Helping Grandma

We had a Thanksgiving dinner (a bit early) on Sunday after watching this all weekend. James is going to miss having Thanksgiving with his family this year, so we were all happy to have it early. :)

Brenda is so good to let the kids help with whatever she is making. She made stuffing and jello the night before at my house. Cohen even helped stir and definitely loved feeling like a big boy helping like his older brother and sister.

Scarlett is quite the helper... especially wiping the counters. I need to utilize this more often! ;)

This was Kelan and I while all the cooking was taking place.

I wish I had enough patience everyday to let the kids help in the kitchen... but I know that's not totally realistic. But, this has inspired me to let them help more than I have in the past. :)

Allison- it's a sleepy... based off your recommendation! It's worked great and is really comfortable to wear for a long period!
