With Mr HB away for three weeks, I've been encouraging the kids to really pitch in and help around the house. Of course, in our household there is a fine line between help and hindrance.
Take 3-year old Bargy, for example: here is his version of making the bed. Ah, see how he is trying? And I do mean "trying" in the sense slowly-sending-me-bonkers-by-putting-the-mattress-on-top-of-the-bedding.
(I am much too afraid to ask for help with dinner).
Good boy Bargy!!
ReplyDeleteMummy's little helper!!
;-)
How did he even manage to lift the mattress?!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Mummy's best little helper eh?
ReplyDeletexo
ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
ReplyDeletei haven't laughed so hard in a while, thanks for that!
xox
So typical of Bargy!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'd be thinking twice before asking for help with anything.
ReplyDeleteThat's hilarious. We generally have the doona and pillow on the floor in the lounge room at the moment. Thank goodness it's a big room. Chloe has spent at least an hour spraying the wooden floor with water and wiping it today. Kinda good except Arj, who's crawling, keeps slipping over and clonking his head. AAARGH!
ReplyDeleteI have to say I am in awe of his strength!
ReplyDeleteHe was being very helpful I can see!
Classic! That boy will go far!
ReplyDeleteOh that boy's a Riot!
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty impressed by his super strength. Just lifting the mattress is no mean feat. If only you could harness his powers to your benefit !!!
ReplyDelete'Helping' is such a double edged sword - if you don't laugh you will definitely cry or in my case completely lose the plot!! But they mean well....
ReplyDeleteI think he's inherited your sense of humour!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWow! I'm not asking "why?" as much as "how??"
ReplyDeleteOh, I have one of these tiny housekeepers. i find the other helpful behaviour is the storing away of essential household items in strange and unexpected p[laces.i lost all the teaspoons this week and came across hem, finally, packed inside a plastic bag and tucked into a pocket of a schoolbag.
ReplyDeleteI totally get it-this kind of stuff happens here, too!!
ReplyDeleteLaughing on this side of the screen because it's somewhat enjoyable when it's at your house today and not mine-HA!
I can relate to all of that!
