My Little Helper

My crazy monkey has become such a good helper. She does new things everyday that just amaze me. Her latest have been helping me cook. She loves to help me every morning pick out her breakfast and get it all ready. She puts her pancakes on her plate, or takes waffles out of the freezer, and she loves loves loves to pick out what fruit she is going to eat. She is even a good helper at dinner as well. She has mastered her job of snapping off the bad ends of asparagus, putting tomatoes in the salad bowl, and spreading things out on a pan. I think we may have a little chef :)








But along with all these wonderful ways she helps me... comes all of the little things she can now get into. She loves to find my lip gloss and toothpaste and squeeze them. She loves to sneak into the refrigerator and sneak the cherry tomatoes. She loves to find the snacks in the diaper bag and eat them! Today I found her sitting in the kitchen eating a Nutri Grain bar that she took out of the diaper bag (which was in the laundry room) and opened all by herself and began to eat it (15mins before dinner). She was so proud of herself. She has also discovered where Mommy hides her treats, and today I found her taking the wrappers off of every See's Candy sucker and licking each one and then throwing them in the trash... lovely!!! And now that I am so busy packing to leave, I find lots off weird things in all the wrong places. Like salad tongs in my closet. And I wonder why I feel like my house is a constant mess... its like finding Easter Eggs that no one found throughout the year. You never know what is going to pop up!






I guess with the good there always comes the bad :)
