Need Maid Service?

Jonah ran downstairs a few days ago and stayed down there by himself for awhile. I had forgotten he was down there when he comes running up with a big grin on his face saying he cleaned up the whole basement by himself! What an amazing kid! He did such a good job Matt and I had to contain our laughter and praise him profusely after which I grabbed my camera!

By the time I got my camera Matt had already helped him put a few things away, so the sofa is not as crowded as what it was. After I got a good enough picture we explained to him that piling everything on top of the sofa was not as good of and idea as putting things away in the toy room. He said, "Oh." (he was still grinning, though). We had to give him a sticker on his chart for that! We are not sure what the chart is for, but if they clean up things they get a sticker. So far no one has asked what reward they are getting which is great for me because I have no idea yet! :)



Jared started crawling pretty much right after my last post. He's pretty cute doing it and he has managed to get around the house pretty fast when he wants to.





We have weeded our garden area!!! We had an enrichment class about gardening so I think I have a better idea about what I want to do. I'll have to take a picture of the garden later!
