The Help

IMG_8663 

In the interest of keeping this blog honest, yet still positive, I should say one of the primary delays in blogging has been due to Ben…BUSY BEN.  However, when looking through the ever accumulating back log of photos I have begging to be blogged I realized that maybe all I need is a better outlook?

Our dear friend Jeff teasingly calls Ben WB.  This is short for the WRECKING BALL.  This nickname has sort of stuck and I often hear Mike chuckling and calling Ben this (ok not always chuckling).   But perhaps we need stop and reflect on all the hard work he does around the house…IMG_8661

Him and Lola are quite the copy making team.  He knows exactly what button to push to make a copy and Lola joins him in  “gently” removing your paper hot off the press.

He helps pour cereal.

And of course eliminates any “extra papers”.

He even does the lawn.

And when “doing the lawn” he goes the extra mile by finding any holes that need to be filled, that may um, cause a puddle.

He helps with dinner.

He even feeds the dog.

And this is my favorite part…he tests her food to make sure it’s just right.  Yes, this is also the part that you hear me screaming NOOOOOOOOOOO!
