Maggie is discovering new things every single moment of every single day and she celebrates each discovery by touching it with her hands, tasting it with her tongue and seeing if it moves.
The other day we were content to let her “discover” the dishwasher, mostly because we were thankful that Sydney’s food wasn’t getting destroyed. The pure glee that Maggie showed with the dishwasher was hilarious. I don’t share the same level of enthusiasm.
Personally, I don’t really love our dishwasher and don’t think about it much beyond loading it and emptying it when necessary.
Loading and unloading, along with every other mundane task, has taken on a new meaning with such an active baby in tow.
She certainly isn’t ready for her own list of chores, but I’m beginning to think that she’ll be a very helpful pipsqueak to have along for the ride of ‘keeping house.’
As long as what we’re doing is safe….because if we’re not safe, someone might get hurt. Mmm-kay?
PHEW. I am so glad Captain Safety was there!
Yeah, thankfully Capt. Safety lives with us.
