Big Helper

Lately if Teya sees me or Taber doing something she comes running to help. She loves to help me cook, clean, and carry groceries. She loves to help Taber spray weeds, pick up trash, work on the lawn, and most recently, work on the car. Yesterday I got a flat tire and when Taber got home she quickly told him, "I help Daddy pump the air tire!" So Taber got out the car jack and the two of them got to work changing the tire. Teya was fascinated by the whole process and was especially proud to be able to hold onto the bolts and pass them to Daddy when they were needed. She was also thrilled to see that her hands were filthy just like Daddy's by the time they were through. I'm definitely loving this stage where she is so excited about doing big girl things and becoming such a big helper. Hopefully she'll keep it up when baby gets here!

I love it when they get to the "helping" stage. Lizzy does the same thing, and it's so fun.
