wordless wednesday but with words

Who knew that replacing the vacuum cleaner belt could be so exciting? Note how Charlie is ready with his screwdriver and Chris is obviously working hard (just look at his face!) So for $2.99 I avoided getting a new vacuum...AND I got a photo opportunity. Score!


linking up with my friend Heidi:
Black and White Wednesday
Here's my confession:
I don't really "get" wordless wednesday. So let's call it what it is. Around here words are totally ok, and actually encouraged! So if you like words too and want to link up your wordless wednesday, but with words, please do. And if it's Thursday by the time you get around to it, well heck, that's ok too.
and then, she {snapped}

link up your wordless wednesday but with words post below and with some of my favorite hostesses: project alicia, the paper mama, naptime momtog

LOVE watching parker "help" sam with stuff around the house. he's a big help with taking out the recycling.

and ps: i dont actually "sift" my dry ingredients in those cookies... more like, stir up with a fork. does that count?

Gotta love being able to fix stuff yourself! Or having someone nearby who can fix stuff for you! We recently had to fix our clunker of a vacuum but honestly I was hoping we would have to get rid of it to get a new one.

Also, my child would have been crying and hiding in a corner somewhere just at the sound of the word "vacuum".

What a big little man! Haha... love how dad is all working hard, & Charlie is like "I got this!"

Jax is always trying to (break)fix things with his tool set.

Kids crack me up. My son is def. at the phase where trying to do whatever mom or dad is doing is the coolest.

I have a traditional WW post that I could link, but I kinda agree about the word thing. So, I linked my most-recent "wordy" post from last night. Thanks for hosting, and I look forward to next week!

That is one precious moment you captured. Love it!

Boys love discovering how things work. I'm learning every day how different my little man is from his two older sisters.

Nothing better than teaching your children housework and cooperation. On another note, we actually payed to have it repaired...lol...husband not the handyman kind of guy :)
