More Chores

JT has adopted a few more household tasks lately. He enjoyed scrubbing the toilets; mostly I think this is because he loves playing in water.

Loading the dishwasher was going well (he did everything you see here), and he was even rinsing the dishes off for me.

But then we hit a snag. He put a sippy cup in the middle of the drain for the garbage disposal, and it fit exactly. And plugged the sink. And we couldn’t get the cup out.

Fortunately I was able to pry it out with a dinner fork and we continued on our way. Oh, the things that you just don’t see coming. 🙂
And finally, this is just a sweet picture… but let me tell you why. Note the blankets in the picture: JT doesn’t loan his afghan blanket from Grandma Hall (that he sleeps with) to anyone. If we’re snuggling with him, he will politely get us another blanket and take his afghan right back. So it was unprecedented when he gently covered sleeping Haley with his blanket and then told me “I go get other blanket” for himself. True sacrifice!
