Helping

This weekend we went to help put in laminate flooring at Jer's brothers house.  It was fun to do some construction stuff again.  It is easier when there are others that can help out with little kids... that's for sure. Ada was a pill while we were there though.  She broke Anya's doll fighting over it with Adam, got upset that Rachel didn't want her playing with her Merida doll because she'd broken Anya's doll, and jumped on the toddler bed and split the whole support piece.  When we were trying to put her to bed, I thought she'd have fun sleeping with Anya and Rachel but she threw a fit that the pillow case wasn't flowery like Rachel's.  Sheesh.  I ended up putting her to bed on the couch upstairs. (It was cute because Anya snuck out of her room one last time to play with Ada on the couch.)  Sam said, "I'm not going to go to sleep because I'm not in a bed."  But fell asleep as soon as the lights were off.  Evelyn went to sleep in John and Diane's room.  I put her to bed on the bed...  when we left she had pulled the pillows off the bed and put them on the floor next to the door and dragged a blanket off the bed for her use too.  Funny girl.  She was also my cutest helper.  She'd follow along by me with a mallet and bang on the cement of a block of wood.  Then she'd wander off and come back to ask, "Help you?"  How can you say no to that?
