Andrew, The Electrician


Andrew has turned into quite the handyman around here. In order to install our new cabinets, we had to move 3 outlets. So, Andrew figured out how to do it.

Madeline pitched in to help as well.




I think it is a pretty good idea to teach your children to put screw drivers into outlets.


Andrew, with his first outlet done! Madeline, not sure how to give a thumbs up yet :)


Then, Andrew moved on to the other two outlets. Everything seems to be working properly. We haven't had any fires yet. So, hopefully we are good to go.

We have been assembling cabinets in our bedroom (which is no longer our bedroom. We have moved upstairs to our loft and our old room will become baby boy's room once it is no longer an assembly plant.) Here is one of the upper corner cabinets. We are planning on hanging the first wall tonight. We'll see how it goes.

Madeline is having fun playing in the cabinets. When I got out of the shower this morning, I found her with a whole box of screws...


...working very hard at getting them into all the little holes. I guess it is good fine motor practice.
