Target Shopping Trip



The shopping cart at Target did not have a seatbelt today. While I was talking to an employee Alex made himself comfortable. He tossed his boots in the back of the shopping cart and sprawled out in the front. When I turned back around he kept saying "Beeby beeby". A little later he took it a step further by getting rid of his socks too. I promise I wasn't in there that long.

Mr. Helper

Alex has become quite the worker bee since we moved to Boise. He has to be in the middle of any kind of housekeeping/cooking project that goes on in the Wissenbach house. It has gotten so out of control that whenever there is a hint of something getting started he screams, runs and pounces to get over to the action fast enough and to make it very clear that he will be the one running the show. Here are just a few of the tasks that he controls.

1. Mix any recipe up with spatula or hand mixer
2. Make smoothies with the Blendtec (includes putting all ingredients in blender and turning it on)
3. Feed Whitney her ibuprofen or vitamins one by one
4. Do the dishes
5. Sweep and vacuum up crumbs
6. Feed Jax
And much more.

I felt like his latest dishwasher loading was a great success. He did this with no assistance.
