...and they helped!

One rainy day Cole was really cranky, and I was trying to get a load of freshly laundered clothes folded. So I piled him atop the hamper full of warm clothes and pulled him in the hamper through the house. He loved it. Like a magic carpet ride! And I was so pleased with myself for having figured out a new way to curb the cranky spells.

Fast forward three weeks when I cannot put anything into the hamper without having two "helpers" descend on me. How do they help? By taking the clothes out of the hamper! Fun! How else do they help? By ripping neatly folded clothes off the dining room table and bench. Super! I so quickly forget how high they can reach, and nearly always put the clothes too low. I'm learning. Just not quick enough. Here are my helpers. And yes, I know it looks like Grady could fall backwards and hit his head, but that head is huge and is really more likely to dent the hardwoods, so stop worrying.



If pictures aren't enough, here is a little video clip of the "helping". Just dawned on me that I should probably not laugh when they do something that I don't want them to do, but dammit, they're so funny.
