Garbage Man

One of Jonah’s favorite helpful chores is bringing the garbage cans in and out. It cracks me up to see him hauling these huge cans around the driveway.

We have the nicest garbage men, too. Last week, they held Jonah up so he could work the levers on the side of the truck that dump the cans out and compress the trash. Very exciting!

Here are a few other photos from around the house. Nora saw Jonah lying down on the carpet and drawing, so she got her own magna doodle and settled in next to him.

And here they are playing “I’m gonna get you…!” after lunch today.

Nora loves wearing Jonah’s backpack and walking around the house (and looking in the mirror) like she’s going to school. She takes it off the hook and brings it to me to help put it on, and she’s even started saying ‘backpack.’ I think I’ll have to make her one of her own pretty soon. :)

And I also made her this cute top this week. Apparently these things are called pinafores. She’s pretty happy with it. :)
