We're Working

The back stairs on the house had started to fail (and when I mean fail they were close to having someone put a foot through a stair).  Karl decided Sat that he'd replace the stairs and since it was daddy day, Kasen was going to help.  First they had to go get the wood and Kasen went along,  She helped to make sure daddy did it right as seen here, quite the foreman she is:


Once we got home it was time for demo work.  Kasen was right in the mix there helping with measuring (not sure what we were measuring for the demo) and cleaning with her broom.  She also suppled the music, below is a picture of her singing while we work (she hasn't learned to whistle yet).  THe whole tim she kept telling mommy that "We're Working!"


Finally it was time to start cutting the wood and installing it.  The saw was loud so we needed her headphones to make it better, better (as she would say).  She also had to have gloves like daddy.


Once we got it all done (luckily she took a nap for a while so things sped up), she got to play with the drill.  Really she wanted to use it the whole time we were installing the stairs but luckily she was good at getting screws for daddy.  Here she is learning about drills.


Yes, she does crash into Karl at the end of the video.

  1. I appreciate that you let her learn about a drill through hands-on experience...and bravo to Kasen for knowing proper drill etiquette. What fun the Picarbockers have!
