March 25, 2009 My Little Cleaning Lady

 

Sophia and Brandy are cleaning the kitchen for me. For the last two days, Sophia has taken an interest in helping me clean house. Yesterday, she grabbed her Elmo vacuum and went zipping around the house with it. She went into my bedroom where I keep my vacuum cleaner and started saying "Ma Ma!  Ma Ma!" I finally went in there to see what all the fuss was about and she was pointing to my vacuum cleaner and showing me her vacuum cleaner. I had told her we needed to clean but I really didn't think she understood what we were going to do.  This morning I was making breakfast and Sophia grabbed the little broom I use to sweep up the dog food and crumbs around the kitchen and started sweeping while I was making her food.  Her hair is all messy and she is still in her pjs in these photos but it was too cute to pass up.  

 

I can't believe she is actually using them correctly.  Obviously, she has been watching me more than I realized. 

 

Here she looked up at me but moved the broom right in front of her face when I snapped the photo.

 

Here she is showing Brandy what she is doing.  I also noticed some weird shadows in these photos but I think that is because it is early in the morning and the sun was just peeking in and creating some weird lighting effects almost like an undirected spotlight.
