My Little Helper

Today was a beautiful day, so KK and I spent it outside getting the yard ready for winter. It's been so warm that many of our flowers were still blooming. I felt bad cutting them down, but I'm sure a blizzard is just around the corner, and since I am not one for doing yardwork - particularly in extreme temperatures - I just got it over with and cut most everything down anyway. Of course I also wanted to take advantage of my energetic little helper... She actually was very helpful - putting leaves into the bags and encouraging me when I tried to pull some stubborn plants out of big pots: "Pull, Mama! Pull!" (They didn't move...) "Mama! Pull!!!!" (Nothing...) "Mommy? Do you need help?" I literally fell to my knees laughing.


KK also discovered a way to make her "potty stickers" last a bit longer...(note the somewhat large collection; we're making progress!) Who needs expensive toys when you have rocks and stickers?
