mason has taken up his first "chore" (other than generally cleaning up their toys) - taking out the trash. it started with him helping me bring in the empty trash cans and recycling containers but a few weeks ago he bundled up to help daddy carry boxes out to the curb on 'trash night'.there was a lot of trash the day after Christmas so madelyn and mason helped daddy get it ready for pick-up. only madelyn and mason wanted to work faster than daddy and just carried the cardboard out to the curb without breaking it down or stacking it.
it is very dark, but you can see mason's light up shoes and here him dragging the shovel on his return trip.
mason loves his 'chore' so much that when i asked him to take a box out to the garage last week, he came back to ask me to open the garage door. he thought i wanted him to take it out to the curb! so sweet of him to offer. love.

Mason's a great helper and love those shoes!
Super helpers! Too cute that you can see his shoes out int he dark. Yay for Matt breaking down boxes. I have a hard time convincing Jon that thats the way to put out recycles. He usually humors me though.
You've got to train them young! So cute! And yes, great shoes for the dark! Nana
