh huh, I think my kitchen floor has never been cleaned with so much soap and water. And yes, Stefan did require an outfit change.



Was it worth it? You tell me. This was the face he gave me when I said, "show Mommy how much fun you had."


Pretty sure I didn't give the extra work of changing his soaking clothes and mopping up the extra water a second thought.These moments are fleeting by.

What we're up to


Playing with rice...I mean, how much fun is that? Truly, this entertains him for a long time. Great tool right now!


And packing boxes...uh, or climbing and sitting on them. Hopefully I'll write a detailed post on our upcoming move, but for now I need to get busy packing boxes. We have three weeks to get our things packed and loaded into the truck to be moved 1000 miles away. Ah yes, much to do, but no fears we're making it fun. I'm working at being as excited about the packing as I am about the move. Can't have one without the other, I guess.

A Walk Along the Cape Canal


On Thursday we enjoyed a nice walk along the Cape Canal with Papi and Meme. Stefan had fun especially with watching the boats, including a huge barge, sail by. It was a beautiful afternoon to stroll with the family.
