Big Helper

I realize this photo is a little risque but it is the only photo that I had to document that Big A changed Lil A's diaper while I made bagels. He wanted to change a poopy diaper later that day but I had him unload the dryer instead. Just for documentation purposes, both boys are interested in helping with the laundry. I start the washer , put the soap in and they load the dirty clothes in. But I think their favorite part of laundry is putting the wet clothes into the dryer. What am I going to do when they are not interested in helping?
Here is another day when Big A changed another diaper. He really likes doing it. He wants to help with the poopy diapers but I think we will have to wait until he is 5. I commented to my mom that he is what I imagine Beebe being like- she changed my CLOTH diapers when she was 5 years old.

I am really hoping that some of Big A's helpfullness will rub off on Noah. Really I need a diaper changer!!!

That is so cute! You are teaching them well! They just seem like they are the best of friends. I bet it is so special having two little buddies who care so much about each other.

I think that you need to thank the lucky stars that he wants to be that helpful, especially the diapers.

He is a kid that takes after my own heart! I wonder if Jill hadn't programmed him, if I would really be his favorite aunt. We speak the same language.

Again, I am so sorry about sticking you with a diaper pin.

Man, lil A is getting so tall! He looks the same height as Big A in that first picture. Great that you have such a big helper, esp when the little one is coming. Have you picked a name by the way? I can't remember if you have said so or not.

Hey, all the important biznis was covered in those photos. I like in #2 how freaked out Lil A looks. I've asked H to change his own, but so far no interest other than crawling away nekkid.

Lil A looks like he is just as tall as big A. Is that right? or is it the angle of the picture.

You have great helpers.

It's amazing to me that Lil A will stay still for his brother! Lucky you! Poopy might be pretty scary. It's interesting what kids think they can do. Hey, I wish I could go to Disneyland with you and Maalan. I'd even tend all your kids so you two could go have fun!

Ya, I wish we could come to Disneyland! ;) Your boys are amazing and sooooo cute! Micah is in the phase of being a laundry helper, too. Cute pics!

Get it while you can!! My kids are at the little helper stage too. I am enjoying the help. It is easier to get somethings done if they are helping me instead of pestering each other. Good JOB boys!

Beebers, "programmed" is a little harsh don'tcha think? They love me the most because I live close and take them to Disneyland when their mom is on "bedrest" ....but a little root beer goes a long way :)

All I can say is WOW! Jacob runs and gets me a diaper and wipes, but hasn't attempted the actual "changing" yet. These pics crack me up!!!
