Dishwashers

Last Saturday we declared that the girls were to be on dish duty. They were thrilled and overjoyed to be able to get into the sink and wash all the dishes. They ASKED to have dish duty every Saturday night and we happily said "sure thing!" Well, we totally forgot yesterday, but Maya reminded us this afternoon that she and sissy were up for dish duty tonight!

Maya was on washing duty, Maggie loaded the dishwasher "so that it would be loaded properly". Her words, not mine.

Dad and I helped clear the table a little bit...Daddy was putting away an extra turkey burger and apparently he dropped it on the floor where our little furry garbage disposal was there lickety split and tried to inhale it in one bite.

Maya actually does a pretty good job "washing", except for the fact that we end up with a significant amount of water on the floor afterwards. (Notice the stream coming off the corner of the sponge.)
Mags did a great job loading the dishwasher "properly".


Afterwards, Maggie was actually mad that there weren't more dishes to wash and that she didn't get to do them. (We only had hamburgers tonight...not many dishes). I told her next weekend I'd make a bigger meal with lots of dishes!
