I decided to make a cheerio necklace with Jack as one of our projects. Lately I have been adding some new activities to our day. Jack and I washed dishes one day. We got out a soapy washing bucket, a plain water bucket and then we dried them. Jack loved the washing and rinsing but the drying and putting away was no fun and with each new dish he got really upset. He has helped me vacuum, sweep and walk the dog. He is not the best at listening to directions, but he is getting better. Well my great idea to make a cheerio necklace did not go so well. He was only interested in eating handfuls of Cheerios from the bowl while I showed him over and over how to make it. Once I was finished making it. He had a blast wearing it and eating from it. This kid is always hungry!!! While he was playing with it Charlie got a hold of it and Jack did not stand a chance. He cried as Charlie ripped it from his hands and took off to devour it. I could not get it away from Charlie for a while. While I was cracking up at Charlie and taking pictures since I thought it was so funny, Jack got a hold of the entire box and dumped them all on to the ground. I took the opportunity to teach Jack again how to sweep. He thought it was hilarious and was laughing hysterically as I chased him around to get the broom back. Lesson didn't go so well. I can't imagine having more kids right now, one hungry boy and a bad dog are enough.
