Laundry Helper!

My most favorite task EVER, other than emptying the dishwasher, is laundry!!!!! 

I hope you enjoyed that sarcasm!

I read a blog the other day about taking time to raise our kids. It focused on living in the now, letting kids stop and smell the roses instead of hurriedly shuffling from one activity to the other. Instead of cleaning the house, sit and watch your kids play, etc. I naturally do this (mostly because I thoroughly enjoy delaying house cleaning). My favorite part of the day is sitting down on the floor with my coffee in the morning and watching Madison play.  Putting her puzzle together and putting her blocks in a bucket just for her to empty them again! It's fun to watch her figure things out. 

I have recently discovered that a new favorite thing is doing laundry with Madsion!

In any other setting, I would be irritated that my nicely folded clothes are getting messed up, but I enjoy watching her figure out how to unfold them and playing peekaboo with daddy's shirts! Her other fun thing she likes to do is play with daddy's socks and wave them around!

We have even expanded the fun! A few days ago I got lazy and decided to just fold the clothes as I pull them out of the dryer as opposed to putting them in the basket and taking them to the living room to fold. Madison discovered how fun it was to pull all the clothes out of the dryer one article at a time! She is such a good helper already! 

Side note: apparently we only do laundry when she wears her Aqua flamingo shirt! These pictures were from two separate weeks! Lols!
