Little Sous Chef

Fresh from a nap and going right for the camera

Sasha made her own sandwiches today. And she was pretty good at it too. She took her little butter knife from her tea set and used it to spread mayo on her bread. In this, she was very careful. Then she put her cheese on it, folded it up, and ate it. She ate two of them!

Her favorite drink in the whole world is chocolate milk. She knows that routine too. Milk goes in her special cup. Then chocolate syrup. Then it gets stirred. When she wants chocolate milk, she opens the refrigerator, gets out the milk and the chocolate syrup, and hands it to us.

She's always been a good helper in the kitchen.
Today she also washed dishes. She has a red plastic ikea chair that she drags up to the kitchen sink. It's the perfect height for her to stand on and reach into the sink. We have to be careful because she does this on her own now and we often find her in the kitchen sink lately. Anyways my husband let her wash dishes on her own today. If the dish was still dirty, my husband put it back in the dirty dishes pile and she eventually rewashed it. She has the whole routine down.
She knows how to make coffee and tea but her parents won't let her do that by herself. If I'm in the kitchen, she's always there with me, standing on her little red chair, supervising and watching my every move.
