Guys, I am loving this stage. The two big boys don’t have to be carted around, they can DO stuff now! On today’s grocery adventure, they carried the basket (I only needed a few items). To avoid fighting over who got to carry, they each carried part & had to communicate about the most efficient way to do so. They ultimately decided on the “no handles” method. Then I sent them on a scavenger hunt to get all of the vegetables. We made a pit stop at the fascinating seafood section just to look. Then, after they unloaded stuff onto the conveyor belt, they got in an all-out brother brawl that continued into the car. Can’t win ‘em all. But I *may* be slowly working myself out of a job and I’m not unhappy about that.
