Adam makes a beeline for the laundry in the hallway as soon as he hears those doors open. He's recently discovered how much fun it is to take things out for Mommy. (And now Mommy has to be ever-so-vigilant that he doesn't put something IN as well!)
Here are some pictures from our APPLESAUCE making day this past week. Mom and I remarked what a difference a year makes in terms of a certain young helper we had. This year, with Grandma giving most of the instruction (Mommy had her hands full with another young one for part of the morning), Natalia did very well and actually helped! (Notice the lack of quotations marks around that word.)
Washing the apples.
Pot full of pink yumminess.
The fancy shmancy operation. :o)
Stirring in the sugar.
(I put this on facebook but wanted to recall it here too.) Later that day Natalia was telling Pete how she hurt her hand alittle bit when she was helping Grandma stir the sugar into the hot applesauce. When he began to comiserate with her about it though, she quickly added, "But I didn't die."
Good to know, eh? LOL.

LOL at that comment from Natalia - kids sure have a way of putting things into perspective sometimes! I guess your apples finally arrived based on all of your applesauce-making pictures. :) Nothing beats homemade applesauce all year long - yum!
I don't know how I missed all of your posts! I've got to get busy making some of your soup recipes!! By the way, "Handle with Care" was not a great JP novel, if you haven't yet read it. sigh.
