Helpful Lyla

Monday is my day for grocery shopping, laundry and deep cleaning my kitchen.

Lyla likes to help....

Lyla is really good at the grocery store. She smiles at everyone and talks and sings the whole time. When we get home I let her run around in front of our apartment while I carry bags up and down the stairs. This morning she decided to just sit, watch and eat her Cheetos.

Lyla also likes to help me carry in the bags, but she always wants to carry the milk. I try to give here something light like paper towels, but she just keeps trying to carry the milk.

After we get the kitchen clean we always sweep last. Lyla loves the broom and sings while she sweeps. She even trys to use the dust pan.

We also do laundry on Mondays. I don't really mind doing laundry because I have such a good helper. I have to be careful and recheck my whites before I wash them because she likes to mix up my piles. She doesn't 'help' much with the folding...so I usually wait until she is asleep or really distracted by something else.

Lyla likes to help me make the bed. Her Daddy likes to have pillow fights and tickle wars with her so that's what she wants to do while I try to make the bed.

I am so blessed to have my little helper.
