Alexander really, really likes to help. I mean, like really. When Papa's cousin was in town, the 36 inch kid "helped" carry Alessia's 35 inch suitcase up the stairs.

Every afternoon when Maia beebops in the back door, the kiddo is right there grabbing at her backpack, so he doesn't miss his opportunity to help her carry it to her bedroom.

"Mama help. Mama help." Oh, it is so cute when out handsome little guy begs to help. It may not be helpful, but it sure is nice to have the little guy's help!


Tonight Papa got home a wee bit early to beat the storm, and immediately started cooking. And you guessed it, he had a helper!


Unless someone else (who is pre-approved by the boy) is present, most tasks in the kitchen include the kiddo sitting on the counter assisting. He fell off, but just once. He L.O.V.E.S to "help," scream & point out the tasks that he deems most important. He's also pretty fond of taste testing our culinary creations. (Of course, he will refuse the same treats when served at the table...)

And sometimes, he even drums up a little dinnertime music...

So, if you need any help, you know who to call...
