My Kitchen Companion

For a while Trenton has been very jealous of any time I spend in the kitchen. It finally dawned on me that he's old enough to stand on a chair at the kitchen counter without falling off, so up he went. He LOVES, loves, loves it. And I do too! I finally have my kitchen companion back. Granted, it's a lot messier now, because he's banging pots and pans around, pretending to poor water from one sippy cup to another, sampling food, and dusting the whole place with flour (sneaky little guy!). In that way, it's exhausting, but it makes him so happy that I'm happy too. I'll take a picture as soon as I find that camera...

This picture was taken in October. No, it's not quite shorts weather here right now. But still, the weather isn't much to complain about!
