Washing the dishes

Usually, Adelia helps me wash the dishes while Tucker is taking a nap. Sometimes Tucker and Adelia both help me. However, today when it was time to wash the dishes Adelia was running an errand with Daddy. Tucker was promoted to dish-rinser (He was pretty excited- this task has more access to water than his usual one.) He like to put his stamp of approval on each one. This involved licking or sucking on each dish. Needless to say, it took longer to wash the dishes than normal, but we had some fun Mommy-Tucker time:)

Who knew what 1 piece of chocolate could do?

Cute Story

The other day Adelia was helping me with spring cleaning and I asked her to hand something to me. She did and she said, "Here you go, Sweetie." I felt like I was the little girl. It caught me so off-guard and I had to be careful not to laugh.

I caught this spontaneous hug that was instigated by Tucker. So cute! Adelia loved it and kept telling Tucker it was "hug time" again

Food Co-op

So we just joined a food co-op and it is the BEST THING EVER! I love getting a variety of produce. I get stuck in a rut and usually buy only apples, bananas, tomatoes, etc. Nothing exciting. However this week we have had artichokes and plums, both of which we have never bought before. So fun.

Grandma's Little Helper

Here is Adelia with Grandma helping her put new fish in their pond. (It was so cold that I am not sure if the fish lived.) Adelia was so excited to do this! It was fun but I think she was a little disappointed that the fish were teeny-weeny. She also had her first experience with putting candles in a birthday cake- a very important task at any birthday celebration.

Tucker & Agnes

We spent Easter weekend at grandparents' houses and one of Tucker's favorite parts of the whole weekend was Agnes. Agnes is a gray kitten that was being kitty-sat while we were there. He absolutely loved chasing her. I am not sure how much Agnes liked it and she quickly learned to run under a bed when Tucker was going after her. This picture is of Tucker reaching under the bed for her. He did get faster and caught her a few times. When we tried to get him to look for eggs he just wanted to look for Agnes. He loved it!
