Mommie's little helper

Jasper's new thing this week is cooking (microwaving). He pulls his stool over and opens the door, places the food and "pushes" the buttons. If only you could see the look of joy on his face as he watches the food cook. He is so proud of the fact that he is helping and he can see the food going round and round! It takes so little to please them at this age. He had the honor of carrying the crescent rolls to the table the other night (put them in his place) and boy did he think he was something! I'm just hoping the "I help my mommy/daddy/grandad" continues on for years to come! I'll admit some days his help creates more work, but it is always worth it to see how much pleasure he gets.

By the way, Sydney got him an Elmo's kitchen (restaurant) for Christmas, he has had a lot of fun playing with it. One of those toys that you will not only get your money out of but then some!

working on it....

okay, as you can see the first post for today has nothing on it, sorry. I am trying this new site and things didn't go as planned. ANYWAY!

A New Year!

A New Year and a new attitude! That's what we are looking forward to in 2009. I am at this time mobile, I finally got a laptop! Of course Paul says I have to share when we go out of town. Think I can handle those terms. Maybe now I can work on updates at least once a week...:) It is so hard to believe that 2008 is over! I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and your families are all healthy and happy going into the new year. Should have pictures online next week.
So what "new" things are you and yours going to do this year? I am cleaning out closets, time to stop being a packrat! I don't have the room for things and don't need most of the items I hold on to. Going to set a budget and stick to it, pray for both of us on that one! And we are looking at changing churches, so there are a lot of big ones for us right of the bat. Let me know some of yours and I'll try and keep you updated on my success!
Love to all!
