I enjoyed reading this! However, you only have one helper! I have two wonderful little boy helpers and one helper on the way! Mothering little boys is a whole new experience we should all enjoy, one day they will be totally embarrassed that they threw a fit to get in the potty room with us!

Irresistible! Or maybe just un-stoppable!

I wish you could see the big grin on my face right now. Although my Little Guy has started wanted to help wash the dishes, the thing that popped in my head is actually the opposite of your post. It is a picture of my six-year-old standing with his hands on the wall and his bare butt sticking out calling for me to come wipe his bottom after pooping! We are still working on that one.

BTW, thanks for your support of my new bloggy adventure. I am pretty excited about it!

The help monster has invaded my house as well. (to the point where I have a bog entry in draft from as we speak- not nearly as good as yours though)

My 4 year old through tantrums last night when I wouldn’t let him “help” drain the boiling pot of pasta. It was oh so lovely!

Laundry- we do ok, cooking. Oh boy.

I am laughing hysterically, it’s so good to know I’m not alone! My little man does the same thing, every time he catches me going into the bathroom, he has to hand me some t.p. and he freaks out if I don’t let him flush. Sadly, I’ve inadvertently triggered some pretty long & loud meltdowns when I flushed on my own. Not on purpose but after over 30 yrs of taking care of that without help, it kind of gets to be a habit!
