Hard Working Baby...

As a part of a weekend project, we dug a spot where we're going to be moving a shed to in the near future. We had a truck load of sand delivered, and all that sand had to be shoveled into place. Ed got out there and got started early Saturday morning, expecting Benjamin to come out and help him when he woke up. Noah and I watched from the house, and it wasn't long before guilt overtook us. We went outside to help daddy (yes, that's mommy's shovel in the trailer... I just HAD to take the photo for a minute).
Noah's "Bumbo" seat was the perfect thing for keeping him close to us (he didn't like laying on a blanket I'd put down for him in the shade), and keeping him entertained while we shoveled all the sand. He liked riding around behind the lawn tractor, and he didn't even put any dirt in his mouth!!
"Hey Mommy, aren't you going to jump on for a ride?" He seemed amazed at the whole process of riding through the yard, and watching us work, while he kicked back in his seat.
Just a peak over the edge, as the trailer went by. He was really getting the hang of this "yard-work" gig. We finished the job, and now we're ready to move the shed in the near future. I wonder how Noah will help us out then?
