Making donuts



Last week we decided to make donuts with the children. It ended up being an all day thing and we had to cook most of them after the children were asleep, but they did get to taste the first batch before we put them down. They really enjoyed getting their hands on the dough and helping to shape it.

Hyrum even got in on the fun and played with the flour on the floor.

Helping with dishes



The children love to help with the dishes- any house work for that matter. It always takes longer when they help- and a lot more work on my part, but they learn lots and it's a great way to spend time with them and get something done at the same time.

Hyrum climbed right into the dish washer on his own one night while I was doing the dishes. He was so proud of himself.
