The Neverending List


When my Mom and Jim visit, they always insist on a list of things to do. This list doesn't include a trip to the Botanical Gardens or a nice night out on the town. It is a list of stuff we need done around the house. This last visit the list was ever growing and most of it was for Jim. Thanks for your great job helping out (as always)! I can't even begin to list all of the tasks he did around the house, but here are some:

Playing with Elias
Cooking with Elias
Cooking dinner almost every night (with some great corn bread recipes to boot)
Fixing the front door lock
Fixing the train track toys
Fixing the Lion toy (which Elias has found a new love for...let's hope it lasts)
Hanging drywall with Matt

Probably the best task was thanks to my friend Joe. Matt and I were trying to come up with a place for Ezra to sleep once we go up to the condo. We only have two bedrooms downstairs and until Ezra gets a bit older, he and Elias sharing a room doesn't seem like it would work out well. Joe thought of the big red whirlpool bathtub we have in the master bathroom. We never use it, so he thought we could convert it to a baby "bedroom".

We mentioned the idea to Jim and he ran with it. The picture above shows the final result better than I can describe it. I can't wait until we head up to Fraser to try it out.

My list already has a few more entries added. When are you guys coming back?
