My Little Helper Boy!

Lincoln loves to be involved with anything we are doing. It doesn't matter if it's laundry, cooking, vacuuming, dusting, cleaning-up, fixing things, or pulling weeds outside, Lincoln wants to help! Lately he's been so excited to do the "deesis" and feed Grant his cereal. When he was feeding Grant, he took the spoon and started making "num num" sounds. I didn't realize it until I heard Lincoln do that, but he was just copying how he's seen me feed Grant. Also, this morning I couldn't make it into Grant's room right when he woke up. Lincoln heard him start to cry. He went in and I heard him start humming songs to Grant. When I made it into the room, Lincoln had climbed into Grant's crib, given him his pacifier, and was laying by him humming with his hand on Grants tummy. So cute! He is such a good helper to Mommy and Daddy and a good big brother to Grant. Hopefully this helpfulness will last and that he'll always be our helper boy! :)

I really think it's just his way of getting to play with bubbles!

Grant's so lucky to have such a good big brother to take care of him!

Lincoln is SO sweet!! I hope Nathan will be such a good helper too! Who needs a dishwasher when you have a two year old?? Nathan loves to play in the sink with the dishes and soap too! And help make chocolate chip cookies. Oh, and sweep and mop the floors. I just need to get him his own little cleaning supplies- just his size. Teach them young right?

So nice that Lincoln wants to help and is so gentle to his baby brother! Hopefully, he'll always be the protector...
